Best Fridge 35mm Film, Is It True The Best Place To Store Them Is In The Fridge?

35mm Film, Is it true the best place to store them is in the fridge? - best fridge

I had just developed a 35mm film and the colors are very "washed". I was in a cupboard in my kitchen, which can naturally be very hot when I'm kept on cooking. My developer says that the best place to save the movies to put in the fridge. I've heard that before, but is it really a safe place to store my movies, both used and unused?. You do not want to risk unused film or I risk with precious memories.
