Along with Bambi, this film is the foundation of the entire Disney empire and for good reason. This is an intricate film that stands as one of the great pieces of animation. The script captures the perfect tone and paces the story marvelously. Like Sleeping Beauty, Snow White’s villain the Queen/Witch is a notable nemesis. Her motivation is easy to understand keeping her cruel plotting in clear context. When she arrives at Snow White’s doorstep with the poisoned apple, there is actual tension, which is remarkable for a decades old children’s movie.

If you know a kid who hasn’t seen this movie, you know a kid who isn’t being raised right. This is one of maybe three family movies I consider a must-see.
