DVD: Blancanieves - Reviews - Films - The Independent Forget last year's two live-action film versions of Snow White. Pablo Berger's wittily gothic Spanish version turns the fairy tale into a black-and-white silent melodrama set in 1920s Seville. Snow White is a bullfighter's daughter, the dwarves are travelling toreadors, and the wicked stepmother is a gold-digging dominatrix. It would be perfect in a double bill with The Artist, but Blancanieves deserves to be a cult hit in its own right.
