On October 6th Disney is releasing Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs Diamond Edition Blu-ray Combo Pack with DVD copy and Book Collector's Set and CHUD (who has their own seven dwarfs) has some copies to give away.
Summary The time-honored story of a beautiful princess whose blossoming beauty disturbs her stepmother the Queen. Each day the Queen asks a mysterious magic mirror the quintessential question: “mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all.” As long as the mirror answers the Queen’s name, all is well. However, when one day the mirror replies with Snow White’s name, the evil Queen begins her quest to kill the young girl, so she may once again be “the fairest of them all.” Snow White’s escape from the evil Queen’s plan leads her deep into the forest and to a small cottage where she meets, in one of the most famous scenes in motion picture history, the Seven Dwarfs. Once “off to work” they go, the wicked Queen persuades Snow White to take a bite of a poisonous apple that places a powerful sleeping curse on the young beauty. Heartbroken, the dwarfs make a glass coffin for their friend, because she is too beautiful to bury. Only when a handsome Prince - who had previously fallen in love with Snow White - finds her and kisses her, does she awaken, “to live happily ever after.”
Released in 1937 Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs has not been available since 2001 and Disney has not held back on the special features:
