Description

The Snowman: Raymond Briggs’ The Snowman is one of the most beautiful and charming films ever made. Adapted from Raymond Briggs’ best-selling book and nominated for an Oscar in 1982, it is the story of a boy whose snowman comes to life at midnight, and the two embark on a series of magical adventures. The Snowman and The Snowdog: The Snowman and The Snowdog beautifully captures the magic and excitement of the original film as well as being a heart-warming story about love, loss and friendship. When a young boy, Billy, moves house, he discovers a secret box hidden under the floorboards – a snowman-making kit!

  • Brutal crop to achieve widescreen

    The quality is good, but it has been carelessly chopped from the original 4:3 aspect ratio. Disappointing as Channel 4 have it in the original 4:3 (but with ads and worse quality)

  • Where is the David Bowie Intro

    By We are the Rivetts
    One of the best things about the Snowman was David Bowie recalling the story in his attic; this segment or the orginal Raymond Briggs 1982 intro is not in version. The animation is still surperb but in the same way as Rupert and the Frog Chorus isn't Rupert and the Frog Chorus without Paul McCartney reminiscing in his attic, the film loses an element of its original charm.
