Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was among the many VHS tapes of Disney movies I grew up watching repeatedly, which contributed to Disney movies becoming a special interest of mine for as long as I could remember. Although that movie never spoke personally to me the same way as other Disney classics like Aladdin, The Lion King, or Toy Story, I still felt quite angry like millions of others about the mere existence of the recent Snow White live action remake. In fact, on the day it came out, I protested the movie by instead rewatching the original movie on Disney+. Before then, my feelings for the first ever animated feature film were more negative than positive because of its reputation for its shallow nonexistent story and giving children bad romantic expectations. Yet by watching it again this time under the lens of appreciating its strong qualities, I came to love how the film pioneered these timeless techniques in generating art.

Good movies are important to distinguish from bad ones, as I posted before on this blog, yet when it comes to making bank, product quality isn’t enough. A filmmaker also must be in touch with the industry’s history. Any good producer knows a movie doesn’t have to be “good” to be a box office hit. Wicked, for instance, has problems with its casting, singing, and visual effects, but everything came together when meeting the desires of its target audience. Whereas other remarkable movies like Poor Things don’t get terribly prominent marketing campaigns, since producers are too afraid to give such niche films a chance.  By Trevor Pacelli
