This paper aims at interrogating how intertextuality has been used to enhance continuity in adaptations while correcting injustices committed in the narratives of the parent or source texts. It is the argument of this paper that film adaptations offer new perspectives on the literary and film texts that combine to form them even as they maintain a semblance of similarity in the narratives. The first part of this paper will review literature associated with intertextuality and adaptation. The subsequent parts will discuss the place of intertextuality as regards continuity and correction in the selected adaptation and source texts. The last section will entail the conclusion deduced from the interrogation of the texts and topic at hand. The paper will use the adaptation theory while adapting an intertextual approach. The adaptation under scrutiny will be the animated film The Seventh Dwarf released in 2014 and directed by Herald Siepermann and Boris Aljinovic. The literary antecedents to be analyzed are The little Snow White (1812) by Johann and Wilhelm Grimm and The Seventh Dwarf (1926) by Franz Hessel.
