Mousterpiece Cinema, Episode 126: “Sleeping Beauty”

Did you know that a dream is a wish your heart makes? And we knew you, once upon such a very dream. OK, OK, we’re not actually confusing the topic of this week’s Mousterpiece Cinema, the 1959 Disney classic Sleeping Beauty, with the 1950 Disney classic, Cinderella, but can you blame us? The two movies, as well as the old favorite Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, maybe share a few too many similarities, all of which are unearthed and uncovered on the new show. Gabe and Josh are joined by longtime friend of the show Kate Kulzick of The Televerse and Sound on Sight’s TV section to tackle this lush and artistic standby of Disney’s animated canon. But is the romance of two pretty people enough to trump a surprisingly high number of plot holes and a lack of character? Or will there only be one brave soul to stand in defense of this movie in the face of at least one dragon-like opponent? You can only find out by listening to the new show, so don’t wait another minute!
