Pablo Berger’s imaginative black-and-white ‘silent’ movie relocates the story of Snow White to 1920s Spain – complete with bullfighting dwarfs
Director: Pablo Berger
Overview
Like The Artist, Pablo Berger’s film is a modern black-and-white ‘silent’ movie, in this case relocating the story of Snow White – complete with a group of dwarfs – to the world of bullfighting in 1920s Spain. A gripping, even unsettling melodrama, it pays tribute to a range of movies (including classics by Browning and Buñuel) while delivering striking images and fantastic characters aplenty
