The artists were polarized between newcomers hungry to innovate and old timers not yet ready to relinquish control.

Only a miracle or a magic spell could produce a happy ending. Waking Sleeping Beauty is no fairy tale. It's the true story of how Disney regained its magic with a staggering output of hits - "Little Mermaid," "Beauty and the Beast ," "Aladdin," "The Lion King," and more - over a 10-year period.

Citizen Kane, The Conformist, and Gordon Willis get special attention.
