Walt Disney’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is a milestone in movie history. Not only did it get the title of the greatest animated film of all time, but it is often referred to as The One That Started It All. In this review, I’ll be looking into what made this movie so beloved for generations and how this masterpiece changed the medium forever, proving to Hollywood that animation can be used to make movies.

What a way to celebrate your 33rd birthday, AniMat, hope you’re having a great one this year! When it comes to the original Snow White, it really goes to show that even a folly can lead to a huge impact on cinema, and the film really goes to show how animation can also be used to make awesome movies! Onto the next review we go, let’s all start the music with a parody of Fantasia, Allegro Non Troppo!

Happy Birthday Mat, this is definitely a fitting way to celebrate it. What can I say about Snow White that hasn’t already been said, it truly is an animated classic and is “The one that started it all” while I wouldn’t call this one of my absolute favorite Disney animated films, I still do really like it a lot, the story is engaging, the animation is absolutely gorgeous, the characters are unforgettable and iconic and the songs like Whistle while you Work and Hi Ho are legendary Disney songs, Overall this truly is a legendary animated film and definitely earns its title as “The one who started it all” and it really did help shape Disney Animation into what it is today. So the next classic review is going to be Allegro Non Troppo, which is definitely gonna be and interesting one.

Happy Birthday Mat! Its funny, Snow White might not technically be the first animated film nor the best animated film, but it sure is the most important.

Happy birthday, buddy! Hope you’re having a fun day so far! Thanks for sharing this review early. I anticipated this since the end of your review of Titantic: The Legend Goes On, and I knew this was going to be one you would put a lot of work into considering how historically important this film is to animation, cinema and the Disney studio and you definitely did great justice to the original animated film with this review while still having the overall final result be well executed. You hit all the right marks in analyzing how this animated film was so successful and continues to be beloved nearly 90 years later. This is definitely one of your best reviews of the year so far, and I’m glad you got another good one to review, being the Fantasia parody Allegro Non Troppo. You can only go up from that animated Titanic review, and unlike that film, this is an Italian animated film that’s good and worthy of attention.

Also, I agree Lucille La Verne gave the best voice performance as the Evil Queen, but I think it’s definitely her performance in the Queen’s old hag form that stands out to me the most. You could clearly tell she was having fun voicing that part of the character and indulging in the wickedness and insanity of her personality. Her performance is over-the-top, sure, but it’s one of those types of over-the-top performances that’s fun as the experience the performer had while performing it.

Hope you had a great birthday and thanks for giving us a review super early because I didn’t know you were gonna upload on a Sunday instead of Wednesday, then I would’ve seen it sooner due to my work schedule. For the movie itself, I do consider it an unforgettable classic film from Disney given this is not only their first feature length film to come out from the studio, but as well as a strong cultural impact for animation that led to Hollywood making a lot of animated films as they are today. I do agree that the film didn’t explore more like the Prince himself or the world building too but I can forgive the flaws as all it was trying to do was to make a simplistic story while trying to experiment their animation as well. The results ends up a great achievement like the animation, voice acting, characters, writing, direction, the soundtrack, and the heart as well is what make the movie be so unforgettable and holds up mostly well in today’s standards. I do wonder what Disney is gonna with the Snow White movie by the time it turns 100 years old as we’re about over a decade away but I hope they do something spectacular by the time it 100th anniversary approaches!

Considering Snow White has a lot deleted scenes that have managed to survive given the age of the film, I wouldn’t be surprised Disney does a special edition version of the film that restores those deleted scenes and even finishes inking and painting them since most of them are animated but just unpainted and uninked.

Sorry if I am late, but I want to wish you a happy birthday Mat. I hope you are doing well and I enjoyed your review of Snow White. I do think the movie is revolutionary cause of how it started, and how you said that it was a testing ground before we can ultimately see how animation will progress over the years. One effect that I am always curious about now that I am older is how they use water with its reflections. I am even more amazed by that and how it still holds up. One funny part was comparing the old Disney princesses to hanging out at Starbucks. That was a curveball I didn’t see coming. But having this conversation regarding Disney’s early princesses is fascinating cause there were only 3 with Snow White, Cinderella, and Aurora from Sleeping Beauty. And how we have progressed since then when it took 30 years to revive the formula and update it when they did The Little Mermaid, it helped allow like you said, more complex and stronger characters characters than just basic ones. It was also something even Walt would recognize years later when he had a screening of To Kill a Mockingbird at his studio. And while it is easy to say an old movie doesn’t live up to today’s standards like you said, I have to remember about its time and try not to do that and judge the feature for what it is. And I appreciate what it is cause of how it is the embodiment of, “The One That Started it All.” And I still love it that when I would go to college and work in the basement of my university’s library, I would parody Hi Ho so I can get to my editing classes and the like. Well it was fun and I can’t wait to see your next review for Allegro no Troppo.
