White as Snow (2019)
5/10
Sorry, but can't the French find ANY handsome men?

While watching this, I kept thinking "wow, are they all ugly, etc.", and figured they must be setting up a handsome Prince Charming character. Nope.

So I guess the point she was liberated, and didn't need a prince charming. When you're telling a tale of a liberated woman making conquest, and she's very attractive, you'd think that here conquest would be more than the homely, the awkward, the old.

If you're trying to make it look like she's appealing to ALL men, then you need a better group. Add if they really wanted to update it, why are all the "dwarves" men anyway?

Even with better casting of the "dwarves", this wouldn't have been a great movie. However, there was enough, with this lead actress and a bit better script, to make this an entertaining spin of the classic (for adults only).

The one standout is the still attractive Isabelle Huppert. Her turn as the evil Stepmother (evil Queen) is the highlight of the film.
