Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (the 1962 Finnish edition)


Walt Disney: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (US 1937). There had been Finnish-spoken True-Life Adventures before, but the 1962 re-release edition of Snow White was the first Walt Disney film synchronized into Finnish.

Lumikki ja seitsemän kääpiötä / Snövit och de sju dvärgarna. US 1937. Viewed in Kino-Palatsi, Tampere, 28 Jan 1963. The first Walt Disney feature film dubbed into Finnish, with Eeva-Kaarina Volanen as Snow White. The first film I saw.
