Diana Riggs Was Amazing With This Role! The Best And My Favourite Role Of Hers. I first saw this in 1990 when I was 6, my daughter and I still watch this together ❤❤❤❤❤

[@andrewtodaro2874]

When she says "TUUURN AWOUND!" LMAO! XD so terrible it's funny!

[@OnlyFinsHI]

Bahahaha damn this as a good movie. I still sing this song here and there to this day :-) "Open the door...uuuuuh. A cwack..." hahahahah

🤣

[@andrewtodaro2874]

Poison crown...NAH! 🤣 Diana Rigg killed is role! No pun intended!

[@daniellevinson6975]

Come to think of it, the stereotypical nature of the Queen's disguise may further illustrate how easily Snow White *should* have been able to see through it.

[@vegetables1593]

Yeah, this Snow White makes the Disney one look like Mulan

[@Sjudit84]

Well...This is my FAVOURTIE adoptation in the whole wide world,and actually this was my fave scene, I have watched it I think more than a million times every since I was like 5...I loved the way the woman talks and how they could disguise her so much with this makeup...and duh, kids don't think about the logical 'you were attacked just a day ago' stuff LOL, don't get adult-like and boring about it...see the meaning, not the outside...

[@theatrekid07]

one of my favorite scenes from the movie!

[@Aramanth]

It is as if the queen shops only at the Wicked Queen Couture and Costume Shop! Come on down Wicked Queens!! We have the perfect look to match your evil black hearts and great costumes that shouldn't fool a naive princess... but they will! lol

[@bunnyandpanda]

that mirror is super freaky

[@icetrey87]

haha I love that scene too. And she's like saying everything as they do it. I have this on VHS somewhere, gonna find it.

[@celloPHANe27]

I love when she's taking the bath in the peacock tub and they start pouring like a gallon of milk on her face! this movie is amazing in it's ridiculousness. I love it.

[@lisamcdonald1014]

Attar of roses, tincture of sandalwood, chamomile, oil of jasmine… Milk

[@Sjudit84]

Why did this part scare so many of you? This was my favourite part, I loved the background music, it was sooo soothing, and I loved how Diana Rigg talked, I mean her strange melody of speaking, I thought she acted foreign really well, bcs most of the ppl when they try to mimic foreign accent, don't change the wordstress pattern, which she did...and I loved that sparkly comb as a child!:D

[@desireepierce9650]

Me too

[@autumnasters]

Because of the lighting in the fact that she's a murderous "geisha" speaking strangely ( because her accent is horrible), with a pale white face that would look very forign children (she doesnt look like a geisha). She looked more like a supervillain. And yellow face rightfully so, should be unsettling to people

[@blerksnarfgut2766]

I LOVED this scene as a kid but I definitely found it disturbing, too. The way the Wicked Queen is dressed as this serene, mysterious geisha and then she basically stabs Snow White in the head, her calm demeanor changing to a crescendo of maniacal cackling and dramatic music. I always loved the way the Queen scurried off through the fog as that ominous score played! It's just a very intense scene, especially for a kid's movie.

[@Dhv118]

the only snow white movie i have loved.. yeah and i was really scared at this scene haha does any one got the full movie ?! please?..

[@tonylares7959]

you can buy the 2005 dvd for $18 at the walmart website!! just search up on "snow white 1987 dvd"

[@jeccabug1]

7 years later and it’s on Amazon Prime 🍎

[@romanaii]

This has made me chuckle so much

[@lisamcdonald1014]

The Asian community were offended by this scene

[@celloPHANe27]

you definitely do! oh man, she's fierce. haha

[@kittybellebelle]

OMT I JUST REALIZED SHE'S MS. HARDBROOM FROM THE MOVIE "THE WORST WITCH"!!! I LOVE HER WITCH WAYS =P

[@andrewcolinwilson1]

I know right. Diana Rigg played a witch in 2 movies. She played a witch in The Worst Witch and in this one too.

[@jamlym4974]

Creepy.

[@kelliconner5216]

I loved this one !

[@EuphrasieF]

Milk (or sometimes buttermilk) is a pretty traditional beauty treatment.

@krzyblnd25 u could always buy it online, but MissLizaMay has posted it on her youtube channel ;) i finally found it now after looking for it all night :D

[@EvanSawyer-rs7dc]

I wonder what my sister would think about this

[@PandoraKyss]

Shit, she looks like Mommie Dearest.

[@andrewtodaro2874]

Poison wire hanger, perhaps?😂

[@lisamcdonald1014]

No pun intended

[@adonishtar]

All these people crying racism probably aren't even Asian. As an east Asian immigrant kid watching this movie, I personally found no offense in this scene. I found it quite amusing.

[@vegetables1593]

Also, let's face it, an evil Queen is probably not the best role model

[@sabre926]

Likewise...she sounded cute with that Asian accent she put on. Kinda reminded me of Lady Tanaka a little bit.

[@xCarlsburgx]

What was the actual movie name?

[@autumnasters]

Cannon tales snow white

[@cintasejarah8271]

2025?

[@finland4ever55]

Update: This is insulting not because she's dressed as a geisha or the traditional Japanese melody in the background and with her song, but the fact that she's not only doing a mock accent, but is actually evil. At least the character of the queen is anti-Japanese. But even then the fact that the filmmakers were able to get away with this is strange, especially considering in the 80s yellowface generally didn't fly and yellowface in media was starting to become rare. This just catches you off guard. Also, young Snow was shown sleeping in one scene with a geisha doll so thats why I don't think the filmmakers were racist. But the two big questions are, why are there geishas being randomly thrown into this movie that not only takes place in Germany, but has nothing to do with geishas? Why is a geisha selling combs, geishas are not merchants they are entertainers.

[@blerksnarfgut2766]

I think the Queen probably remembered Snow White's geisha doll, and figured she'd disguise herself in that manner to endear herself to Snow White, in order to gain her trust. Also, if you notice that when we first see the Wicked Queen in this movie, she's getting dressed by her ladies-in-waiting, and one of them pulls her corset laces too tightly while another accidentally stabs her in the head with a comb, and those were meant as foreshadowing for the ways in which she'd later try to kill Snow White. A lot of stuff with the Queen early on in the movie has a pay-off later on in the movie, which I think was pretty clever scriptwriting.

[@goodsie]

Slightly racist...but I love it anyway.

[@autumnasters]

Yellowface is very racist lol

[@Freemarkets1236]

I was so shocked but laughed my ass off because it’s so bad! Lol

[@autumnasters]

So was yellowface considered to be okay in the 80s?

[@adonishtar]

As an east Asian immigrant, I wasn't offended at all. She's just the evil queen pretending to be Japanese. If you always look for racism, you will find it everywhere, even where there is none.

[@autumnasters]

@@adonishtar well as a lifelong American citizen and a mass media major, I can I assure you that it's not about "look(ing) for racism" it's there. And it's determined by politics, as our country was founded on racism. I don't expect you to understand it, but I would strongly encourage you to read up on the history of yellow face, black face, and red face before commenting any further

[@adonishtar]

@@autumnasters "I don't expect you to understand it" ...Quite condescending with an air of intellectual superiority.

[@autumnasters]

@@adonishtar ...or, you know, history but whatever. lol you came at me with an inherently antagonistic "always looking for racism" accusation. Don't cry now bc I returned that energy right back to you.

[@blerksnarfgut2766]

This isn't yellowface, though. The Queen's face is painted pure white in the style of a geisha but you can't call it yellowface because it simply isn't. Also, let's not forget that the Queen is a villain and isn't concerned with being PC. Any offensiveness on the character's part only adds to her wickedness.

[@FilmSureelist97]

Are we all not going to realize how racist this scene is???? 😳😬

[@finland4ever55]

I agree. Not racist because she's a German dressed as a geisha, but because she's the wicked queen and also puts on a mock accent, so she is not trying to be harmless, she probably actually hates Japanese people. but then as a child they showed Snow White's favorite toy was a geisha doll. Why are there geisha references in medieval Germany? Dunno.

[@FilmSureelist97]

@@finland4ever55 using yellow face in general is racist.

[@finland4ever55]

@@FilmSureelist97 yes

[@romanaii]

Would they get away with it now? As in political correctness

[@finland4ever55]

Probably not, although even in the 80s this was taboo, but this was made by an independent company, so they snuck this past. But considering she's doing yellowface and putting on a mock accent, this is indeed appropriation.
