Lucie Dolène Autograph

Lucie Dolène played the voice of Snow White in the 1962 French redub of Disney's Blanche Neige et les Sept Nains. Last year, researcher Greg Philip had the good fortune to meet her.

Lucie was kind enough to autograph this 8x10 which shows an image of her today and also from the 1962 recording studio in Paris where she voiced the role.

In another photo, Lucie is seen onstage with the Snow White characters, probably at the Euro Disney Resort. The image comes from a TV and video magazine which dates from 1994, the year that the movie was first issued to home video on VHS and LaserDisc.

1962 Blanch Neige 45 rpm record (Lucie Dolène)

1962 - Actress/singer Lucie Dolène was the voice of Snow White in the 1962 French re-dub of the Disney film. It's her version that was used in the 1994 VHS and LaserDisc home video release in France. The 45rpm below, however, does not contain any tracks from the official soundtrack. Instead, we have new recordings made by Lucie at that time, accompanied by "Caravelli and His Magic Violins". The cover art is a reproduction of the poster from the 1962 theatrical release. President record label. No. PRC. 316.

It's interesting to note that the Lucie Dolène 1962 version of the Snow White soundtrack is no longer available due to legal issues between her and Disney. As a result, Disney re-dubbed the film in 2001 using the talents of Valérie Siclay (speaking voice) and Rachel Pignot (singing voice). It is the official soundtrack found on French DVDs and Blu-rays today.
