Summary: Why is there no Region 1 DVD release available?
Comment: Why is there no Region 1 DVD release of Sleeping Beauty available? All of the other Cannon Movietales (except this and the Frog Prince)are available. I think it is unfair that the two best ones are not available. Please release this and the Frog Prince on region 1 DVD. Pretty please!!!

Summary: almost as good as the disney version but not quite
Comment: I'd say this version is second best to the disney version. It has some nice characters and the songs are cute. I like "quickly now quickly","dare me", and "slumber" with great vocals from the prince. I also like how the fairys do a slow motion ballet dance to the sleeping beauty waltz. I'd reccomend this but you should see the disney version first.

Summary: Wonderful...a movie to be enjoyed by all ages
Comment: I LOVE LOVE LOVE this movie!!!! I saw it for the first time when I was really young like 5 or 6 my parents taped it off t.v. for me. I remember sitting and watching the movie everyday for like a year. Now I'm 16 and I still love it. The dances and songs are beautiful. I just found my tape it's getting really worn out and I'm excited to find it on tape for sale. If you haven't seen this movie yet you should it's wonderful!

Summary: "quickly now quickly, blow out the candle....."
Comment: This version of SLEEPING BEAUTY, part of the Cannon MovieTales series, is a real charmer.
The story is told pretty much as we all remember, but with a few new touches. A childless King and Queen are given a magical potion by a kindly elf. When the lovely Princess Rosebud is born, all the fairies are invited to bestow gifts upon the child. However, due to a miscounting of the golden dinner plates, the fearsome Red Fairy is left off the guest-list. Enraged, she gatecrashes the event and curses Rosebud to a premature death from the prick of a spindle. The wise White Fairy remedies the curse by changing the death to sleep, and the awakening of Rosebud with the kiss of true love. In the meanwhile, all spindles are banned from the kingdom.
In the passing years, with all the clothes in the kingdom dissolved to rags because of the absence of spindles and sewing-needles, the King and Queen travel to the far reaches and bring back reams of fabrics. During their absence, the Red Fairy sees the perfect opportunity to see her curse come true...
Morgan Fairchild, Tahnee Welch, Jane Weidlin and Sylvia Miles all offer fine performances in this adaptation of the oft-told fairytale. There is a certain campy charm about the Cannon MovieTales series, which were filmed rather economically in Israel (and you'll notice that many of the films have the same sets). The score isn't terribly complex but is enjoyable and features "Spin Spin Spin", "Life is Rosier Today" and "Slumber". Even Tchaikovsky's famed score is used for the christening scene.
Charming family viewing.
