I know you

Today I watched Maleficent. Just as The Australian Women’s Weekly rated Sleeping Beauty in 1960, I give it 3/3 stars for Excellent (article through Trove). The stories have the same haunting music of Tchaikovsky and green smoke clouds. Fauna, Flora and Merryweather are godmothers in the original movie, with a shift to being Aunties in the newer movie.

“Evil Maleficent”

Lana Del Rey’s version of “Once Upon a Dream” is childhood made decadent, do stay during the credits.
