The Grimm fairy tale gets a Technicolor treatment in Disney's first animated feature. Jealous of Snow White's beauty, the wicked queen orders the murder of her innocent stepdaughter, but later discovers that Snow White is still alive and hiding in a cottage with seven friendly little miners. Disguising herself as a hag, the queen brings a poisoned apple to Snow White, who falls into a death-like sleep that can be broken only by a kiss from the prince.

Hey, Tim, I don’t know if you know but Snow White is the very first Disney film

[@BatmanFan76]

Not only this is a classic Disney movie, this is pretty much the first ever full-length Disney movie. It’s so amazing to see that Disney actually started off with a simple fairy tale like Snow White. No matter what anyone has to say about the movie, without it we wouldn’t have The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, The Lion King or any of these other Disney classics. This truly is a major animated gem.

[@mollylea2643]

First full-length animated movie, period!

[@Isabelle-qq2yu]

Without this, we probably wouldn’t have had animated movies in general

[@alexp.d3689]

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 KZbin 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 ? 😂😂😂 )

[@BatmanFan76]

@@alexp.d3689 Well, I said this was the first full-length Disney movie, and The Adventures of Prince Achmed is not Disney. So, this is first for Disney only.

[@alexp.d3689]

@@BatmanFan76 You're right,I noticed the " DISNEY " part at the end of the first sentence in your comment after I read your reply . A fun fact you might not know is that technically ( though under a different Studio,still owned by Disney but Walt Disney Studios wasn't his first studio ) Cinderella came before Snow White because Disney, in his first Studio " Laughogram Studios " made a short in 1922 based on Cinderella,so technically Cinderella is the first Disney Princess ( this was ment as a joke, don't come for my head 💀🤣🤣🤣🤣,it is true though that Walt attempted to adapt Cinderella before he did Snow White )

[@ashgreen3646]

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.

[@MegaWicked89]

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!

[@jamesa.romano8500]

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

[@auapplemac1976]

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.

[@SpacialRend7]

“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.

[@MTTT19]

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.

[@oliverbrownlow5615]

And it will enter the public domain nine years from now, in 2033.

[@justinperez2057]

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.

[@AlexG-bb8ql]

Snow White is a big example of optimistic resilience, she faces terrible situations with a smile and a song, and she has a ton of very necessary life skills that allowed her to negotiate her safety and comfort with the animals and the dwarfs, truly a wonderful role model for all children.

[@margeryojije7862]

Exactly! That’s why she’s one of my favorite Disney princesses 😍🥰

[@youngkc866]

The way the Queen gets SW to let her into the house is chillingly spot on to how some real murders and serial killers operate. Not that different from Ted Bundy pretending to be disabled so that young women would take pity on him and "help" him - giving him the opportunity to strike

[@darrylvarney9837]

Or like that guy Buffalo Bill in Silence of the Lambs getting the daughter into the back of his van by asking her to help move the mattress because he was "handicapped"

[@SilvanaPuris2310]

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.

[@shaunamoran71]

I’ve always liked the fact that despite Grumpy’s attitude towards Snow White, he really does care about her. Also, fun fact (or not so much): The queen actually suffered a worse fate in the original story. She was made to dance in hot iron shoes until she died.

[@Cenindo]

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.

[@darrylvarney9837]

I like how Snow is way more proactive than people make her sound compared to the newer Princesses. Her and Cinderella were way more resilient than they get credit for

[@princesserika9899]

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. 😊😊

[@henrymanley4116]

2:27, I used to think that quite a lot when I was little, yeah the main connection Snow White and Cinderella have is the stepmother forcing them to do chores; or more generally, they're both known for a lot of cleaning.

[@John_Locke_108]

The animation in this film is so absolutely amazing. Computer animation doesn't hold a candle to this. Hand drawn animation has so much more heart and soul.

[@ShadowFallRising]

To Snow's credit, in the original fairy tale, she's fourteen. So, she's young and naive. Plus, being in a castle all the time, especially as a maid, she probably didn't really interact with other people.

[@jamesa.romano8500]

Especially compared to the original where the Queen pulls the same trick on her three times and she falls for it each time. This version may be naive but her body language that she's uncomfortable even after being told about the wishing apple and has to be gently pushed into complying

[@darr12100]

Yep. Pretty much all of the Disney princesses are teenagers.

[@missanne2908]

No, in the original fairy tale Snow White is seven years old, and there is no mention that the queen ever forced her to be a maid. She never met the prince before waking up, which not due to the prince's kissing her, but that her coffin was jostled and the piece of poison apple fell out of her throat. Walt Disney changed the facts around to make it more palatable to the thirties audience.

[@cromwellpictures7546]

Snow White will be 100 years old in 13 1/2 years time and it still looks very beautiful today. Walt and his animation team did such a great job on this movie that it still looks so great almost a whole century later. 😁😁🤩🤩🤩

[@richardzinns5676]

This was the first full length animated movie ever made, and the prevailing wisdom at the time was that there would be no audience for such a thing and that Disney would go bankrupt; people were nicknaming the movie Disney's Folly while it was being made. I understand that the scene of the queen's transformation into the old hag was inspired by a movie version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde - not the then recent Fredric March version, but the old silent John Barrymore version.

[@oliverbrownlow5615]

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.

High Ho Let’s Go - The original names of the Dwarfs before Disney renamed them were Snick, Glick, Blick, Flick, Plick, Whick & Quee which after giving them the iconic names some animators were opposed to the name Dopey by saying it was too modern especially for a fairy tale, but Walt Disney made the argument that William Shakespeare used the word in one of his plays which he did not - Speaking of Dopey there was going to be a prequel focusing on the Dwarves in particular explaining why Dopey is mute - To get the Old Hag voice Lucille La Verne (the Wicked Queen) where after she stepped away from a recording session then came back with that perfect Old Hag voice with stunned them & after asking how she did it all she said was ”Oh, I just took my teeth out” - Disney Studios in Burbank was built from the profits from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs movie

[@matityaloran9157]

6:02, this infamous scene in the movie where Snow White enters a spooky forest and it looks like everything is trying to kill her. It actually was in the Grimm’s tale. Which surprised me since it seemed to me to be something that lends itself more to a visual medium but it’s in the book

At the time, that was called "Disney's folly" , everyone thought no one would never watch a cartoon this long... the premiere was an explosive success, and Walt even won an Oscar for the best movie, even though there wasn't an Oscar for animation! A little girl whose name was SHIRLEY TEMPLE gave the Oscar to Walt, a very special one: One regular Oscar statue with seven smaller statues. Walt Disney and his crew put all of themselves on this project, they risked it all, and they won! They created a new genre, a whole new world of possibility, where the sky was the limit. That was the golden era of animation, with lots of brilliant people creating masterpieces, pure works of art. Sadly, modern studios and animators (ESPECIALLY Disney studios) have lost the way, no more creativity, no more courage, no more true animation... Walt would be so disappointed!

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.

[@Avileable2]

It’s fun to think that Snow White as far as production goes is really a Cinderella story. Disney poured his all in this venture and basically the entire world thought it was going to fail and bankrupt him. It was a massive success and was the very first feature length animated film and the start of Disney’s Movie career. There’s a few documentaries on how it came to be you should really check it out and maybe even react to it. It paved the way for his first five features ( Snow White, Pinocchio, Bambi, Dumbo, Fantasia) I believe is how the order goes.

[@oliverbrownlow5615]

Not quite. The order is *Snow White* (1937), *Pinocchio* (1940), *Fantasia* (1940), *Dumbo* (1941), and *Bambi* (1942).

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.

[@kailyns8159]

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.

[@morganghostbusters-egonfan]

I love The Wizard of Oz. That’s such a timeless classic

[@oliverbrownlow5615]

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.

[@kailyns8159]

@@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.

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!

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.

[@matityaloran9157]

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

[@misterjuju4170]

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 ! 😢😢

[@SpacialRend7]

Yes, the sleeping death bit in Snow White is a similar trope that Sleeping Beauty has. Only, the two film’s differs from each other with the objects that deal the main characters in, them being a poisonous apple and a spindle.

[@ScooterBond1970]

Of course they use "sleep" so that there can be a hope of rescue. With "death", the only out would be to magic her back as a zombie/revenant. Too scary!

I love the live action Snow White from 2001 Snow White fairest of them all starring Kristin kreuk and Miranda Richardson. I watched that version too when I was younger. So nostalgic for me and a bit goofy, but creepy in parts! Would recommend! I haven’t seen anyone react to it online.

[@armandoucles5346]

This is not only the greatest animated film of all time, it's also one of the greatest films ever made. It's a work of art and shame on Disney for making a live action "remake" of this. You don't touch the classics, especially the one that launched the legacy that is Disney.

[@16taysia]

I actually still have a Grumpy dwarf hoodie that I bought from Goodwill 15(?) years ago and I 🩷 it lol 😊 Edit: Dopey is my favorite dwarf though 😂😂😂

[@sockygaldamez9492]

Snow White is not only the the first Disney movie ever but it’s such classic film and probably one of the best fairytales ever ❤️❤️ the songs are amazing and I love the characters Snow’s great, the dwarfs are awesome and The Evil Queen is a great villain 👸 Also I love a good Happily ever after and happy Snow and the Prince got to be together 🤩 and it’s so amazing you finally watched it Tim and enjoyed it 😁😃😊

[@ChristaBlack-gn8ys]

I used to rewatch my old vhs tape of this movie on repeat as a child 😂💖

[@videohistory722]

10:41 that's the same ticking noise they use on the clock on It's a Small World After All

[@SprayInk-Kreatïv-Nouveau]

WAIT A SECOND, THIS IS FROM 1937?! HOW IS IT COLORED

[@alexp.d3689]

Disney greatly improved the Grimm's story, for starters Disney's Snow White was inspired and quite heavily based on a 1916 film ( available on KZbin for free for those interested ) which itself was a straight adaption of an early 1900's play loosely based on the Grimm's final version of Snow White from 1857 ... Thing's such as Snow White being a servant or her getting led to the dwarf's house by animals ( specifically a little bird she rescued ) and cleaning it and the dwarfs washing their hands ( even the subplot of Cinderella's mother's dress from Cinderella ) as well as the character of the old witch are directly lifted from that 1916 film which was public domain ever since 1934 ( copyright at the time lasted for around 27 years, also Pinocchio started production around 1938/39 ) ... The queen in the Grimm's tale just dressed in rags and putted paint on her face, Snow White gets tricked 3 times,comes back to life waaaay too easily effectively trivialising death and lowering the stakes,the queen uses next to no persuasion and never makes sure the did is done successfully ...The character's in the Grimm's version are straight up retarderd,as for the queen's cruel fate, it's pure sock value for the shake of it "sure the protagonist who's being described to the reader as being literal JESUS in terms of piety and KINDNESS would watch her own mother getting tortured Infront of her without ... OH,I DON'T KNOW ... SPEARING HER LIFE ?! Since she's so kind you'd think she'd give her a second chance ... Or you can just completely ignore her previously established core trait for cheap scare, making her look like a psychopath ,that works too I guess ...🙄 They did something similar with Aschenputtel where in order to give more insight to the stepmother's character the prince becomes much stupider than he already was ,at least it's ending had a moral and like in Disney's version of the queen's demise it comes from supernatural forces not the characters themselves ... The resolution is also worse in Grimm's,she just spits the piece of apple 🍎 stuck in her throat , that's it ... ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ Disney's resolution had a set up, build up and pay-off,the Queen makes sure her plan is ful proof and dismisses the antidote believing that Snow White will just be buried ALIVE ( and she laughs about it, also she has a Very impressive collection of skulls look at the background .. ). The Queen uses previously established information to manipulate her into biting it ( seeing Snow flirting with the prince at the begining and indirectly helped her achieve her dream by putting her into this position which created a chain of events leading to the ending.Also kinda saying that even the bad things we experience could lead to better things down the road ) . And two last things, during her first meeting with the dwarfs she mentions she can make Gooseberry pie, right before she meets the old woman she makes ... 🥁 Gooseberry pie 🥧, leading the queen to comment on how apple 🍎 pies are better and give her an apple to try ( in the book it's like : here I'll share one with you ,pulls out the basket an apple that's half white half red nothing sus about that 😂😂😂. You fear it might be poisoned? I'll bite from the white half and you from the red half _ Snow White : Sure a few days ago woman who looked almost identical to you offered me free stuff and tried to kill me,but I see nothing wrong with what you're proposing ... "Face palm 🙄 " ), also the guy who created Snow White's final look and animated her, was the same guy who designed and animated Betty Boop ( also the Actress for the Queen voiced the old hag by removing her false teeth, and Adriana Caseloti who Voiced Snow White got the part by accident. Same happened with Illein Wood's who Voiced Cinderella,she was a singer and rsdio host who recorded the song demos as a favour to friends )

[@Aurora-Welch]

Snow White and the seven dwarfs was the first fully animated movie not just for Disney but for animation. 22:45 True. 26:25 14, Snow White was 7 in the original fairytale.

The Film That Started It All!!

[@jessicahedman3048]

the classic Classic!

[@matityaloran9157]

12:47, yeah but I think they’re more focused on the fact that they have a trespasser

[@o.bfanboy]

Every second d of this movie is 30 pictures

[@eah4452]

so magical

[@advantasya1995]

So Classic(1937)😍

[@Bubblejazz6]

I loved this movie as a child, and I still love it, I loved the animation of that time and how you could tell a story that can be for both children and adults❤ (By the way, good choice of Disney classics)

[@jessquinn6106]

Alot dark secrets hide behind this film, starting with the girl that did the voice of Snow White was barely paid anything and was never given credit in the release of the film for YEARS.

[@AnnieUdrit]

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)😬

[@a.g.demada5263]

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

[@Lucas-Stl]

5:35 Fun Fact: I don't remember where I got this fact, but from what I know; the Huntsman, Samson I believe his name was, the reason he hesitated and let Snow White go was because of his own daughter who would have been Snow White's age had he not lost her to illness when she was young.

[@meganlutz7150]

Have you seen The Sword in the Stone ? One of my favorite animated classics.

[@christinacostello9800]

This movie gave me nightmares as a child Now I'm watching it as I'm 30Yeah this is a good movie ❤❤❤❤

[@nathancruz9172]

This is the first Disney animated movie in golden age of history.

[@simondesbiens2463]

Ah enfin !!!mon Disney préféré Quel bonheur !!!ce film est tellement âge d’or d’Hollywood🤩 merci Tim 😘

[@FilmNerdy]

Excellent reaction. I truly think Snow White is a very underappreciated film for modern audiences bar people acknowledging it as the one that started it all. I think there are a lot of things going for it. I am very anxious of them making a new live action as I think 90% of them have been rubbish/not good and very bold move. Will have to wait and see. Anyway, great reaction ❤😊

[@kirara2516]

No, my guy. it's not "one of the first" animated movies ever made. It's "THEE First" full length movie ever made. This is the one that started it for Disney.

[@TimotheeReacts]

Yah the first full length drawn animated movie. I have seen in the past, The Adventures of Prince Achmed german 1926 film, some people say that is the first

[@oliverbrownlow5615]

You're right, Timothee, but can we all agree that *Snow White* was the first full-length, full-color cartoon feature with synchronized sound?

[@JHSIUNG98]

If you think Pinocchio is too dark and disturbing, I recommend watching Disney classics like Bambi, 101 dalmatians, the jungle book or Winnie the Pooh. Also React to bare necessities and gin and juice mash up song

[@rebeccamichael626]

22:43 - Just for that coment, you need to watch Home on the Range.

[@wolf2912]

When this movie was in production they called it Walt folly but when it came out it changed the world and Disney Ps my grandma was born the same year snow white was released

[@BogdanDragomirović]

when I was little and watched Snow White, I was afraid of the evil queen😅

[@kcirtapelyk6060]

I just love how Snow White, a 14 year old girl breaks into a house occupied by 7 grown men and in the nicest way possible, takes charge of the house and starts running their lives as if she owns the place and them😂

[@oliverbrownlow5615]

She is a princess, after all.

[@karenhall4645]

Disney gambled everything on this one movie. If it wasn't a success he would have been bankrupt. I love this movie. Snow White will always be my favorite Disney princess.

[@beckystar3327]

I have a lot of allergies, from dust, so when I move stuff around it kicks up dust and I end up sneezing and coughing a bunch. But I also have seasonal allergies, so when the weather changes that's when allergies flare up for a week at least. It's never fun

[@monsterhighandbarbiefan]

its apple and ravens moms story

[@JUMPYCOOL]

Jesus this movie is so old

[@Angelicwings1]

In the context of all history? No it’s not
