Picture this. You're watching Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Dwarves? Which is right? Skip that for now. You're watching the movie.
Now, according to the plot, the evil queen, transformed into a hag of a witch with warts, out of nowhere arrives at Snowy's door and gives her an apple. Snowy is not the brightest bulb on the marquee and takes the apple and, at the behest of the witch, takes a bite out of it.
Immediately she falls down, dead.
The little guys return home and find her there and since Doc isn't really a doctor, they load her body up and somehow have this glass covered coffin made up for her in the woods nearby. They are standing around crying, yes, even Grumpy, and along comes the prince (it is Someday, I guess) and when he sees Snowy, all beautiful and dead in the glass coffin, he wants to kiss her dead lips. Somehow the lid comes off the coffin, he kisses her and, well, he must have tongued her because the bit of poison apple is dislodged and whoopee, she is not dead but alive!
She sees her prince, he is already very hot for her (after all, he kissed her dead lips just seconds ago, so he MUST love her) and he picks her up and carts her away on his white horse.
The queen is unable to transform back into herself and flees to the top of a mountain where she is either struck by lightning or hit by a boulder and dies. Nobody gives a crap about her...and since Snow White's dad died a long time ago, nobody really gives a rat's ass about what happens to her. After, all, she's no longer a great beauty but as ugly on the outside as she was on the inside.
I was thinking about the kiss thing, though. If I were mostly dead with a piece of poison apple somewhere in my mouth, and some guy I don't really know sticks his tongue in there and the poison apple moves and...now, what am I gonna do? I'm alive again, having had a good hour's sleep or so before being put in a hastily made coffin. I wake up, feel this gob of half masticated apple in my mouth and I have to get rid of it. So, I do a hack, patooie to get rid of it.
Apparently, no one in the Disney Studio back then was capable of thinking the way I do.
