Princess Jasmine

a street boy runs into a magic lamp, and transforms into a prince so he can win the heart of the princess of Agrabah. Walt Disney studios collaborated with Ron Clements and John Musker who were both the directors and producers, to create the hour and thirty-minute production (“Aladdin”). Some of the featured players are Scott Weinger as Aladdin, Robin Williams as the Genie, and Linda Larkin as Princess Jasmine.

One of the fewer Disney movies to display women in such an non-classy way, only to further highlight the “normal Arab culture.” In fact, almost all female characters in the film are sexualized.
