Summary
As is commonly known, "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" was a film that Walt Disney made over the objections of nearly everyone around him. No one thought that the movie-going public would accept a feature-length cartoon, and Walt's brother Roy, who was also his business partner, was aghast when Walt told him he could do the film for $250,000 –ten times the cost of the average short the studio was used to producing. When the budget ballooned to over $1.5 million – Walt actually mortgaged his house to keep production going – the film earned the sobriquet "Walt's Folly," and naysayers predicted that the ambitious project would bankrupt the still young studio. Walt's vision proved them all wrong, of course, and "Snow White" went on to become the top-grossing film of 1938, and, for a while, the top-grossing film of all time, until it was supplanted by "Gone with the Wind" in 1939. It has since become one of the most beloved films of all time, thrilling audiences young and old for generations.
