An early silent film adaptation of a successful play based on the fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm. The story here draws also from another European folktale with an odious stepmother as found in Cinderella.
Two Australians in the leads: Dorothy Cumming and May Robson.
This romantic fantasy was seen by a 14 year old Walt Disney 109 years ago who was struck by its enchantment to such an extent that he chose the tale 21 years later as the theme of his hugely successful animated feature.
