    Born from a drop of blood in a flutter of apple blossoms, and framed in ebony, a young girl named Snow White becomes the blessing of a loving peasant couple, John and Josephine. But with her birth comes a curse and the end of her mother's life. Left alone with an infant daughter,...( read more) John braves a brutal winter in search of food for his starving angel. Salvation comes unexpectedly when the father's tears melt the frozen tomb of a bewitched creature, the Green-Eyed One. In thanks, the insinuating beast grants John three wishes: nourishment for Snow White, a kingdom in which to raise his family and a queen by his side. But John's cause for celebration is short-lived. For the Green-Eyed One has devious plans for the well-being of his own family. Owing his loathsome spellcasting daughter, Elspeth, a long-awaited wish, he encourages her desires for appointment to the throne. A kingdom to rule is hers for the waiting, the new King John is hers for the belittling and a luscious little stepdaughter named Snow White, is hers to toy with and destroy at will. The castle awaits. A looking glass is calling. And a fairy tale like no other begins...

    I've always loved fairy tales. Snow White created by The Grimm Brothers, is definitely one of my favourites.
    The movie was decent and Kristin Kreuk was perfect for the role! Like if she was made for it and Smallville. H
    Nevertheless i enjoyed it. And it is a great movie to see...( read more) together with family or kids.
    It gets 8 out of 10 :)

    Very nice. The witch made me want to gouge her eyes out. Haha. And Kristin's so white. O_O

    Slightly odd interpretation of Snow White. Very odd, really. But it was interesting enough. Somebody bought me the VHS.

    sounds interesting, and it would cool to see the fairy tale come to life with this non animated version.
  • December 20, 2008
    This wasn't too bad but it wasn't exactly great either. The actong was a little over the top for me and the storyline dull.
  • December 8, 2008
    An extremely bizarre, yet still very imaginative and entertaining adaptation of the classic tale. The casting is a nice bonus as well.

    A young girl named Snow White (Kristin Kreuk) grows in grace and beauty. Prince Alfred (Tyrone Leitso) sees Snow White and falls in love & he declares his love for her. Prince Alfred finds Snow White & wakes her up with a kiss and they lived happily ever after.

    I have this movie at home but I have not watched it in quite a while. Is this the one with all the weird little dwarfs in it?
