However, the huntsman takes pity on the young beauty and sets her free. Alone and lost in the forest, she soon meets a group of kindly dwarfs, who provide her with friendship and a place to sleep.

Walt Disney Studios first feature film to combine live action and animation.

Disney's animated version of the classic Cinderella story features an outrageously wicked stepmother and a subplot about the cat and mice who live in Cinderella's house. Enslaved by her stepmother and two ugly sisters, the beautiful Cinderella seems destined to miss the glittering party at which the Prince will choose his bride. However, a magical makeover courtesy of her Fairy Godmother gets her to the ball on time and Cinders begins to cast her own spell on the Prince.
Collection of four animated Disney features adapted from fairy tale stories. 'Tangled' (2010) is a retelling of the classic Brothers Grimm fairy tale 'Rapunzel'. While hiding out in a seemingly abandoned tower deep in the forest, handsome young bandit Flynn Rider (voice of Zachary Levi) is surprised to discover that the tower does in fact have an occupant in the form of feisty long-haired teen Rapunzel (Mandy Moore). Rapunzel, who has been looking for a means of escape from the tower in which she has been grounded for her entire life, strikes a deal with the dashing outlaw and the unlikely pair soon find themselves caught up in the adventure of a lifetime as they face magic, monsters and villains in their quest for freedom. In 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs' (1937), also based on a fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm, Snow White (Adriana Caselotti) is born pure and beautiful, so beautiful that her evil stepmother orders a huntsman to take her into the forest and kill her. However, the huntsman takes pity on the young beauty and sets her free. Alone and lost in the forest, she soon meets a group of kindly dwarfs, who provide her with friendship and a place to sleep. But the evil stepmother is still at large, planning to kill Snow White using the tried and tested method of a poisoned apple. In 'The Little Mermaid' (1989), based on Hans Christian Andersen's story, Ariel (Jodi Benson) is the mermaid daughter of King Triton (Kenneth Mars), and lives beneath the waves. However, Ariel longs to see the world above, especially after rescuing a handsome prince from drowning. To this end she makes a deal with sea witch Ursula (Pat Carroll): Ariel can live above the sea in exchange for her beautiful singing voice. Ariel soon regrets her decision, however, when it transpires that her father's kingdom is at risk. In 'Sleeping Beauty' (1959), adapted from another folk tale written by the Brothers Grimm, Princess Aurora (Mary Costa) falls into a deep and endless sleep on her 16th birthday as a result of a curse put on her when she was born by the evil fairy Maleficent (Eleanor Audley). Only a kiss from Prince Phillip (Bill Shirley) can wake Aurora, and three good fairies set out to engineer that event.
Double bill of Disney's 'Peter Pan' adventures. The first film, 'Peter Pan' (1953), tells the story of what happens when Peter Pan, the boy who refuses to grow up, visits the Darling family nursery and takes the children on a magical journey to Never Land. When they arrive they become embroiled in an on-going battle between Peter, his friends the Lost Boys, and the wicked Captain Hook, a pirate who has lost his hand and his watch to a hungry crocodile. In the sequel, 'Return to Never Land' (2001), Wendy Darling is now a grown-up woman with a 12-year-old daughter of her own; but the daughter, Jane, no longer believes her mother's tales about Peter Pan and the Lost Boys, thinking herself too old for stories of fairies and magical lands. So when Captain Hook's pirate ship appears in the sky above London and swoops down to kidnap the cynical young lady, it's fair to say that she has to reconsider her worldview. Held captive in Never Land, Jane discovers that Hook is still out to get Peter Pan - but can she find a way to help Peter avoid the pirate's trap?
Disney's sixth animated feature is a mix of live action and cartoons, in which old favourites Donald Duck and Goofy set off on a South American journey of discovery. Donald has trouble with a stubborn llama, Goofy tries his hand at being a cowboy, and their parrot friend Jose Carioca tours the sites of Rio de Janiero.
Disney's liberal adaptation of J.M. Barrie's famous story has now become a classic in its own right. It tells the story of what happens when Peter Pan, the boy who refuses to grow up, visits the Darling family nursery and takes the children on a magical journey to Never Never Land. When they arrive they become embroiled in an ongoing battle between Peter, his friends the Lost Boys, and the wicked Captain Hook, a pirate who has lost his hand and his watch to a hungry crocodile.
Walt Disney's second full-length animated feature focuses on the famous wooden puppet who wants nothing more than to be a real boy. Pinocchio (voiced by Dick Jones) is the wood-carved creation of Geppetto (Christian Rub). When the pair are visited by the Blue Fairy, she grants Pinocchio the opportunity to become a real, flesh-and-blood boy, but only if he learns to be brave, honest and unselfish. To this end Pinocchio is granted a conscience, one which comes in the shape of the diminutive Jiminy Cricket (Cliff Edwards). However, Pinocchio soon discovers that being good is not as easy as it sounds. The film won two Oscars, for Best Song ('When You Wish Upon a Star') and Best Original Score.
