Review of Snow-White

Snow-White (1933)
9/10
A psychodelic trip of life and death
8 October 2021
Fantastic and dark humored version of Snow White tale by Fleischer Studio, animated by Roland Crandall. Here, Snow White, who is Betty Boop, goes to the castle to see her stepmother, the evil Queen. Furious after listening her magic mirror telling her Betty Snow White Boop is "the fairest in the land", the Queen orders not a hunter to kill her, but her guards Koko the clown and Bimbo. They spare her life, but afterwards there is a very psychodelic trip of life and death in the frozen river and deep in the dwarfs' mystery cave, probably the Hell, involving all characters, magic metamorphosis, dance and Saint James Infirmary Blues in the voice of Cab Calloway. It is a masterwork among nonsense cartoons.
