Live Blog on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs: 


  • Excuse me but has she just ingested helium? Literally gasped when I heard her voice and then thought God I have to watch 80 more minutes of that voice?!? Good thing she falls asleep at some point :)
  • Love how she sings a whole song about wishing to find the man she loves, and when a man appears seconds after she legit runs away.
  • Interesting to compare Snow white's eyes to the Queen's, white Snow White's being so round and small, while the Queen's eyes are so wide and her iris is literally a dot.
  • Love how's she's having conversations with mute animals--at least in Cinderella they make the animals more interesting and assign them voices/personalities! It's interesting to wonder who had the idea to animate/personify the animals in a film and not just the people.
  • Lol she just ran through the woods, trees, river, git hit by flying animals, and collapses on dirt in the forest, yet she wakes up with her clothes, hair, and makeup still in tact. Typical.
  • Of course she needs to be so concerned with cleaning dishes and sweeping floors when she walks into dwarves' house--complete reinforcement of cult of domesticity. But don't know why I'm surprised, that's the 30s for ya!
  • Dwarves sing "digging is what we like to do" and are portrayed as happy finding tons of jewels in mines, yet history tells us the converse of this: miners had terrible working conditions/wages and we know that finding bucket loads of diamonds and jewels on daily basis was not the case...
  • Urghhh just have to interject and say WHY MUST SNOW WHITE BE SO JOLLY ALL THE DAMN TIME
  • Snow White literally is there to instruct a lesson on morals
  • Haven't seen this movie in years and never made the connect that Dopey is called Dopey because he is mute and is portrayed as dumb because of it, not cool.
  • Okay, so why must Snow White be so stupid, don't we know not to accept things from strangers (especially crazy looking old women in black) ! I mean c'mon, even the birds know something's going on!
Movie's over. Okay that was rough not gonna lie, will admit I fell asleep a couple of times, definitely remember why I haven't seen that one in years :)
