Kinda off-topic here, but as someone who co-authored a thesis on the subject, snow white was indeed ahead of it's time in terms of fluid animations and mood making, but it still featured the passive damsel-in-distress archetype which put it way behind in terms of sociological evolution. Compare it to female counterparts in, say, Hayao Miyazaki cartoons where women are proactive and actually have character development.
