Revealing mistake: The film contains a few animation glitches which usually only last a frame or two. These could have been fixed during the film's digital restoration, but were left in, presumably because the restorers didn't want to alter a single detail of the original animation. A prime example occurs when Snow White is leading the animals to the Dwarfs' cottage. As she approaches the door, a fawn steps in front of her, and its head completely disappears for one frame.

Trivia: In the Swedish dub (and possibly others too) the text appearing on screen is narrated by the Prince.
Question: Why does the queen, when she's an old hag, walk all the way to the dwarves' cottage? Why doesn't she have her servants transport her there?
