Every time I watch this movie I’m surprised that it’s mostly the story of a bunch of mice getting chased by a cat and then making a dress.
imagine some bitch marrying the prince just because y'all have the same size foot and she got to him first
Dear Disney people,
.........I AM A PRINCESS AND I WANT EVERYTHING TO BE PINK AND MY DAD HAS TO REDECORATE MY ROOM WITH BIG FLUFFY PILLOWS AND PAINT EVERYTHING PINK AND PURPLE AND I WANT GLASS SHOES AND JEWELRY AND I WANT A PRINCE WITH A HORSE!!!!!!
My dad says he'll send you the bill.
Can I please be a princess? Pretty please? My dad says I already am one but I don't believe him.
Hugs and kisses,
Bo

1. I want some glass slippers.
2. The way this film kinda sidesteps the issues of abuse that it's portraying is a powerful moment missed that Disney wouldn't make up for really until Tangled.
3. This film, like most of the other more famous Disney films from this era, is stunning. Cinderella at the ball is some amazing painted set-pieces.
4. "We can do it/we can do it/we can help our Cinderelly" has been stuck in my head for probably 30 years. I still randomly sing it.
5. Watching this with subtitles and seeing the cat's name is spelled properly despite the way the mice pronounce it is satisfyingly funny.
6. Lady Tremaine deserved a worse fate than this film provides.
7. The king is an absurd character that both cracks me up and confuses me. What a strange dynamic with the grand duke.
8. Disney basically added the mice to fill space in this, right?
my life has not known peace since finding out that her dress is actually white
Cinderella is only seventy minutes long, yet it still feels like most of the film is actually about a cat-and-mouse conflict that plays out in Tom-and-Jerry fashion.
Not my favorite Disney film, especially the romantic parts of the plot feel terribly contrived and unrealistic. The story's views of romance are certainly outdated and feel more like an invitation to discuss their relevance today, so I think it isn't fair to dismiss it altogether.
The animation is wonderful and I enjoy the segments with the animals immensely. But it's definitely not among the best animated films from the Disney catalogue.
“Be kind, have courage and always believe in a little magic.” - Cinderella,
This lady talks to mice and she makes them wear clothes... that's her hobbies... and she's friends with an asshole cat.
I hate to be the practical one here but how do we really expect the relationship between Cinderella and the Prince to work out? They have nothing in common... they just stared at each other at a party once and now they are going to get married and stuff. Does the Prince know that Cinderella is friends with mice and birds, or that she grew up a servant... that's a lot of barriers to get past? And what of the prince? Why is he such a great catch, just because of money and looks? I suppose that's enough for a Disney romance. Sad.
It's still pretty cute once you get past the compulsory heterosexuality of it all...
(Walt Disney Animated Series)
So many cute wonderful and villainous characters that simply pop off the screen to help bring this age-old fairy tale to life.
"A dream is a wish your heart makes when you're fast asleep. In dreams you will lose your heartaches .... No matter how your heart is grieving, if you keep on believing, the dream that you wish will come true."
So happy to say I have finally seen this classic Disney masterpiece. I guess my parents must have assumed I would not be interested since this one has been so clearly labeled as a girl/princess movie. Even my boys were reluctant coming into, because of that preconception, but it was such a delight to…
At 21:43 on the 1st February I became a dad for the second time. This time to a bonny baby boy. We let our daughter name him (and after vetoing her choices of flower and buttercup) she chose Jack.
I've not slept since Tuesday and it's Friday now. As you can imagine I'm a teensy bit knackered. We are sitting down as a newly formed family of four watching a perennial family favourite. Baby Jack is asleep in the crook of my arm and I'm typing this one handed on my phone.
I feel like the luckiest man in the world...
...and at this moment Jack has noisily filled his nappy... Sigh.
This has always been one of my least favourite classic Disney films. Growing up it held little interest for me because it was one of their most girly stories (particularly with most of the darker elements stripped from the source material) and even the art direction was bland and uninspired. Compare the look of the film with the striking Sleeping Beauty and it all seems rather safe and too broad in appeal. It has been nearly 15-years since my last viewing and I was curious to see if my views on the film had changed.
Well the answer is a disappointing no. The film is evenly split into two stories; that of the titular and nauseatingly saintly Cinderella, and the…
Too much filler with the gibberish animals but otherwise a bit better than I remember.
I have to say that Cinderella is my least favorite of the princess movies. It was definitely a "comeback" style movie for Disney, where Walt wanted to go gangbusters on the box office and so he tried to emulate the success of Snow White. Sadly, the animation is less interesting (the world just feels smaller), the animation feels more strongly rotoscoped even than Snow White, and the mice are just not as fun as the dwarves.
The worse part is that Disney's ideology of "hard work always pays off" is really transparent and offputting here--previously, where Disney reveled in the beauty of art (Bambi and Fantasia) and dabbled in the follies and struggles of didactic filmmaking (Pinocchio), Cinderella comes across…
Cinderella holds up about as well as I remember. Its story is flimsy, but its charm is unreal. A few things:
(1) Fuck all the haters who say Cinderella is the perfect ideal with no flaws, she has a MAJOR flaw, she’s such a fucking push over!! This movie can still be relevant if we teach our kids why Cinderella is both a good role model because of her kindness and a cautionary tale because of her kindness.
(2) I totally forgot how obsessed the king is with having grand kids. I kind of love that is his end game?? My mom constantly brings up grandchildren to my sister.. she wants her to have them before she gets too old.…
Highest key, Cinderella is an under appreciated bop. Didn’t start to like until adulthood. This bih just wanted to party and have a good time, mood.
Gorgeous lighting and use of shadows, pleasantly surprised by how grounded Cinderella’s character was instead of being all floaty and whimsical like most didnee prinshesh
