Talk:Sleeping Beauty (1959 film)

Clyde Geronimi, Hamilton Luske, and Wolfgang Reitherman
Why didn't Hamilton Luske direct this film if he directed the previous four Disney Animation Cannon films along w/ Wilfred Jackson and Clyde Geronimi? I think Wilfred Jackson was replaced by Wolfgang Reitherman from then on. I know that Jackson was replaced by Eric Larson as director & that Eric Larson was replaced by Clyde according to references on the article for this movie in the production delays part of the Production section but again, the latter of the four was already a director of the previous three films from Walt Disney Animation Studios (then Walt Disney Productions). I wonder why Wolfgang Reitherman was chosen. Evope (talk) 17:24, 3 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I don't know about the internal politics of the Disney studio at the time. But the only directorial credit of Hamilton Luske in the late 1950s was Donald in Mathmagic Land (1959).
