Fairy Tale Feeturettes Vol 1: Snow White

Hi guys. I'm introducing a new segment to the blog today called Fairy Tale Feeturettes. This series of articles inspired by the contributor JTurner (who sent in a ton of material from different Fairy Tale adaptations) will look at different fairy tale women. Tonight's featured character is Snow White. :-)  
(These are from Grimm's Fairy Tale Classics Episode 1x08. A Huge Thank You to JTurner for finding and recommending this)

Grimm's Fairy Tale Classics is a Japanese animated series that looks at different Folk and Fairy tales. It was released between 1987 and 1989 and ran for 47 episodes.  This Snow White episode that these caps are from was about an hour in length. I didn't watch the episode completely through but from what I've seen the show looks like a very sweet series that I think children would enjoy despite a little bit of a dated feel to it. (I think that voice acting has really come a long way in the past 20 years.) The animation of the episode still seemed like it is pretty good and I have admit that Snow White looks incredibly cute in anime form. ^_^

When it comes to Disney films, we've been fairly lucky in terms of barefoot scenes (see Disney posts). I like to joke with my friend Match that we have a secret agent at Disney who makes sure to give all their female characters a good foot scene for us. While the percentage of Disney girls who go barefoot are remarkably high, there are two Disney princesses that we haven't been able to post here yet. One is Belle from Beauty and the Beast while the other is Snow White. It's nice to be able to finally do a tribute to the latter albeit a different incarnation of the character.

Ok everyone that's all for now. As always more to come soon.

  1. From my general understanding this is the only time Snow White has been barefoot in an officially licensed Disney product. Belle had one small subtle one in a book as well.

    Nothing to make a post about but since we're on the subject of this I might as well give you what I have.

    1. Missing just a "w" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5k4CyUKplew

      And I have found "the crystal sphere" too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-AvRCRmkU7o with a cute barefoot princess. If you search for the Italian title of the serie you can find many episodes. And maybe you can look also for "simsala grimm".
