Walt Disney: "The thought just struck me on the buildup of the music where she says, "Now turn red, etc." Where it starts you might go into innocent, sweet music while she is saying something about how innocent it looks. The scene of the Witch preparing the poisoned apple was discussed in a story conference in 1936: The Prince hears of Snow White's current state and comes to the clearing where her coffin is placed, reviving her with a kiss and reversing the effects of the poison. Though she appears to be dead, the dwarfs can't bear to bury Snow White, instead forging her a coffin made of glass and gold. ![]() The Witch's supposed victory is short-lived when she is discovered by the seven dwarfs, who, led by Grumpy, pursue her until she is cornered on the edge of a cliff, where she apparently falls to her doom, with her body believed to have been eaten by the vultures. After some moaning, Snow White's body slumps to the floor as she falls into a coma induced by the Sleeping Death. The Witch tells Snow White that the apple will grant wishes, and, knowing of Snow White's romance with the Prince, persuades her to wish for a happy reunion before taking a bite. ![]() Snow White does not recognize any danger in the old woman and lets her into the house to offer her a drink of water, while the animals rush to find the Dwarfs. Catching the girl by surprise as she is preparing food, the Witch offers her the apple, but is attacked by the animals of the forest (who sense danger when they notice the two vultures). She reaches the cottage and, according to plan, finds that the Dwarfs have left and Snow White is alone. As she makes her way to the dwarfs' cottage, two sinister and dangerous vultures see her and, sensing that her death is imminent, quietly pursue her. She puts the apple in a basket, and walks down through the dungeon below, emerging from the castle's catacombs in a raft. Confident that Snow White will be buried alive, making her unable to receive a kiss, the Witch laughs to herself. She soon discovers that the only cure is love's first kiss. She suddenly remembers that there may be an antidote to the Sleeping Death and searches through the spell book, believing that "nothing must be overlooked". ![]() The Witch cruelly offers the apple to the Raven, who backs away, terrified, causing the Witch to cackle maliciously. This image fades as the apple turns red, to tempt Snow White. The Sleeping Death seeps into the apple, and the Witch raises the apple from the cauldron to reveal that the poison dripping from the apple has formed an image of a skull. She brews the potion and dips an ordinary apple into the brew as the Raven watches silently. Looking through her spell book, she comes to the recipe for the Sleeping Death, and, reading of the Poisoned Apple's effects, decides that it's the perfect way to get rid of the princess. While on the way to the Prince’s castle, the coffin falls and the piece of poison apple falls out of Snow White’s throat, reviving her.Īfter turning into a old begged woman via witchcraft, the wicked Queen Grimhilde declares that Snow White should suffer "a special sort of death". A prince finds her in the glass coffin and wishes to take her home with her as he has fallen in love with her. When the dwarves return home, they find Snow White and put her in a glass coffin as she doesn’t look dead enough to be buried. When the Queen returns home, her magic mirror tells her that she is the fairest of them all, much to her delight. The Queen eats the white half and to prove it is safe to eat and then gives Snow White the poisoned red half. She offers the apple to Snow White who is initially hesitant to eat it. ![]() She then goes to the Dwatrve’s cottage while they are at work and Snow White is home alone. After two failed attempts at killing Snow White, the Evil Queen makes a two toned apple with the red half being poisoned and the white half not being poisoned with witchcraft and then disguises herself as a farmer’s wife.
