Let the podcast commence! Mom and Isaac kick off their discussion of Disney’s Golden Era with the first film in the Disney Animated Canon: the groundbreaking, shockingly dark Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Listen as we discuss the film’s German Expressionist influences, some of the dwarfs that didn’t make the cut, whether or not J.R.R. Tolkien would have approved of this tomfoolery, and of course, what the movie means to us.
Me, Mom & The Mouse is a podcast about the joy of watching cartoons with your family. If you like this first episode, please subscribe and join us each Friday as we watch every film in the Disney Animated Canon and talk about how it was made, what it means, and why we love it (or don’t.)
