Directed by: Clyde Geronimi
Starring: Verna Felton, Eleanor Audley, Bill Shirley, Mary Costa
Other mistake: When the three fairies are cleaning up the cottage, Merriwether has the broom magically sweep all the dust into a pile, then she makes the pile disappear. Right after it does so, the picture is stuck in a freeze-frame for about half a second.
Other mistake: Aurora is celebrating her sixteenth birthday but there are only 14 candles on her birthday cake.
Factual error: Maleficent states that Princess Aurora will prick her finger on a spindle - the part of a spinning wheel that holds the bobbin. Spindles aren't sharp; what Aurora actually pricks her finger on is the distaff, which is used to hold the fiber before it is spun.
Prince Phillip: Now, father, you're living in the past. This is the 14th century.
Trivia: If you look closely, there are many "Mickeys" in the scenery. For example, look in the bushes in various scenes and you will see three circles that form Mickey's head.
Question: Does anyone know Maleficent's raven's name?
