story, Sleeping Beauty, we notice that the earlier versions of the story are more crude and “adult” and as time passed on, the story evolved to become more suitable for a younger audience. Sleeping Beauty became a story of “rape, adultery, sexual rivalry, and attempted cannibalism” (Hallett, 1) to the clean and innocent Disney version we know today.

Disney's Medievalesque Sleeping Beauty "It was not once upon a time, but in a certain time in history, before anyone knew what was happening, Walt Disney cast a spell on the fairy tale. He did not use a magic wand or demonic powers. On the contrary, Disney employed the most up-to-date technological means and used his own American "grit" and ingenuity to appropriate European fairy tales.

until about age 13, I thought that Disney’s, Sleeping Beauty, was the most eminent movie ever. Until I reached age 14, I never noticed any female stereotypes or problems with feminism in this 1959 Disney classic. As I am growing up, and noticing more and more issues in different movies, I am beginning to recognize the issues in Disney films, especially Sleeping Beauty.
