Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937)

As part of the celebration commemorating the 100thanniversary of Walt Disney Studios, the Capitol will screen the legendary first feature film from the studio, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, in a digital restoration directly from Disney Studios in Los Angeles. The brilliantly animated film was considered something of a motion picture miracle at the time of its initial release, and its reputation has only grown in the years since, despite (or perhaps because of) numerous re-makes and imitations.
David Hand was the supervising director of the massive production, and voices include those of Adriana Caselotti, Harry Stockwell, Lucille LaVerne, Scotty Mattraw, (Syracuse native) Roy Atwell, Pinto Colvig, Otis Harlan, Billy Gilbert, and Moroni Olsen. The original songs for the movie (“Whistle While You Work,” “Heigh Ho,” “Someday My Prince Will Come,” et. al.) were by Frank Churchill, Leigh Harline, and Paul Smith. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is suitable for all audiences.

“Walt Disney’s groundbreaking animated feature film—the first of its kind—is still in a class by itself, a warm and joyful rendition of the classic fairy tale, enhanced by the vivid personalities of the seven dwarfs. Only a real-life Grumpy could fail to love it.” –Leonard Maltin’s Movie and Video Guide.
