Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

 

          Since the release of the latest live action remake, to Snow White and look I know your probably asking if I see it to give you a straight answer, no. And it's not because of the controversies that are occurring since the film’s release, nor the casting choices, it's basically because I'm thirty-eight years old, I don't feel the need to go see this by myself in the theaters moreover the last time I tried that was ten years ago when Cinderella came out and I went to the theaters and I'm lying to you when I say this but it felt really weird when there's a lot of young kids. So, yeah maybe when I'm bored and need to clean the house I may watch it just because everyone hates the movie so much and it's fascinating to see that everyone wants to get out of this toxic mess that we all put ourselves into. And until that time, I'm just going to stick with watching the original film that set the next stage of Walt Disney's success since Mickey Mouse.

          Based on the fairy tale by the Grimm's Brothers. Jealous of Snow White's beauty (like most women are) The Evil Queen devises plan to eliminate her so she can be the fairest in the land. Unfortunately, they all failed, and as most infamous mottos go "can't rely on anyone these days, you got to do everything yourself".

          I've said many times that I don't always have the best memory, but I do remember watching Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs a bunch of times mostly renting the movie from the public Library, and then when I'm not watching the movie I'm usually listening the cartoon an audio cassette tape that I believe? My parents collected or bought for us over the years it was almost the same as my step-grandmother buying me the cassette tape and reading along with 101 Dalmatians. Anyway, the Original Snow White is another one of the many movies I remember seeing moreover another collection in my cousin aka "The Evil Queen" Disney tapes. Though this was one of the many Disney films that I haven't seen in a coon's age, and all I can say in a honest opinion I feel like Snow White's voice sounds a lot like the old Bettie Boop cartoons from the thirties, and I found some clips of Bettie Boop and I paired them with Snow White's voice and they sound similar despite the fact that both characters are voiced by different actresses, for which I may be talking crazy but through the course of the movie that's all I keep thinking about is Snow White sounding a lot like the old Bettie Boop cartoons, even though no one in this generation of Z doesn't even know what I'm talking about. This movie really shows why Walt Disney was hands down a great family movie producer mainly because when getting his studio of cartoon shorts up and running, he knew that he had to be ahead of the game develop his business a step further by starting to make animated movies. Furthermore when the word got out that Disney was making a feature length animated cartoon everyone thought he was crazy because lot of reasons of colored cartoons would do something to your eyes when you look at it long enough a lot of unrealistic reasons, but more importantly this move alone was costing him a lot of money and Disney made a huge gamble in making this the most important animated films ever made. I said earlier about Sleeping Beauty filming live action scenes as inspiration for the characters well, Snow White was the first of Disney films that filmed actors to get that inspiration for the human characters because it was getting to be a difficult process to draw these human characters and sure drawing the Dwarfs or animals we're not a difficult process because you can make them big, small or stretch them out but, with human characters it was a different kind of animal as characters like Prince Charming was cut back a lot mainly because it was difficult to draw the man. And Disney again like Sleeping Beauty had to film actors so the animators can get inspiration for movement as well as how they can storyboard each sequence, so Disney when you think about was the Godfather of animation. The interesting thing I found out while watching the movie, is the Evil Queen breaking the fourth wall and this was while she was creating the poison apple and through the course is talking to herself as well as looking at us through the screen and all I can think of is Deadpool not being the first character to break the fourth wall it was the Evil Queen, for which I'm surprised Ryan Reynolds never made reference in Deadpool and Wolverine. Like most Disney animated films, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is most certainly a great film as well as an important film for the ages furthermore a movie for any parent who has kids to have their own younglings watch and have a great time. If you’re not comfortable having your kids watch the latest Snow White, then I would highly recommend watching the original film on Disney Plus mainly because any of Walt Disney's earlier films are always a great nostalgia to watch from beginning to the very end.
