GAUMONT QUEUE - 1973


The film causing all the commotion at the Gaumont was "Snow White & The Seven Dwarfs". These pictures were taken on the 5th April 1973, so the movie would have been on it's umpteenth re-release by then.
I too saw this classic animation at the Gaumont, but that was in the mid 60's. For some reason, I always remember Dopey's drum solo sequence!
I also have a hazy memory of singing a rude version of "Hi Ho Hi Ho" in the school playground, but can't recall how it went now. Probably just as well!
If you want to have a closer look at the faces in the crowd to see ye ken anybody, just click onto the images to enlarge.

The Dopey drum solo was probably created by Dundonian Jimmy McDonald who was also the voice of Mickey Mouse for many years.
