The data of this research are the culturally-bound words in Frozen movie. The source of data are both script by Jennifer Lee and official subtitle that rewritten. To establish and enhance the credibility and dependability in this study, theoretical triangulation is used. Data analysis reveals some findings covering the formulated research questions. Throughout the movie, the researcher finds 101 culturally-bound words which are separated in five categories, material culture; custom, activities, and organization; ecology; gestures and habits; and social culture. The strategies used are literal translation, cultural equivalent, transference, reduction, naturalization, modulation, couplet procedures, descriptive equivalent, through translation and shift/transposition. A movie translator should accurately choose the best strategy in translating culturally-bound words since a word, sometimes, need a deeper explanation in order to cope gaps between SL and TL culture. Thus, choosing strategies appropriately may help the cultural message of the movie can be received well by the viewers.
