Synopsis
The first full-length animated picture in the history of cinema, took the Disney Studios three years to make and costed one and a half milion dollars. On its debut in December 1937 the film confounded the pessimistic forecasts by proving an instant success with the public and critics – Snow White’s graceful charm and the dwarfs’ characterisation won over the audience.
