An adaptation of the old fairy tale Schneewittchen und die sieben Zwerge from the collection by Jacob Ludwig Carl Grimm (1785-1863) and Wilhelm Carl Grimm (1786-1859). The classic tale of a kind-hearted princess stalked by a jealous stepmother is brought to life in this early episode of Faerie Tale Theatre. Elizabeth McGovern is Snow White, the princess whose stepmother, the queen, banishes her because she is jealous of the girl's beauty. She takes up residence with a septet of friendly dwarfs in the woods, but eventually falls victim to a poisoned apple delivered by the queen in disguise. Only a kiss from a prince (Rex Smith) will awaken her. Veteran actress Vanessa Redgrave portrays the insanely wicked queen, and Vincent Price lends his incomparable voice and screen presence to the film as the queen's omnipresent magic mirror.

The story of the rocky road that Walt Disney took to get his interpretation of "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" (1937) to the silver screen.

In Disneyland, the Wicked Queen has cast a spell over the seven dwarfs that makes them feel they're too old and decide to retire, so Dick Van Dyke tries to convince them to stay. The show includes many celebrities sharing their Snow White memories and features a new performance of the deleted song "You're Never Too Old to Be Young".

The beautiful daughter of a merchant sacrifices her freedom to save her father from the punishment of a cursed beast.

Faerie Tale Theatre's "Cinderella" more than lives up to the series' stellar legacy of creative fairytale adaptations. Featuring a cast which includes Jennifer Beals, Jean Stapleton and Matthew Broderick it shines with intelligence and romance. It even subtly improves on the Disney classic by giving the prince a proper name; that of Henry. Jennifer Beals does admirable work as the title heroine, humanizing(as much as she can)one of the archetypal figures in mythical storytelling. Matthew Broderick infuses Prince Henry with undeniable charm while still maintaining a palpable shyness which perceptively suits the character as he finds true love. Jean Stapleton's boisterous Fairy Godmother befits the character's role as an agent for dynamic change in the story.

Having spent her entire life behind the convent walls, old and dignified nun Mary decides to fulfill her childhood dream. The only obstacle on her way is her fragmentary, almost non-existent memory. Mary is afraid that her ultimate dream may turn out to be a sin instead.
