Sleeping Beauty

Trivia: The picture was criticized for the angularity of its characters, but the cartoonists defended by saying that they tried to copy the French medieval style of drawing.

Trivia: Look carefully at Merryweather's biscuit at the beginning of the movie. It's one of the many Mickey Mouse shapes that appear throughout the film.

Trivia: One of the three good fairies in this movie is Flora, which was also the first name of Walt Disney's mother.

Trivia: The sound of the dragon Maleficent breathing fire was created by using a flamethrower.
