Notes

The song is included in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs Movie Songs.

The Prince was originally a much more prominent character, but the difficulty found in animating him convincingly forced the animators to reduce his part significantly.

Held the title of highest grossing film ever for exactly one year, after which it was knocked out of the top spot by Gone with the Wind (1939).

The film's initial budget of $250,000 was 10 times the average budget for one of the studio's Silly Symphonies shorts. As it transpired, the final budget was in excess of $1.4 million, a huge amount for any film at the time.

Walt Disney came up with the idea for the film when he was only 15, working as a newsboy in Kansas City. He saw a major presentation of a silent film version of Snow White (1916) 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 young viewer because he was sitting where he could see two sides of the screen at once, and they were not quite in sync.
