Ep. 32: Snow White and the Huntsman (2012)

Of Slippers and Spindles - Fairy Tale Retellings and Adaptations in Books, Film, and Theatre

"Lips red as blood, hair black as night, bring me your heart, my dear, dear Snow White."
This week, Drew and Cassie are joined by Maggie and V from the I Met You On LJ podcast to talk about the 2012 film Snow White and the Huntsman starring Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron, and Chris Hemsworth! We discuss the film's strengths and weaknesses, world-building, bird imagery, Jupiter Ascending, the miscasting of the dwarfs, Countess Erzsébet Báthory, women in power through history, map hopping, The Matrix, a breakdown of Snow White's big speech, the twist on the kiss that awakens Snow White (and whether it actually does), and much more!
