Granny O’Grimm’s Sleeping Beauty from Darragh O'Connell on Vimeo.

Here’s a Monday treat: Nicky Phelan’s Academy Award-nominated animated short Granny O’Grimm’s Sleeping Beauty… a grim rendition of the classic in which a seemingly sweet old lady terrifies her granddaughter with her tale. The elderly fairy doesn’t get invited to the christening… and let’s just say that’s not good in this Grimm tale. I love this line: “When it comes to the harsh lessons of this life, beauty isn’t going to get you very far.” Happy Monday.
