| SYNOPSIS
|
Disney's
first full-length animated masterpiece features all the elements
of a classic fairy tale--a beautiful heroine, an evil queen, Prince
Charming...and a septet of whistling dwarfs. In hiding from her
jealous and wicked stepmother, the fair Snow White takes refuge
with a band of kind-hearted, hard-working dwarves: Bashful, Sneezy,
Sleepy, Happy, Grumpy, Dopey and Doc. Eventually the vain queen
finds Snow White and tricks her into eating a poisoned apple. Luckily,
a wandering prince comes to her rescue, but can he break the evil
queen's spell?
Based
on the Brothers Grimm fairy tale, SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS
was initially thought a crazy idea for a feature film by those at
Walt Disney. However, its lush production and charming characters
proved otherwise. Standing the test of time since its release in
1937, the film has entranced audiences for decades, teaching them
to never be vain and always whistle while they work.
