Leave your thoughts about Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
| Groucho ReviewsPeter CanaveseOne of the most important films in the history of popular cinema, and film fans must never forget the incredible achievement it was in 1937. [Blu-ray] |
| Miami HeraldRene RodriguezThough the film isn't as psychologically penetrating as some of Disney's later work, it retains the Freudian ferocity of the Grimm brothers fairy tale, as well as a fair measure of the scatological humor of the Disney shorts. David Hand was the supervising director, but Uncle Walt passed on every frame. |
| Los Angeles TimesCharles SolomonSome of the subsequent Disney features--notably "Pinocchio"--are technically superior, but the animators never surpassed the emotional depth they achieved in Walt's "folly." "Snow White" carries her 50 years very lightly. |
| IGNJeremy ConradWhere Citizen Kane changed the way live action films were looked at and made forever, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs did the exact same thing for animation. It remains one of the finest examples of the art form, and anyone who considers themselves a film snob or animation fan must have this on their shelf. |
| New York Daily NewsKate CameronPerfectly delightful screen entertainment. The film is as charming as it is novel in conception and execution and it is so bound to appeal as strongly to grown-ups as to youngsters. |
| VarietyJon C. Flinn Sr.There has never been anything in the theatre quite like Walt Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, seven reels of animated cartoon in Technicolor, unfolding an absorbingly interesting and, at times, thrilling entertainment. So perfect is the illusion, so tender the romance and fantasy, so emotional are certain portions when the acting of the characters strikes a depth comparable to the sincerity of human players, that the film approaches real greatness. |
| Chicago ReaderDave KehrThough the film isn't as psychologically penetrating as some of Disney's later work, it retains the Freudian ferocity of the Grimm brothers fairy tale, as well as a fair measure of the scatological humor of the Disney shorts. David Hand was the supervising director, but Uncle Walt passed on every frame. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonIt luxuriates in the art of animation, watching the various animals race through the woods, or watching Snow White running scared from an array of imaginary horrors. |
| ReelTalk Movie ReviewsDonald J. LevitSome early sequences seem a tad uncertain, but a little way in all becomes surer of itself and, for now going on eighty years ago, a miracle. |
| Film Freak CentralBill ChambersSuch a quixotic undertaking in historical context that it was obviously made by someone with something to prove. |
