The death of Andy Gray from coronavirus in January at the age of 61 was not only a personal loss for his fellow actors Allan Stewart and Grant Stott but also the end of a longstanding panto institution. The triple act of Stewart, the dame, Stott, the baddie, and Gray, the clown, reigned supreme here for the best part of two decades. What a voice! Aurora is by far one of the prettiest Disney princesses one thing that initially drew me to the movie as a child , following the formula with those trademark doe-eyes that Disney bestows upon all of their princesses and heroines.
Prince Phillip actually does more than just show up to sing a song and say one line, a welcome change that answers the age old question, "What does she see in him anyway? And of course, there's the quintessential villain -- Maleficent. She scared me when I was younger and when I view the film now, no wonder.
For the longest time, I was also scared of Eleanor Audley period, but she's truly a marvelous actress. And when Phillip kills her -- yeah, you'd better believe that's some scary business. The story is beautiful and funny, the animation is divine, the music ethereal, and the voice talents extraordinary. This is a personal favorite and it comes highly recommended!

Germany's spruce forests date back to the reforestation efforts of the 19th and 20th century, when degraded woodlands were restocked with this fast-growing tree species. Broadleaved forests were also converted to spruce forests.
Peter Meyer shows an area where trees were completely destroyed by the bark beetle. Meyer estimates that this decimated patch of spruce trees in Reinhardswald Nature Park, within hiking distance of Sleeping Beauty's castle, is around 80 years old.
To the average passer-by, the brittle landscape looks like a graveyard of skeletal tree trunks. But Meyer, who has studied trees for more than three decades, sees signs of scraggly new growth; he says if left to its own devices, the forest can heal. Step amid the trees here and the temperature drops away as the sunlight disappears behind a thick canopy of leaves.
Towering oaks -- some dating back years -- stretch their gnarled limbs, cloaked in a shiny jacket of green moss towards the sky. Unlike the decimated spruce forest nearby, this woodland has been spared the devastation caused by bark beetle infestation. Experts hope forests like this one can offer clues as to which tree species may be more resistant to rising temperatures in future.
So far, they have found that "oak trees appear to be more tolerant to drought and water logging, to extremes of climate, than beech trees for example," Meyer says. Meyer holds up a picture taken about years ago of the oak tree behind him. A 21st century enchanted wood. Forests aren't just Germany's lungs -- they are part of its cultural heart. The country's woods are the centuries-old backdrop to fairy tales like "Red Riding Hood," "Snow White" and "Hansel and Gretel;" the ideal, spooky setting for encounters with mythical creatures.
The stories were collected by the Brothers Grimm in the 19th century. They have since been translated into more than languages and are still read to children across the world. The brothers' childhood home at Steinau, in central Germany's Hesse region, has been transformed into a museum.
On a sunny Saturday afternoon, tourists wander around the imposing building where the family lived in the s. Small children squeal with delight as a storyteller dressed as a goat tap-tap-taps on a small wooden door in the pretty gardens; nearby, seven-stone dwarves stand guard by the rose bushes.
