This is a wonderful short humorous cartoon, predating the Disney feature inspired by the same folk-tale.
The Wicked Witch/Queen is jealous of Betty Boop's beauty, and orders Boop's execution. Guards Bimbo and Koko are too kind hearted to carry it out. As in "Minnie The Moocher", the scene shifts to a spooky cave where we are serenaded by the voice of Cab Calloway.
The music and action mesh beautifully, keeping the momentum strong throughout. Watch carefully for a plethora of visual jokes to the sides and behind the action.
Unfortunately, most copies of this cartoon on video were taken from 1950s television prints, which cut off part of the frame.
This is perhaps as close to perfection as the Fleischer Studios achieved. A gem.
