Disney's shining star

Rating: 8/10 (8 April 2003)

A wonderful film that is one of the most beloved in the entire world. This Disney classic a great favorite of generations of people, a film that never loses its freshness, an adventure that never grows old or becomes dated. A pretty young maiden is the envy of a beautiful but icy, evil queen, who cannot bear the thought of Snow White being "the fairest in the land". The film has many memorable moments, such as Snow White's flight through the dark, forbidding forest from the huntsman's knife, the dwarfs' march home at sunset after a long day in the mines, the queen's frightening metamorphosis from an elegant and regal figure to a wretched, cackling hag, the joyous evening Snow White and the little men spend at their cottage, the witch's flight from the dwarfs in a driving rainstorm to the high, rocky cliffs, watched by two expectant, malevolent vultures, and the moving, somber vigil of the dwarfs and forest animals at Snow White's bier before she is awakened from her eternal sleep by love's first kiss from her prince charming.
