The Grimm fairy tale gets a Technicolor treatment in Disney's first animated feature. Jealous of Snow White's beauty, the wicked queen orders the murder of her innocent stepdaughter, but later discovers that Snow White is still alive and hiding in a cottage with seven friendly little miners. Disguising herself as a hag, the queen brings a poisoned apple to Snow White, who falls into a death-like sleep that can be broken only by a kiss from the prince.

Caroline Siede

Girl Culture (Substack)

Narratively and thematically, Disney princess films would evolve quite a bit over the next 88 years. But tonally and visually, Snow White set a template Disney has never entirely moved away from.

To say of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs that it is among the genuine artistic achievements of this country takes no great daring.

"Masterpiece" and all the other enthusiastic words that are to be lavished upon [Snow White] seem too heavy a burden to bear for anything spun with such gracious, heart-warming charm, woven from the stuff of dreams.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs' live-action remake might be getting eviscerated by critics, but the O.G. Disney Princess movie is a timeless gem.

If I were asked to list the most important movie activity of 1937 ten years from now, I should have only one item to report: Walter Disney made a full length picture. And this one event may save the industry as it is now organized.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is a solid 3.5-star animated classic that I found enjoyable. As Disney’s first full-length animated feature, it holds historical significance with its charming story, memorable characters, and beautiful hand-drawn animation. While some aspects feel a bit dated, its timeless appeal, iconic moments, and enchanting fairy tale atmosphere make it a foundational Disney masterpiece.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

What an excellent movie!! I will take my granddaughter to see this!! The only parts that were cut out needed to be (violence). A most enjoyable movie. You used all different cultures as we see in the real world. This movie should win awards all the way across the board AND I will watch it again. Very well made and excellent choice of people to play various parts. I was most happy to see that. Thank you for putting out a movie with the variety of actors with such exquisite taste!!!!

🎨 Animação: impressionante para a época e ainda bonita hoje e partes me traumatizam 😱 Impacto emocional: cenas como “SEPULTADA VIVA!” e “FUJA PARA BEM LONGE!” são muito fortes 🎶 Trilha sonora: marcante mesmo com simplicidade (Ohhh e Ahhh) 👑 Vilã: muito bem construída, imponente e memorável 😂 Anões: carismáticos, Dunga é destaque absoluto ❤️‍🔥 Crítica: romance mal desenvolvido (o príncipe basicamente aparece e pronto) 👧 Personagem principal: ingênua, mas você reconhece que faz sentido pela idade

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) is a beautifully simple film with stunning animation for its time. The music, characters, and storytelling all come together in a way that still holds up nearly a century later. It’s easy to see why this film launched a whole legacy of Disney princesses. A true classic that deserves its place in history.
