Disney's Princess Aurora awoke for the very first time when the animated Sleeping Beauty premiered in California on this day in 1959. Based on a fairy tale by Charles Perrault, Sleeping Beauty was the last fairy tale produced by Disney until 1989's The Little Mermaid.

Love this film. The look, the music, the story. I don't think that 1959 audience was quite ready for such a masterpiece as this. But looking back, there's no doubt about it...one of the best!
