None of the first line Disney classics, including "Snow White,"
"Sleeping Beauty," "Fantasia," and a number of others, have been
released for home video or cable showing in any form.  These films
cycle back to movie theatres at regular intervals and bring in
*very* substantial money at each cycle as new audiences are exposed
to the material.  There is considerable pressure on Buena Vista
(Disney) to release the classics for home video, but they have so far
resisted all such efforts.
