By Sam Spiller| Daily Maverick Verified WHAT WE'RE WATCHING With Snow White, starring Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot, the Disney live-action remake machine has just attempted a flesh-and-blood take on the animated film that started it all. And it actually kinda works. It’s difficult to encapsulate how much the film industry, and indeed the entire world, owes to Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
By Sam Spiller| Pfangirl.com@ It’s difficult to encapsulate how much the film industry, and indeed the entire world, owes to Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Walt Disney’s 1937 release was a true landmark that not only fired the starting gun for theatrical animation, but left a mark on Hollywood that persists to this day. And that was just the background story of the movie’s making and release. The actual animated film Snow White tells a tale that is old as time, and set the archetype for on-screen fairy tales.
By Sam Spiller| Daily Maverick Verified WHAT WE’RE WATCHING Like tea time buns and hot cocoa, Paddington in Peru is to be savoured. Propelled by high levels of charm and fun performances, if lacking a bit towards the end, the film cements the Paddington film franchise as family-friendly, feel-good entertainment of the most satisfying kind. It wouldn’t be that contentious to declare that Paddington Bear’s movies are the definition of “family viewing”.
