Film Case Study - Maleficent

Key scenes:

These scenes include intertextual references to the original Disney movie, meaning the scenes are very similar...
- Maleficent visiting the castle and approaching the king (Aurora's father)
- Maleficent has the same type of powers (this can be seen by the green glow in both Maleficent and the original film)
- Both films also include scenes of Sleeping Beauty becoming friends with animals/creatures within the forest
- Of course, Aurora sleeping and touching the spinning wheel by being cursed are included in both as these are significant parts of the original tale
- The dark forest forming around the castle as part of the curse
- The dragon towards the end of the film
