It s Sexy Disney Princess week Disney released Sleeping Beauty in 1959 as an adaption of both Charles Perrault s 1600 fairytale and The Brothers Grimm version from the early 1800s the third Disney princess they created She was named Aurora and Briar Rose to honor both source materials and modeled after Audrey Hepburn is anyone surprised She is the epitome of beauty and grace In the original tales Sleeping Beauty sleeps for A HUNDRED years They obviously shortened that for the Disney movie Interestingly she was the last princess that Walt Disney had a hand in bringing to life before he passed away During the animation process Walt Disney refused to meet with the voice actress except by phone for fear the actress would muddle his vision of who Sleeping Beauty should be He was intent on making Aurora different from Snow White and a stronger protaganist but by the time the film was released she had only a few minutes of dialogue and was largely a passive character resulting in a large public outcry about Disney s depiction of women and love It would be another 30 years before Disney attempted to tell the story of another Disney princess when they released The Little Mermaid with critical acclaim
