For Your Princess
It's so wonderful to live in a time when Disney's strange behavior of taking their classics off the market can be circumvented by great Internet marketers like Amazon. I was able to buy this 5 Star Disney Princess classic recently for my young princess through one of Amazon's third-party sellers. And without that opportunity, my little princess may have outgrown Snow White by the time Disney released it again.
Let me just say that my little one was absolutely captivated by Snow White, and to think that she would be deprived by Disney itself from seeing it at her perfect age is criminal.
The story is familiar enough to any parent, so I won't go on about that other than to say that of all the Disney Princess classics, Snow White and Sleeping Beauty have some scenes that might scare a young princess under the age of 5.
But you should take advantage of purchasing Snow White or any of the other "off-the-market" Disney princess classics like Beauty and the Beast now via one of this site's resellers if you have a little princess of your own that might not appreciate it as much when Disney decides that it's time.
And indeed, you will enjoy Snow White or any of the other Princess classics as thoroughly as your young one.
Side Note on Resellers: Beware of exorbitant reseller prices; renting may be a better option if available. Also beware of REGION 2 resales; Region 2 DVDs will not play in most US DVD players. Look for Region 1 US Amazon resellers.
The One That Started It All And Still The Fairest In The Land.
Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs 2-Disc Disney DVD is a spectacular creation and an excellent use for the DVD format. I am a 15-year old boy and this movie still amazzes me every time I watch it. It is a loving fairy tale and this dvd makes it even better. On the first disc you have the movie digitally restored, not the best, but read more about this below. There is "Still The Fairest Of Them All: The Making Of Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs." There's an Animated Short: Goddess Of Spring, and much more. On the second disc you will see: abandoned concepts, restoration, the history of Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs, many galleries, filled with thousands of photos, deleted scenes, "Disney Through The Decades"-a timeline of Disney, posters, trailers, vintage audio, production photos, and many, many more.
Now ther is one inconvenience: the restoration. We all agree Snow White looks better than ever, but there were some errors I noticed. For one thing the sound restoration. If you look at the scene where snow white is at the cottage, she says, "I know. We'll clean the house and surprise them" Then there is a little static, then she says, "Then maybe they'll let me stay." Then ther's the picture quality. The picture looks better than ever, but still there many errors that I saw, but I'll only point out a few of them. There's this one scene when the dwarfs are lookin at Snow White when she's sinnging "Some Day My Prince Will Come." I you look at the bottom left corner of the screen there is a green spot that is on the screen. There is also this one scene when the witch is getting into her boat. When she does, it shakes and white puffiness comes onto the stone walls. There is also dirt scattered throughout the film. Some are noticeable some you have to look at for a feww seconds to see them. I think this dvd is the best, but I think they should re-release it with it re-restored. But I still love the dvd, and everything in it too. The best ever.
Snow White's dream comes true!
Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs is simply enchanting. We got the DVD a few months back, but just saw it with a group of children that were visiting and chose this to be the entertainment of the night. The quality is superb, the sound magnificent. Soon we found ourselves immersed in the story of a queen who is vain and wicked, trying hard to forever be the fairest in the land.
Snow White grows to be a very beautiful princess and soon, the enchanted mirror tells the Queen that she is no longer the most beautiful, the title now goes to Snow White.
Jealousy and envy drive the queen to attempt to eliminate the fair princess. Snow White meets the seven dwarfs, who live in the forest, and we find ourselves singing right along with them... "Heigh-ho, Heigh-ho, It's home from work we go, Heigh-ho, Heigh-ho, Heigh-ho."
The creatures of the forest are marvelous as they help Snow White with daily chores. Some of the most endearing moments in movie history. In the end, love saves the day... and Snow White has her dream come true. Unforgettable song: "some day my prince will come, some day we'll meet again, and away to his castle we'll go, to be happy forever I know."
"Some day when spring is here, we'll find our love anew, and the birds will sing, and wedding bells will ring, some day when my dreams come true!"
