By the mid-1980s, the fabled animation studios of Walt Disney had fallen on hard times. The artists were polarized between newcomers hungry to innovate and old timers not yet ready to relinquish control. The following is no fairy tale. It's the true story of how Disney regained its magic with a staggering output of hits such as The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, The Lion King, and others.

With astonishing craft and style, Waking Sleeping Beauty delivers a ripping yarn, peeling back the curtains of the Disney animation studio during a tumultuous 10-year period that took it from the lows of The Black Cauldron to the mighty highs of The Lion King. Constructed by veteran director Don Hahn, this lively film feeds fans a steady stream of tasty morsels, as the machinations inside the mouse house come to light. See a timid teenage Tim Burton hunched over his animation desk! Thrill to John Lassiter's (Toy Story, Up) handheld home movies! Revel in the battles between Michael Eisner and Jeffrey Katzenberg! Rarely do we get a chance to see this collision of commerce and art, of giant personalities and grand ideas. Taking the creativity that lifted Disney out of its rut, Waking Sleeping Beauty harnesses it to tell the stories behind that effort. (DW) Ragtag screening presented by Walt Disney's hometown Marceline, MO.
