In reply to Juliette Deroulede. The Slipper and the Rose is a wonderful version, I agree. And yes, it would make for a great review on our site! Thanks for the suggestion. :)

Oh my word, I can’t believe you missed the most beautiful and romantic version of Cinderella ever!!! Check it out, it’s called The Slipper and the Rose, starring Richard Chamberlain and Gemma Craven, made in 1976. I can’t imagine a more gorgeous film, the costumes are lovely, the music unforgettable, the scenery to die for. Songs written by the Sherman brothers. This story actually gives the prince a name and personality, telling it more from his perspective than Cinderella’s. And, just to convince you that it’s truly the best, it was chosen by the Queen of England to be the Royal Command Performance film of the year. Please don’t miss it! And I’d love to see you do a review on it! (Find it free on youtube videos)

My absolute favorite is Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella staring Lesley Ann Warren. The best EVER!

Aside from this brand-new Cinderella film (which I thought was beautiful), I always enjoy Ever After, Ella Enchanted and even the modern, teen Cinderella series. Into the Woods is also charming, albeit in its own unique way. Fun list, Julia! 🙂

Honestly, I loved this new one. It made me feel like a little girl again, dreaming of going to the ball and seeing Prince Charming. I really loved it and thought it was so beautifully made.

There’s also a slightly campy musical version which isn’t bad called The Slipper and The Rose from the 70’s which might interest you. As for Ella Enchanted, on its own is a decent film, but when you compare it to the book it just pales terribly in comparison.
