The New Adventures of Snow White
1969 film directed by Rolf Thiele
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The New Adventures of Snow White (German: Grimms Märchen von lüsternen Pärchen, lit. 'Grimm's Fairy Tales of Lustful Couples') is a 1969 West German sex comedy film directed by Rolf Thiele and starring Marie Liljedahl, Eva Rueber-Staier, and Ingrid van Bergen. The film puts an erotic spin on three classic fairy tales Snow White, Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty. It exemplified the downturn in the career of Thiele who earlier in the decade had still been a mainstream director, but increasingly found himself making lower-budget sex comedies.[1]

Plot
The film is led by two traveller who are on a journey. They also meet Snow White, who climbs naked on a rock, pursued by the evil red-haired queen, who is also often naked.
The next stop is Sleeping Beauty's enchanted castle. This sleeping girl can only be awakened temporarily from her death-like slumber by a kiss, and only finally by sex. But because the travellers both turn out to be unable to have sex with her, the poor girl continues to wander through the fairytale forest, begging people and animals alike to help her in this regard or to have sex with her.
The third major story is that of Cinderella and her sisters. In addition to the main plot, the film is embellished with numerous elements of the fairy tale, such as witches, miraculous flowers and royal children transformed into animals.
