I feel like people tend to forget how older Disney Princesses have their own strengths despite having less depth. Cinderella lives in an abusive household and was treated as a maid than a family member but still, she remains kind instead of the other way around. Snow White may be a princess but compared to the Evil Queen, she has humility and a caring personality. Just simple values like these can make one feel strong in their own way. 😊😊

Technically this honour belongs in an animated film made in Germany in 1929 called "The Adventures of prince Achmed" which was 1 hour and 5 minutes long ( available on KZread For those who wanna watch it ), it's an impressive film no doubt but it has it's short comings .Show White is regarded as the first because A) it was financially successful , making around 800 Million Dollars in it's first year in theaters alone 💵 ( In 1930's money ) which adjusted for inflation surpasses EndGame by a long shot ( adjusted for Inflation the movie made in it's first year around 12 BILLION DOLLARS from ticket sales alone ,not counting profit from merchandise which this film was the first one to have products tied with the film : shoes ,toys .. It was also the first time ever that a film soundtrack was available for purchase with Vinyl discs ), and B) layed the foundation for how animated movies should be done and was the first animation ( in America, in "The Adventures of prince Achmed" the characters move in a somewhat realistic manner , though should be notated that the characters were silhouette puppets made out of cardboard not hand drawn ) to consider actual physics when making the animation.Without it proving that animation can be used for powerful emotional storytelling ( which many Hollywood exec's back in the day believed it couldn't do ) we wouldn't have Anime , which has more grounded animation compared to the 1930's ( compare Olive Oil's movements with Sailor Moon's , which one is more realistic ? 😂😂😂 )

It's crazy that how after almost 100 years this movie still holds up. Walt Disney almost went bankrupt while making this movie and everyone said that he couldn't do it. It ended up being the highest grossing movie of 1937 by quite a large margin. Without this movie, Disney and animation as a whole wouldn't be the same.

I wish I could experience seeing this the way people in 1937 saw this for the first time. There's a radio broadcast of celebrities arriving at the premiere and listening to them talking about it before going into the theater they all sound very much like they're about to go see just an extended kid's cartoon. Accounts of them actually watching it in the theater saw them so emotionally invested that they crying and cheering interchangeably by the end. I guess the closest modern equivalent would be seeing Toy Story for the first time but that's a very different animal altogether

I saw it in re-release when I was a child and was enthralled. When watching something like this, you really have to suspend reality and just enjoy the creative effort, the animation- drawing and painting one cell at a time. Disney developed a camera that would film a few cells layered to give the feeling of depth. He really was a visionary.

My grandma was born ten years before this movie came out! I think she actually saw it during its initial release! And she's still alive and kicking today! Also you should check out some of the stories about what went on behind the scenes, because everyone in Hollywood thought that Walt was crazy to do an animated feature film, they actually dubbed it "Disney's Folly" (Disney's Totally Bad Idea). But he proved the naysayers wrong and the film became a SMASH HIT!

yeah, but I admit to noticing that Snowhite was already a little afraid of the "poor old lady" before letting her in.. At least, as a child I learned the lesson of not talking to unknown people and even less letting them into the house.

This is not a just a film. It is a work of art. This was Walt Disney’s most prided film. He protected it with his life. I hate when people bash this film because it is too boring apparently. And I hate how people hate on Snow White for being boring as well. She is better than people give her credit for.

“The one that started it all.” To this day, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is a charming and fun Disney film. What’s amazing is that it still holds up to this day, being the first full length feature of the Disney company and sets the legacy of beloved classics we still have today.

I actually think there is a reason for why they use love to fight back spells and stuff with these kind of stories. This sleeping death was created through the power of hate, so naturally the antidote would be the opposite, a form of love. I believe it’s just to show children that love is more powerful than hate.

Kind of scary to think that 13 years from now, this film will be 100 years old. A small animation detail I love in this movie is when the Dwarfs are marching home (Heigh Ho) they each have unique walks which go with their names/personalities.

22:26 -- look at Snow dancing! In 1937, NOBODY had seen such complex footwork in an animated character before. In many cases the animators actually filmed real humans moving, broke down the film frame by frame and copied the movements over to their animated characters. Incidentally, an important body-reference model for both Snow White and Dopey was dancer Marge Champion. She lived to be 101, passing as recently as 2020.

25:38, on a historical level, that would be because the tale of Sun, Moon and Talia has the sleeping princess awoken by something that isn’t a kiss but being impregnated in her sleep but when Charles Perrault wrote Sleeping Beauty, he decided that was too disturbing so he changed it to a kiss and so when the Brothers Grimm wrote the German version, they kept it a kiss so Pyotr Tchaikovsky kept it a kiss in ballet. When Walt Disney and the others made Snow White, they decided that her spitting out the poisoned half of the apple after being accidentally dropped off a precipice being the way to wake her up (like in the Grimm’s tale) couldn’t really work so they decided to make it a kiss like in Sleeping Beauty. And after Snow White was a success, other Disney movies imitated what it did. And that’s why it’s so often about True Love’s First Kiss.

All the most important irony with the main villainess of the movie, is that She wanted to be more beautiful than anyone else in the world, so much so that when she learns that there is someone who can outshine her, she decides to get rid of her by letting her die, but in order to achieve her goal, she disfigures herself, turning herself into an old woman, And after that, it itself dies. The irony is that the Queen allowed her arrogance when she could have just let Snow White live and still boast about her own beauty, Instead, she goes to any horrible length, refusing to live with the knowledge that some ragged woman could be more beautiful than her, and all this leads to her death. I would call the Evil Queen the progenitor of all Disney Villains, without whom there would be no iconic characters like Lady Tremaine, Maleficent, Cruella de Ville, Ursula, Scar, Captain Hook, the Horned King, Hades and Claude Frollo.

@oliverbrownlow5615

Ай бұрын

I don't think it bears much resemblance to the John Barrymore transformation, which is accomplished on screen without special effects or makeup, purely through acting.

The reason they say Jiminy Crickets is because it was a common phrase that people said to mean Wow or Gosh or other stronger epithets that might share the initials J.C. The cricket in the original Pinocchio story didn't have a name, and Disney gave him the name of Jiminy Cricket because it was a clever use of that common phrase. So I don't think the dwarves say it as a call-forward to Pinocchio; they're just using it in the common vernacular of the audience at that time. (If you watch "The Wizard of Oz", Dorothy actually says it, too.)

I appreciate all the comments praising this masterpiece. It's always been my absolute favorite and I have two signed portraits from Adriana caselotti (the voice of snow white). She absolutely loved this role up until the very end and the magic is palpable.

I did a whole project about how important this movie. Few fun facts: -The squeaking of the shoes was rubber -Jimminy Cricket was a child friendly way of saying Jesus Christ -The guy who voiced Grumpy also voiced Sleepy -Disney made a Silly Symphony short called The Goddess of Spring to practice animating Snow White in a more realistic way, but it was a failure and they fixed it in the movie

The OG! Yay! I have a special place for this film.

"Jiminy Cricket" was part of the social lexicon long before Disney's Pinocchio, and was a benign and more acceptable alternative to cursing, "Jesus Christ!"

I must have been living under a Disney filled rock all of those years because I had not seen Snow White until the pandemic. I had the option to watch Snow White for my English final (which was a film studies class), but I chose Fantasia instead.

Snow White is one of the first Disney princess movies I ever watched, and she still remains my favourite one. I am so in love with the music from this film and listen to them day after day. I don't think I'll ever get tired of this movies beauty 😍

Two scenes that were cut from the movie both animated by legendary animator Ward Kimball (one of Disney's Nine Old Men). The first one was Music in your Soup which happens directly after the Washing scene where the dwarfs would slurp their soup and Snow White attempting and half-successfully teaching them to eat like gentlemen. Towards the end, Dopey accidently swallows his spoon, prompting the others to help him getting it out of him. They succeed by Happy giving Dopey a great kick in his butt which makes both the spoon and the soap he swallowed in the previous scene, making them fly across and get stuck in the wall to the dwarfs cheering. The other is set late in the movie (probaby after they go to the mines to work) where they figure out what to give Snow White as a gift. Sleepy suggests a bed to which the others agree and start working on one with the help of the animals. They were cut late in prodcution when all animation was done on the former and half done on the other, as Walt thought they slow the story down. Ward Kimball was so discouraged that he seriously consindered to quit but before he could Walt stopped him and promoted him to supervisiing animator and gave him the task to animated Jiminy Cricket for Pinocchio, as a consolation. There was also a bit of The Witch brewing the poison for the apple that was cut for pacing reasons when it was fully complete, coloring and all.

This is my second favorite Disney movie from their classic era. Sleeping Beauty is my favorite.

Disney’s very first movie

Hi Tim how are you doing ? One of my favorite Disney’s movie ! I always have tears about the scene when 7 dwarfs are crying around Snow White when she’s sleeping forever ! 😢😢

You want to talk about this film being dark, every fairy tale-based Disney film is based off an actual fairy tale (ex: Snow White, The Princess and the Frog, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and Tangled were originally from Grimm’s Fairy Tales) The Grimm brothers’ version of this story is even darker

This will be a 100 years old soon!

Right as Snow White is putting Grumpy’s name on his pie(the one dwarf who criticizes Snow White) the witch appears to her.

I have a theory that Snow White really did die and the prince was an angel all along. That's why he takes her to a castle in the clouds. He takes her to Heaven

This movie still brings tears to my eyes. It's like I can feel every drop of emotion and passion the animators poured into it.

As a suggestion now that you've seen this, if you haven't watched Mirror, Mirror, I'd highly recommend it. It's a fantastic and comedic retelling of Snow White.

Snowhite Is a great Disney Classic

Great Snow White movie. Also had some funny moments, too.

Some fun trivia facts/cool stories for you: The phrase Jiminy Cricket is actually a euphemism for the exclamation Jesus Christ. By the time Walt made Pinocchio the meaning had changed to “oh no” or “oh wow” in popular culture due in part to its inclusion in The Wizard of Oz. The voice actress of Snow White, Miss Caselotti, is the female voice you hear during Tinman’s song in The Wizard of Oz. She says “Wherefore art thou Romeo.” Aspects of Snow White’s (the character) animation are very reminiscent of the famous cartoon character Betty Boop who was introduced in 1930. You really notice it when Snow White is scared or surprised. Unsure if this was ever confirmed as a homage or a happy accident. Walt Disney screened the first version of this film to someone he greatly respected (I don’t remember the man’s name) and panicked the whole time because the man didn’t have a single reaction during the screening. Walt walked him to his car and asked him what he thought. The man replied something like “It’s a goldmine, Walt. But the first hour/ last 30 minutes (I don’t remember which it was, saw the documentary with the story many years ago) is awful.” Which made Walt realize two things: he was going prove all his critics wrong and he needed to redo the first hour or the last 30 minutes of his film. A claim was made that Snow White is a thinly veiled metaphor for a young girl’s sexual awakening. To my knowledge, Walt Disney never addressed this accusation.

I believe the man to whom Walt showed an "early" version of *Snow White* was a representative of a bank from which Walt was trying to get a loan to finish the picture. The version of the film Walt showed him was actually unfinished, with some scenes fully animated, some only in pencil tests (black-and-white sketchy animation), others with only storyboards, and some missing entirely that Walt had to narrate and explain. In the telling of the story I read somewhere, the banker is said to have watched it all in stony silence, and then when it was over, he said, "That thing is going to make a Hell of a lot of money." And Walt's loan got approved.

@@oliverbrownlow5615 Fascinating. It’s the same story, but the documentary I watched absolutely said the man was “someone Walt greatly respected.” It’s been so many years since I’ve seen it, though, I only recall snippets. The story was told by one of the animators who worked on films before the 1980s. I think he was retired at the time. He discussed everything from Snow White to The Rescuers.

The dwarves thought Snow White was beautiful and admired her, but not in a sexual way. They were charmed by her sweetness and a bit in awe of her (especially her being a princess).

More scenes with The Prince was planned but because it was so hard for the animators to animate him that they were scrapped. The Queen would capture the Prince and put him in the dungeon where she would torment him by making skeletons come to life and dance in front of him. He'd also be able to escape the dungeon to save Snow White. Those ideas would be recycled for Sleeping Beauty.

8:20, this was in the Grimm’s tale. Where Snow White enters the cottage and she basically acts like Goldilocks. Normally, I wouldn’t bother pointing something like that out but considering Disney movies don’t tend to be that close to the source material, I’m pointing out for this one.

Both snow white and sleeping beauty as well as Cinderella are based on German fairy tales first published by the brothers Grimm in December 1812. Disney has adapted those fairy tales but not created the story line.

I adore this movie Snow White and the seven Dwarfs was the very first Disney Movie I watched when I little, about 4 years old in 1997 and I still adore this movie to this day even in my 30s and I will 100% defend this movie with all my heart I don't care if this movie came out in 1937, I don't care if it came out in 1837, it is perfect the way it is, and I'm certain the 2025 live action with Rachel Zegler will be a failure and has a lot more morals than you realise the dangers of vanity (Evil Queen's motives) the true meaning of "Fairness" it's not just outward beauty (Kindness, gentleness, humble, compassionate) Snow White's Character Snow White dreams of wanting a better life and wanting to find true love (Nothing wrong with that at all, we all desire that) True Love's kiss is a beautiful concept, a kiss is the most beautiful way of showing affection, true love's kiss, is a kiss from someone who truly loves you. Great reaction Tim Thank you for the upload

Disney's first movie ever created if my fact checking is correct

His first full-length feature, yes. He had made many films, going all the way back to the silent movie era, but all of them were shorts.

Without a doubt the foundation of the greatest animation movie company ever

For the dwarfs walking over the creaking floor, an old wallet was used to wiggle it up and down to make a creaking sound. Sound effect man Jimmy MacDonald (who worked at the Disney studio since 1934 up to his retirement in 1989, he invented many gagdets that were used for Disney shorts and features including for the train sounds for Casey Jr. in Dumbo, and took over from Walt Disney as the voice of Mickey Mouse as he became too busy and his throat going sore from smoking too much) did some vocal effects for Dopey such as hiccuping when he accidenly swallowed the soap and sobbing at Snow White's funeral.

The animators to Mr. Disney presenting the forest scene and the Queen’s transformation scene: Think it’ll scare the kids? Mr. Disney: The kids? This’ll give the parents nightmares.

0:18, but this is the first feature film Walt Disney ever made.

Pinto Colvig, who's best known for being the first voice of Goofy, voices both Sleepy and Grumpy. Billy Gilbert who voices Snezy would later voice Willie the Giant in Mikcey and the Beanstalk segment in Fun and Fancyfree.

Billy Gilbert had a long career in live-action movies as well, so varied that it defies easy summation. Fans of classic comedy may remember him as the angry professor in Laurel & Hardy's Academy Award winning short, *The Music Box* (1932).

Yeah this movie holds up insanely well considering it's near 100 years old. Shows how good it is. The animation is on another level I can see why this film was a make or break for Disney. the budget had too be insane

This Disney Movie Is a Masterpiece

I’d like to see you react to the Aristocats. It’s one of the more chill older Disney movies that not a lot of people talk about. But it was one of my favorites growing up.

OMG Snow White has been my favorite Disney Princess for as long as I can remember. I remember dressing up as Snow White when I was younger & always wore that dress for like 3 weeks straight. I wore it to sleep, when I played, etc. Sadly, it ripped off of me. Such great memories. Lol

It must be said that Disney early reached a very high quality of animation. If we compare this movie to 1989's "The Little Mermaid", the animation of the latter is surely _somewhat_ more refined, but not drastically so -- considering that there is MORE THAN HALF A CENTURY between the two films! The basics of the craft had remained the same thoughout five decades.

The evil queen transforming into the witch still haunts me today, it's terrifying!

Walt Disney and his crew definitely made a phenomenal film that withstood the test of time. Even to this day Snow White and the Seven Dwarves isn't just the first Disney animated feature film in their history, but for countless generations. It leaves all of us to ponder over how much he and his animators went through to make it possible. In interviews, some surviving animators and crew people described how audiences reacted to this when it finally released in the late 1930s. There wasn't a dry eye in that theater those decades ago!

I never realized that they keep saying “Jiminy Crickets” but Pinocchio came out 3 years after this!

Fun fact: I dressed up as the Evil Queen from Snow White and The Seven Dwarves for Halloween when I was younger. I still have the costume on this day

I'm not gonna lie, that movie scared me when I first saw it as a kid.

the first animated movie 1938 amazing the years that these movie have

You mean 1937

So I guess you did all Disney princess movies:) Snow White might not be my favourite princess, but I definitely enjoyed the movie as a kid, and yes, the forest scene is a nightmare fuel. And also gotta mention that this was a favourite animated movie of the Austrian painter (if I’m not mistaken)😬

Thanks god I was old enough to not being scared when I saw it for the first time

35:19, a lot of old fairy tales have a formula to them. That said, the love’s kiss thing was in adaptations of Sleeping Beauty already when this movie came out and (at the time) wasn’t part of the Snow White story but when Disney made their Sleeping Beauty movie in 1959 they were heavily influenced by the 1937 Snow White.

The ending was rushed, which explains why some of the dwarfs getting kissed were left out
