The best in the live-action genre to date remain Bill Condons blockbusterBeauty and the Beastand Kenneth Branaghs splendidCinderella.
That duo was responsible for both the long-running BroadwayWickedandits recent magnificent film version (at leastPart One).
I dont expectSnow Whiteto rivalWickedat the global box office, but it is a valiant attempt.
Rachel Zegler and friends in ‘Snow White’Disney
Theres also choreographer Mandy Moore, who is responsible for the dazzling dance numbers.
The evil stepmother and Queen is played to the hilt byGal Gadot.
It does so with a swell ballad sung by both, A Hand Meets a Hand.
Zegler is ideal in the lead role.
Zegler is terrific here and the casting works, as does Gadots narcissistic Queen.
