Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Two-Disc Blu-ray/DVD Combo + BD Live w/ Blu-ray packaging) [Blu-ray] Review

The classic Snow White looks better than ever on this BluRay DVD. It's obvious that Disney spent a lot of time and money turning this classic into a high-def film. But they did not re-do any artwork. It has the look and feel of the original, just sharper than I've ever seen it.

This package is an excellent value as it comes with 3 DVDs: Two BluRay (one with the video and the other with extras) and one standard DVD. I really appreciate it when they add the standard DVD so I'm not tied to a high-def player. I can throw the original in an old DVD player or a computer, and even the standard DVD looks better than ever.

Disney would have been justified (and probably would have sold plenty) at a standard BluRay DVD price, but as of the time of this posting, pricing was much lower than most new release BluRay discs, plus they threw in the bonus disc and the standard DVD.

If this is any indication of how Disney will roll out all of their classic cartoons into High Def, I'm excited.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Two-Disc Blu-ray/DVD Combo + BD Live w/ Blu-ray packaging) [Blu-ray] Specifications

One of the brightest nuggets from Disney's golden age, this 1937 film is almost dizzying in its meticulous construction of an enchanted world, with scores of major and minor characters (including fauna and fowl), each with a distinct identity. When you watch Snow White's intricate, graceful movements of fingers, arms, and head all in one shot, it is not the technical brilliance of Disney's artists that leaps out at you, but the very spirit of her engaging, girl-woman character. When the wicked queen's poisoned apple turns from killer green to rose red, the effect of knowing something so beautiful can be so terrible is absolutely elemental, so pure it forces one to surrender to the horror of it. Based on the Grimm fairy tale, Snow White is probably the best family film ever to deal, in mythic terms, with the psychological foundation for growing up. It's a crowning achievement and should not be missed. --Tom Keogh
