6/10
Far better than it sounds

I saw this movie in the theater when I was a kid. I think I paid a quarter to see it. In doing research for a project on Snow White, I watched it again a couple of times, and the movie is actually a pretty good version of the story. I like the added dimension of the Prince's back story, the Stooges, while not playing their usual characters, are integrated nicely into the story, and even though Carol Heiss can't act or sing, she is a lovely dancer and skater. Patrica Medina is superb as the witch and it's a pretty enjoyable film.

While you're at it, watch the Fairie Tale Theater version. Now having seen Elizabeth McGovern in Downton Abbey, she's a fledgling as Snow White, but nice in the role. Vanessa Redgrave is excellent as the queen, Vincent Price perfect as the man in the mirror. One of the elves is in the Bad Santa movies, and it's nice to see him in an earlier performance.
