Sleeping Beauty with Helen O'Hara

In episode 56 Sam is joined by Helen O'Hara, journalist, podcaster and writer of Women vs Hollywood: The Fall and Rise of Women in Film. 

Helen has chosen Walt Disney's classic 1959 animation Sleeping Beauty (75 minutes). The film stars the voices of Mary Costa, Eleanor Audley, Verna Felton, Barbara Luddy and Barbara Jo Allen.

Sam and Helen discuss Eyvind Earle's spectacular art design, how women were side-lined in Walt Disney's original animation studio, and why Maleficent is the best Disney villain.
