Premiered on December 21, 1937, at the Carthay Circle Theater in Hollywood, US Theatrical Reissues: April 3, 1944; February 13, 1952; February 7, 1958; June 11, 1967; December 20, 1975; July 15, 1983; July 17, 1987; and July 2, 1993. US Home Media Release Dates: October 28, 1994 (VHS/LD); October 9, 2001 (DVD); November 27, 2001 (VHS); October 6, 2009 (BR); November 24, 2009 (DVD); February 2, 2016 (BR); February 28, 2017 (DVD) Trivia: • Frames: 119,520 • It was the first animated feature film. The film cost $1.4 million, • More than 750 artists worked on the film, which took three years to produce. • Walt had gotten the idea for the film when he was a newsboy in Kansas City, and he saw a major presentation of a silent film version of the story starring Marguerite Clark. The screening was held at the city’s Convention Hall in February 1917, and the film was projected onto a four-sided screen using four separate projectors. The movie made a tremendous impression on the 15-year-old viewer because he was sitting where he could see two sides of the screen at once, and they were not quite in sync. • The film received a special Academy Award in 1939 consisting of one full-size Oscar and seven dwarf Oscars, presented to Walt Disney by Shirley Temple. The Academy recognized Snow White “as a significant screen innovation which has charmed millions and pioneered a great new entertainment field for the motion picture cartoon.” • For a while after its release, the film became the highest-grossing motion picture of all time, until finally surpassed by Gone With the Wind a couple of years later. This statistic is all the more surprising when one realizes that children were paying a dime to get into the theaters in 1937, and the film, of course, had great appeal to that age group. The original worldwide gross was $8.5 million, a figure that would translate into several hundreds of millions in today’s dollars. • In England, the film was deemed too scary for children, and those under 16 had to be accompanied by a parent. • A stage version of the movie played at Radio City Music Hall in New York in 1979. • For its 1993 reissue the film was completely restored, being the first ever to be completely digitized by computer, cleaned up, and then printed back to film.

Bergen tells the story of “Mickey and the Beanstalk”, in which Mickey and his friends, Donald and Goofy, climb a beanstalk to rescue the lovely singing harp from a giant named Willie to restore happiness to their Happy Valley.
