Disney’s Newest Princess

Author: disneytalks Categories: Characters, Movies, Walt Disney

Disney Talks - Newest Princess: Tiana on The Princess and the FrogOn my childhood, I remember that I always love to watch movie about Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, etc. I remember, although at that time I only watch the pictures and didn’t understand about the whole story, I love to watch the characters. But most of all, I love to hear the song. The one which makees Wlat Disney’s movies different is because the songs, how they mix it to the story and becomes a wonderful musical animation. Unfortunately, nowadays, it is very rare to find the musical animation again. That’s why I love Enchanted, the movie which has a lot of beautiful songs.
