Snow White inspired a remarkable new direction in the evolution of film, and is surprisingly well done considering that it's the first feature length animated film. Although, it is a little boring. I'm not to crazy about musical numbers in movies, and Snow White is full of them. Also, Snow White offers little in the direction of an original plot, and none of the characters have any depth. The evil, jealous queen is evil and jealous; the beautiful, graceful Snow White is beautiful and graceful; and the handsome, cunning prince is handsome and cunning.
Although, I don't think that my criticisms above *really* matter, because Snow White is almost just a proof of concept film which makes it an extraordinary film, worth its weight in gold, in that regard. It's a film well worth watching, because it signifies a vital development of what we understand to be film today.
