One adaptation that seems to be almost unknown outside of Germany (it's a Christmas classic here) and probably Czecho-Slovakia is "Three Wishes for Cinderella" ("Tři oříšky pro Popelku"/"Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel" - because she gets three magical hazelnuts as a gift, none of that fairy godmother stuff). Which is quite a shame, because it's such a good one, especially for the early 70s. She not only steals the prince's horse, but also joins his hunt in one of the outfits she gets and outshoots everyone, and messes with him a couple times more.

I am sorry, I call out BS on anyone trying to say that Cinderella was "waiting around to be saved". Cinderella is actually a great role model. She didn't let the constant horrific abuse she was going through at the hands of her step mother and sister change her and her core values. And all the girl wanted was a night out, to escape for a bit and forget about her troubles. It was never about the prince. Finding love was just a bonus, or maybe even good karma resulting from her kindness and strength.

Apparently he's not a terribly nice person in real life, either. Bit disappointing. The only thing I think I liked him in was that episode (it might have been 2 episodes) of Dr Who

Once, just once, I want an adaptation where the dynamics are flipped, and Cinderella is the awkward out of touch one, and the stepsisters are the beautiful and smart ones. And instead of destroying her dress, the stepmother actually lets her go, so she can completely humiliate herself in front of the prince with her clumsiness and tacky dress. The prince is the complete opposite, but instead of making up for or overlooking her odd quirks, together they make the quirks work for them. Like if she trips while they're dancing, he turns it into an elaborate dance move. That kind of thing. But the twist here is that instead of the night being magical, it's a nightmare because now she's starting to feel everything she was told growing up, about how embarrassing she is, and runs away when she finally can't take it anymore. Instead of using the slipper, the prince requests she show up at the palace for a dance. Why this is genius: all he girls that show up actually dance beautifully, including the stepsisters, so he KNOWS it's not her. Instead of before the ball, the fairy godmother shows up when Cinderella's hiding herself away, to show her a different perspective of the ball. Specifically, what the prince actually thought of her, and how he saw her, klutz and all.

Honestly, want feminist fairytales? Do the Seven Ravens or Ali Baba. Or a Snowqueen that is not Frozen. Just stop with making Cinderella's that are not like other Cinderella's.

Cinderella, like most fairy tales, is a story about how you should try to be a good person even when the world is sucky and abusive to you. She was in a situation without options, but she is making one of the only choices she has control over: how she will behave to others, especially to those weaker than her like the mice. Surviving abuse with your empathy intact is difficult and requires a lot of intentionality.

I hated the takeaway of Cinderella be read as 'wait for a man to save you'. Ella was kind to all the animals, never raised her voice, and after she had an experience with a man who genuinely made her feel good about herself, learned she deverved better. She didn't turn her back on an open door to get away from a bad household. In my opinion, the 1997 Cinderella best explored this by giving the Prince a personality, who saw Cinderella as an equal, and Cinderella decided to stop waiting for the Prince and leave on her own terms. In this essay, I will-

Well….you can’t deny that her having a man wasn’t an accident given how the movie came out in the 1950s. What people fail to realize that the writers at the time made Cinderella actually needed a man to escape from her abusive household. Why do you think that she was upset when her stepmother locked her in a closet just so she won’t go try her shoe on? We can acknowledge the pros of Cinderella but also acknowledging that the writers were on some bs. Edit: the writers who wrote Cinderella were all males. So, Cinderella was written through the males perspective and that needs to be taken into consideration, especially with how there are videos of people (usually women) criticizing the male gaze. If you look at the three original Disney princesses you’ll see that there’s a strong narrative of kind, young, gentle, *feminine*, pretty women being saved by young men (because they “deserved” it)b at the end and how the villains are older women who are jealous of the younger females beauty to the point they’ll cause them harm Andrew they have no men as their punishment. *Thats* problematic and needs to be discussed. Also, does it really make sense (and realistic) for an abused victim to marry a stranger and have a happily every after??? For all we know, he could have been a shitty ass man! Granted, the later Cinderella movies made him look kind (if I’m remembering correctly). Still, it was a risk for an abused victim to escape from an abusive household and maybe hoping that she won’t be in another abusive household.

I think the message of the movie was money and status can do nothing for you if you're horrible person. Cinderella wanted freedom and love.

I’ve always viewed Cinderella as a story about a girl rescuing herself from an abusive household (which I think Ever After portrayed best because we saw her putting up with actual emotional abuse), so it kinda baffles me when people try to “modernize” the story by making her some kinda girl boss as if escaping abuse didn’t make her a strong character already.

There was a retelling I read that real dived into that idea (I don't know the name off the top of my head) and ended with the Cinderella character not actually in a relationship, as both she and her love interest thought it was important for her to find her own footing in the world outside her abusive family. It wasn't the best book, but it did good job.

I mean, og Cinderella wasn’t out for a man, wasn’t trying to get someone to save her, and ultimately saved herself through her own acts of kindness to others (specifically to the animals). Her relationship with the prince was what gave her a vehicle to escape her abusive situation and a path to a happier life. I’ve never thought that that movie was about needing a man to save you, that just seems somewhat ridiculous to me.

@k.d3983

if you look at the original Disney movies, you’ll notice that being kind and pretty always makes the girl get a man in the end. While the ugly women don’t get the men, and they’ll be punished for not behaving feminine enough. It’s not a coincidence that this trope happens. And, has anyone noticed that in the original Disney princess films, the villain is always an older, « ugly » woman who exhibits more masculine traits and is jealous of the main females beauty? “Her relationship with the prince was what gave her a vehicle to escape her abusive situation and a path to a happier life.” Which is what people criticize the film for doing - that Cinderella actually *needed* a man to escape from her abusive household. For the nuance, it makes sense given how it might have been nearly impossible for Cinderella to be a woman without fortune living by herself. But like I said before, there is a certain narrative in Cinderella that’s problematic. In today’s times, we can’t help but wonder if Cinderella actually did try to escape her situation but probably got punished for trying to escape. Or, she realized that it was too difficult to live out on her own. Given how she was a maid/slave to her family, one can’t help but wonder if she could have been someone else’s maid but got paid for her labor. Edit: people need to remember that this movie was written in the 50s by *all* males. Cinderella gets rewarded for having a man by being a feminine, gentle, kind, pretty young woman. Think about it- Cinderella Nevers outright complains about her situation to her family. We can see that she gets upset about it, but she never screams at them to stop hurting her. The closest we got was when her step-sisters tore her dress and her step mom locked her in her room. Even then, she was protesting softly because that’s what feminine women are supposed to do, according to rigid gender norms at the time. And for some people who would say « but not all abuse victims scream when they’re getting abused » AGAIN, separate abusive victims from the 21st century to how Cinderella was written by all males who scripted her to act a certain way on *how* she gets abused. People want to complain about Cinderella being criticized for her femininity, yet people don’t acknowledge that a) Cinderella gets rewarded for her femininity throughout the film b) how her femininity makes her sisters and step mom make them more violent towards her because they’re more masculine than she is (I.e. being loud, not gentle, aggressive) and c) her family gets punished for being ugly and [more] masculine in the end. And to add on to my point- the film makes it very clear that being feminine would also mean that you have to act like it. While the stepfamily wore dresses, they weren’t behaving feminine. While Cinderella did wear rags (they still looked pretty feminine), she still behaved feminine. The film implied that being feminine has to be an internal and external thing. And if you’re both, you’ll be rewarded for it. You can like Cinderella the character, but also realized that her movie had some sexist/problematic things going on. Edit 2: I actually don’t like how they make pretty young women be kind when some of them can be downright cruel while some who are « ugly » can actually be the sweetest person that you’ll ever meet.

@@k.d3983 A lot of people in abusive households have needed the help of others in order to leave--yes even the help of men. A story about a lifelong abuse victim receiving outside help to escape her abuser is not in any way problematic. Otherwise, that would imply that real world abuse victims who needed help are also problematic, and they are certainly not. Not every story has to be about someone who is so amazing that they can save themselves from every situation. That's one of the most unrealistic tropes ever portrayed, in my opinion, both for men and women. Most human beings in general need help most of the time. It's highly rare to be the kind of person who can successfully make it through their entire life without ever needing help from anyone.

He was the Fairy GodMuvah. That’s literally what he said. I’m glad that you mention about this.

I always loved the narrative symmetry of 50's Cinderella. Her first act is sassing the clock for getting on her case "Even he orders me around" but insists that nothing will break her spirit. Then she hears that a mouse is in a trap and frees, clothes and names him (as she has probably done for all the other animals). A few scenes later, we meet the stepmother and Cinderella faces harsh punishment for allowing the mice anywhere near her (her kindness is punished but she still does it), and Cinderella is framed in barred shadows just like the cage she freed Gus from- here is her cage. When the mice find out she won't have the chance to fix her dress on top of the 100 other chores, they choose to make her dress the same way she made clothes for every one of them. The clothes are tied with escape from the cage, even if it's just for one night out where she gets to be a real person. She is 100% not sitting around to be saved to become a baby maker. She wants a night out, the prince is just gravy. She stands up for herself to her family where she can (i.e. "I'm invited to the ball too, it says _every_ eligible maiden") and needing help to escape a financially, emotionally and physically abusive family she's been stuck with since childhood is hardly something to be ashamed of. Not letting that abuse twist her heart is something to be really proud of, too.

Their version of "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" has a special place in my heart.

I loved the 2015 version of Cinderella. It represented who Cinderella was as a person. Not some super mega bratty boss lady (which is how I feel most female leads are today). But as a strong, feminine, kind, loving women who suffered through years of abuse without giving up at least some hope. Even in her own pain she wanted to make sure that others were feeling better. And she worked to the best of her ability even to those she didn’t like. 2021 version of Cinderella stole that magic from her. I want women to be strong and confident. But as the woman they are and were meant to be. Not some overly pressured cliche female figure we see in our culture today.

The thing with "girlboss" and female empowerment narratives is a LOT of it comes off as both bitter and FAR removed from reality. Women have been doing pretty damned well for a few decades and continuing to blame any issues faced by individual women on some *broad* societal limitation is VERY damaging imo. It absolves the abusers (companies, industries or individuals) doing that shit and it makes people bitter (men and women) I fucking LOVE me some female empowerment fantasy, but done poorly it's just.... annoying. More so because I LIKE the theme.

Cartoon Jasmine just wanted to have a say in her own life. To not be forced to do something just because it is expected of her. I hardly think that's shallow. Cartoon Mulan fought for her spot by training above and beyond, and she did it out of love for her father. She was no more special than any other man that were training to be soldiers. She wasn't gifted with chi or any other superhuman strength. Somehow it feels like the live action princesses are downplaying the femininity of their characters. As though "feminine" qualities will always be inferior to "masculine" ones. That kindness, resilience, patience are too soft compared to power and ambition. How is it even uplifting their princesses when they replaced the feminine traits with masculine ones to show their value and progression?

Idk, a lot of people write her off as weak just because she didn't fight back against her abusers in a violent way.

Yes! A young woman who survived growing up in an abusive home with her own compassion, creativity and sense of self intact is a good message that too many people ignore. Considering how she grew up, the fact that she had the courage to defy her stepmother says a lot. Cinderella did take action to get out when opportunity presented itself, and it's also ok that she got help. Sometimes people need help to get out of a bad situation.

I never thought Cinderella was really “waiting around for a man to save her”. And when I was little and she married the Prince and became the Princess, I was like “heck yeah. She’s never gonna have to scrub a floor or sleep on a cot ever again. Good for her.” I definitely like Ever After better because in the end, she basically says “screw it. I’ve got nothing left to lose. I’ll save myself dang it”, but they still kept the Prince trying to help her get free. And the prince had way more personality and their relationship was way better developed. But as a kid, I never took “wait for a man to save you” from Cinderella. I took “treat people the way you want to be treated”, “be kind to little animals”, and “never turn your back on an open door” from Cinderella.

I still think the best Cinderella adaptation is Ever After. All the characters are well-rounded, even the step-mother showing some genuine care at some points without it making her actions seem unmotivated, and things aren't over-simplified, they have weaknesses and strengths, and Danielle (or Cinderella) saves herself in the end. The framework of it being a real love story that was simply reduced to a fairytale is also very beautiful.

My personal favourite version of Cinderella is The Slipper and the Rose. It's not very well known but it's the most realistic and contextually accurate version. Made in the 70s, it lays out the hopelessness of Cinderellas situation, shows why the stepmother is the way she is as a single woman having to find her daughter's a good match, it shows a lot more of Prince and how he feels about the situation and why he's reluctant to marry, and it gives the fairy godmother an actual character and story. Also, it continues on from when the Prince and Cinderella decide to marry and shows the political challenges that come with it. Its a beautiful movie with incredible costumes and sets, fantastic music by the people who did Mary Poppins, and truly interesting characters and plot. Also, it's the queens favourite movie, so it must be good 😂

I teach first graders and literally, all of my girls have dream jobs that don't involve "princess" or "wife". Like, young girls already realize that women can have careers.

Well the movie and the theatre productions are wildly different things.

The 2015 Cinderella is my favorite and her dress was absolutely STUNNING

Why do people keep trying to make Cinderella “strong” when I have a hard time thinking of something stronger than staying kind and courageous in the face of emotional and physical abuse. Oh right it’s because the media is incapable of seeing a woman as strong unless she shows traditionally “masculine” traits, like being crass and or physically strong or showing no emotion (unless being witty.) Not saying those are masculine traits, but I do think there’s a reason we always see those traits on “strong female characters”. I liked the live action Cinderella. While she could’ve done more to actively try and get out of her situation, she still managed to remain optimistic and kind, which is what eventually snagged her the prince. And the prince was so sweet, when he cried upon seeing her at the ball, I cried too, ahhhh- Sorry. I’m just sick of these tawdry girl boss stories. This one at least made some unique choices with it. I like that “I choose me” line too.

Yeah, people accuse her of just wanting to marry a man and like. . .she never went to the ball with the intention of landing a man (but, and I say this as a feminist, that wouldn't be bad of her if she did, as in that time period it would be her best bet for escaping an abusive situation) she just wanted the same equal opportunity to go to the ball that every other woman was getting.

It upsets me how sh*tty James Corden has become, I'm a huge classical theatre lover and when he was younger he was amazing in a brilliant deep Alan Bennet play called the History Boys and then shone in One man Two guvnors.

If you're looking for the official phrase, Amanda: this is called a jukebox musical. Moulin Rouge is one of the great ones, imo. Also Happy Feet! I feel like this kind of musicals tends to be either great or terrible depending on how they're done. Lately a lot of biopics have been jukebox musicals. Bohemian Rhapsody kind of sucked (*cough bi erasure cough*) while Rocket Man was pretty great!

I always thought Cinderella genuinely liked the prince. She didn't need any man but had fun with this one. Imagine you go out and have a pretty fun first date. You dance and talk. He is great. Your parents are gonna kill you if you are late and in the rush to get back home, you didn't give him your number. He thought you were interested too and tried to find you from mutual friends. Maybe he would have stopped if said you weren't interested, even after you he finds you. Why make him a villain or her a victim? Why not leave it as a cute love story? Why make him into an obsessive creep he is not? I get that women are not for only love stories. But she was kind, gentle and wanted love. She would make a good queen. You don't watch before sunrise movie and say, dude she just wanted to ride a train not have someone follow her all day. Maybe that wasn't her original interest but she found something nice.

But maybe consider the fact that people and circumstances were quite different back then. Another perspective is a lesser romantic one. She was in a terrible place and here is an appealing solution.

'Ever After' is still my favorite version of the Cinderella story. Danielle (Cinderella) was from an honest family, she was educated but had known hard work. She taught the Prince not only how to love. But she also taught him how to be a better man, Prince and son. She was his equal in every way. He had real feelings and respect for her by the end of the story. If you have not seen it, I would definitely recomend. Much better than whatever this was trying to be...

That song was actually entertaining to watch - the only scene I watched in regular speed where as for the rest of the movie I had to play it at 1.5x speed it being so boring. That random “eye candy” farmboy pitching in at random moments was so weird and awkward it made it somewhat funny - even though I don't think that was the intended purpose😂 The step sisters’ dance was also overdone in a way where you could kind of tell it was self-deprecating and done on purpose. A bop of sure. And the only song that didn’t made the singers' voices sound awkward for some reason. Like you said, we know Camila can sing. Why does she sound like she’s got strep throat😂 At least Idina made the 2 hours of my life I can’t get back from watching this movie into something that was not at least a complete waste of time…sort of lol (btw, I felt the same way about Jasmine in the live-action remake.

"Oh, that clock! Old killjoy. I hear you, "Get up!" you say, "Time to start another day!". Even he orders me around. Well, there is one thing: They can't order me to stop dreaming." I think that's beautiful. Even though she's suffering badly, Cinderella never gave up hope, always kept a positive mental attitude. She was physically restricted by her abusers, but they could never have her mind. And, in the end, it's her determination, hopefulness, and kindness towards other unfortunate victims (the animals) that save her. The prince helped, of course. I'd argue that she just needed to form a relationship (romantic or otherwise) outside her household, and that was the push she needed to break her own chains. SHE is the one who faces up to her stepmother in the end, not the prince. He's not even present in the climax (he's barely in the movie, really).

Best cinderella story was Ever After, and I’m not a huge Barrymore fan. The prince fell in love with who she was and in the end she stood up for herself like a badass. You can’t tell me this version does that better.

So the reason they kept so much diversity (it seems like) in the cast (like the queen being black, the king being white and the prince being Filipino, was to retain that sort of 'stage play' casting feel. But that whole adaptation was interesting too, as it gave the Prince a story as well. In the end, the same story is that Cinderella wanted freedom, she just /happened/ to fall in love with a prince.

The thing about Cinderella though is she isn’t waiting for a prince, she sings about dreaming of a better life and how stuck she is in her family. She wants to go to the ball to get a chance to go out and see the world and dance and have fun, not just to meet and marry the prince. In fact she has every expectation that this is gonna be her one night of freedom she knows it all ends at midnight and she is ok with that. She likes the prince but it’s only when she discovers he is looking for her that she sees her opportunity. I think being extremely kind and caring in the face of abuse is a really great message!
