NRThe fully authorized Vincent Price documentary reveals far more than the man behind Hollywood’s master of the macabre. It traces a life of elegant contradictions: a classically trained actor who redefined screen villainy with charm and intelligence, an erudite art lover and seasoned gourmand who found equal joy in low-budget horror and high culture, and—ironically, in his later years—a warm, avuncular patriarch to generations who grew up on his films, television appearances, and iconic voice. Through rare archives and deeply personal interviews, the film explores how Price embraced this unexpected cultural role, transforming from a suave antagonist into a beloved mentor figure whose presence felt both timeless and reassuring.

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.
