animation meme: [5/15] movies: Sleeping Beauty (1959)

Sweet princess, if through this wicked witch’s trick, a spindle should your finger prick… a ray of hope there still may be in this, the gift I give to thee. Not in death, but just in sleep, the fateful prophecy you’ll keep. And from this slumber you shall wake, when true love’s kiss, the spell shall break.

“I’m worse on some days than on others. There are times when I can’t stand the sight of workers on the stage. I keep hearing voices which say, ‘Who told her that she can act,’ ‘Isn’t she awful,’ 'I could do better myself.’” – Joan Crawford
