1937: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (P: Walt Disney)

Walt Disneys erster Animations-Spielfilm Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs ist sein bis heute größter Kassenerfolg (inflationsbereinigt).

Bei seiner Wiederaufführung in den 50er Jahren wird der Film zum Erstaunen von Spielbergs Eltern den jungen Steven in Angst und Schrecken versetzen. Spielberg erinnert sich:

„Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs has always been my favorite Disney movie. I saw it in a movie theater during its ninth revival, when I was only probably 7 or 8 years old. And it stuck with me. And it’s with me today, remembering it as vividly now and being so frightened and terrified as I was when I was a little kid, and at the same time so filled with the feeling of satisfaction at that amazing ending and pride in Snow White.“
