Ingen anden tegnet langfilm har fængslet så mange generationer og mennesker, som Disneys Snehvide og de syv små dværge. Måske har det noget at gøre med det gribende eventyr om uskyldighed, misundelse, grådighed og kampen mellem det gode og det onde. Måske har det noget at gøre med at Walt Disney satsede alt hvad han ejede, for at virkeliggøre sin drøm om verdens første tegnede langfilm. Baseret på brødrene Grimms eventyr Kinder- und Hausmärchen (1812-15). Første tegnede langfilm nogensinde og den første egentlige spillefilm helt i farver. Walt Disney vandt en speciel Oscar for Snehvide, som bestod af én stor statuette og syv små.
