The first feature-length cartoon from Walt Disney remains a masterpiece of animation to this day. Follow beautiful princess Snow White (voiced by Adriana Caselotti) as the evil schemes of her jealous stepmother, the Queen, send her fleeing for her life through the forest and to the cottage of seven little miners (Bashful, Doc, Dopey, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, and Sneezy) who become Snow White's guardians. Songs include "Heigh Ho," "Someday My Prince Will Come." Also voiced by Lucille La Verne, Pinto Colvig. 83 min. Standard; Soundtracks: English DTS HD 5.1 Master Audio, DVS Dolby Digital stereo, French DTS HD 5.1 High Resolution, Spanish Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles: English (SDH), French, Spanish. Two-disc set. Review: A Classic Film - Made in 1937, Walt Disney was told that he was taking a huge gamble in producing a cartoon lasting some 80 minutes or so which was unheard of at the time. However, many years later, it is now recognised as one of his finest creations and one of his most popular ever. The story, quite simply, a beautiful princess has a jealous stepmother, the queen who plots to have her killed. She escapes when her would be assassin cannot carry out the deed, so she escapes into the forest until she finds by accident a cottage where the 7 Dwarfs live. These scenes between Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs are some of the best of this wonderful movie, exploring every emotion possible. The final scenes though are some of the most emotional ever, so even if you have seen it before, it still tugs at the heart strings With the ever growing popularity of Blu-Ray it isnt surprising that this classic movie should end up on the new format. Bearing in mind the age of the movie though, it isnt pin-sharp; indeed some scenes are a little soft in detail. But, this enhances its charm and I for one do not have a problem with that. The movie is shown in 4:3 format and accessing the menu page you can add Disney View which provides coloured pillars which change from scene to scene either side of the screen instead of black bars. The soundtrack is very good too, in surround sound if you have a home cinema system. The extras abound on the second disc and will keep fans happy for hours. With prices of Blu-Ray discs coming down, it is a good buy even though some critics will say that it is cheaper to buy the ordinary DVD version and upscale it. It is a choice for the purchaser of course. However, I will definetly recommend the Blu-Ray Version. Review: Classic movie - Classic movie

A Classic Film
Made in 1937, Walt Disney was told that he was taking a huge gamble in producing a cartoon lasting some 80 minutes or so which was unheard of at the time.

"And They Lived Happily Ever After..."
The final words of the film, above, are perhaps just as important to the film industry (and, indeed culture) as the opening sequence of a grand old book being opened. 'Snow White' just about sums up why Walt Disney was a special individual. This is perhaps more prevalent when comparing the film to his second outing, Pinnochio, which is undoubtedly his masterpiece when it comes to artwork and technicality, where you can clearly understand how this film was a learning curve for both Disney and his artists. But Snow White is just special - it is the natural progression of Walt's storytelling that makes this 'the' perfect fairy-tale. The film is so compact and neat that no scene is ever without a purpose, leaving little room for the viewer to rest from the story. What's also apparent is a delightful innocence in the script and style of dialogue, leading the main characters to explaining actions and thoughts much more directly and thoroughly as if the film was indeed a childs picture-book. This youthful nature makes Snow White much more idealistic and safe than any Disney film after, which is purely down to Disney becoming more ambitious. The animation of this film is easily up their with Disney's Top 3 (Snow White, Pinocchio and Fantasia), and offers probably the best landscaping artwork of all his films - it's that beautiful. The character artwork isn't as texturized as later films, but uses block colours for simplicity which is indefinitely more effective for the story-book feel. Don't forget about the immense technical advances that were not only discovered during production, but made just for the film (inevitably, being used for every animation after). Not only was Snow White the first feature length animation in Technicolor, but it was the first to be Multi-Planed (multiple 'cels' placed above each other to create the illusion of depth), the first to be rotoscoped with live actors, and the first animation to be nominated and earn awards. Not bad, eh? If you've never seen Snow White before, then you may be genuinely surprised and, hopefully, delighted at just how neat and tidy it is as a film. To some, this may be seen as a weakness because the story is inevitably predictable and in many respects primitive to latter standard, but their is a point being missed here. Disney was the father of 'the happy ending' - the single most important feature of Disneyfication. He took an old fable about a princess, and turned it into an idealistic, dreamlike experience that has become timeless. The way in which he did it, I've found hard to describe, but Snow White remains both the bench-mark and the framework for tales of later films. And if you're not welling up in the eyes by the end, then make sure you're watching the right film!

Biancaneve è una bellissima principessa, che vive con la matrigna malvagia e vanitosa. Quest'ultima, chiede ogni giorno al suo specchio magico "chi è la più bella del reame". Quando lo specchio le risponde che Biancaneve è più bella di lei, l'invidiosa regina ordina ad un cacciatore di uccidere la fanciulla. Biancaneve allora è costretta a fuggire nel bosco e trova rifugio nella casetta dei sette nani, i quali la ospitano volentieri. Ma la regina non si da per vinta: usando la magia per travestirsi da vecchia, va dalla principessa e la inganna facendole mordere una mela avvelenata. I nani, dopo aver trovato Biancaneve morta, la mettono in una bara di vetro e vegliano su di lei. La fanciulla ritorna in vita quando viene baciata da un principe. Era il lontano 1934 quando Disney annunciò la produzione del suo primo lungometraggio animato. Il suo progetto sembrava impossibile all'epoca, ma alla fine il nostro Walt, dopo aver speso soldi, tempo e tutte le sue energie, riuscì a regalarci questa meraviglia: delle animazioni eccezionali, delle scene d'impatto e una grafica incredibile. Anche la caratterizzazione dei personaggi è resa bene: non credo serva soffermarsi sui fantastici nanetti o sulla regina cattiva. La protagonista è spesso oggetto di critiche da parte di chi la definisce 'troppo sdolcinata, mielosa, ingenua'. Ricordatevi che quelli erano altri tempi. Al giorno è naturale che il pubblico impazzisca per una Principessa che mette k.o. un cacciatore, oppure per un'altra che colpisce gli avversari a suon di padellate. Ma Biancaneve è Biancaneve: è giusto che sia pura, innocente e che abbia un pò di lato materno; perchè è questa la sua vera bellezza. Biancaneve e i sette nani è impeccabile per essere un film del 1937, non solo per la sua perfezione grafica, ma soprattutto per l'atmosfera musicale e fiabesca che coinvolge lo spettatore e lo porta al di fuori della realtà, quell'atmosfera che, d'ora in poi, caratterizzerà quasi tutti i film d'animazione, Disney e non. Un vero capolavoro da trasmettere alle successive generazioni.

Ich beziehe mich ausschließlich auf die limitierte Sammleredition in der schönen Samtbox. Zum Film äußere ich mich nicht mehr, er ist einfach ein grandioser Klassiker. Zunächst einmal muss ich sagen, dass ich erst spät zu dem Glück gekommen bin, diese schöne Sammleredition zu besitzen. Glücklicherweise habe ich über den Amazon Marketplace ein Schnäppchen machen können und die Box sogar zu einem günstigeren Preis erworben, als er damals zum Release war. Das ist ein echter Glücksgriff bei einer so streng limitierten Auflage. Nun zum eigentlichen Objekt der Begierde: Die Samtbox ist größer als ich erwartet habe. Und schwer ist sie. Das macht schon Eindruck und zeugt von Qualität. Sie ist rundherum mit Samt überzogen (auch an der Unterseite). Das dunkle Rot erinnert - wie im Märchen erwähnt - an Schneewittchens Lippen rot wie Blut. Dazu die Goldschrift und Zierde. Das ist wirklich hübsch gemacht. Klappt man den Deckel der ansehnlichen Schachtel auf, erwartet einen gleich die kleine rote Samtschatulle, in der die 8 Pins untergebracht sind. Jeder einzelne Pin ist wunderschön anzusehen und sie wirken sehr edel mit ihrer goldfarbenen Umrandung. Die Aufmachung mit dem weltbekannten Szenenbild, auf dem die sieben Zwerge über einen umgekippten Baumstamm in den Feierabend marschieren und dabei singen, ist wirklich eine zuckersüße Idee. Die Pins werde ich niemals aus dieser Schatulle nehmen um sie irgendwo anders heran zu pinnen, denn sie gehören dort herein als gemeinsames Kunstwerk. Als Bonus ist ja noch ein Pin mit dem Cover enthalten, welches sich auch auf dem ebenfalls enthaltenen Buch widerfindet. Alle wichtigen Figuren des Films sind auf diesem Pin verewigt. Wenn man die Sammlerbox dann weiter erkundet, stößt man als Nächstes auf die Blu-ray Hülle im schön gestalteten, geprägten Pappschuber. Darin befinden sich 3 Discs. Eine Blu-ray mit dem Film und einigen Extras, eine weitere Blu-ray nur mit Extras und eine DVD mit dem Film. Danach kommt der "doppelte Boden". Innen ist diese Box übrigens in blau gehalten. Man klappt nun also den Boden wie eine Flügeltür auf und tadaaa: Es kommen das Echtheitszertifikat und die Kunstdrucke von Schneewittchen und jedem der sieben Zwerge zum Vorschein. Das Echtheitszertifikat macht schon was her. Hier wird noch einmal bestätigt, dass es sich bei diesem Sammlerobjekt um eine Auflage von nur 2.000 Stück handelt. Nachdem man die 8 Kunstdrucke ausgiebig bewundert hat, kommt ein weiteres Highlight zum Vorschein: Das "Making-Of Schneewittchen"-Buch würde ich es nennen! Es erwartet einen ein massives, dickes Buch, das wie bereits bei einem der Pins erwähnt, das gleiche Cover aufweist. Am Einband des Buches findet sich das Goldmuster auf rotem Untergrund wie auf der Samthülle der Box wider. Das Buch zeigt einen ausführlichen Einblick in die Produktion des ersten abendfüllenden Zeichentrickfilms und man kann einfach stundenlang darin schmökern. Für mich - als Disneyfan von Kindesbeinen an und mittlerweile leidenschaftliche Sammlerin - ist diese Collector's Edition ein wahrer Schatz, der aus meiner Sammlung nicht mehr wegzudenken ist. Ein hoher Kaufpreis ist für "Normalos", die keinen Wert auf diesen Schnick-Schnack legen sicher viel Geld. Aber mir ist so eine Box jeden Cent wert. Sie wird sich zwischen meinen anderen Sammlereditionen sowie weiteren Disney-Titeln und Produkten auf einem Ehrenplatz einreihen und mich immer wieder mit ihrem Anblick erfreuen. Ich bin froh, wenn auch erst so spät, eines dieser begehrten und seltenen Exemplare ergattert zu haben.
