Cinderella (1950)

Arcata Theatre Lounge

Cinderella (1950) is an American animated musical fantasy film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and based on the fairy tale “Cendrillon” by Charles Perrault. Cinderella, treated as a slave by her selfish stepfamily, dreams of going to the Prince’s ball. She gets her wish courtesy of her Fairy Godmother, who does the pumpkin-into-coach bit, then delivers the requisite “be home by midnight” warning. Thoroughly enchanting the prince at the ball, our heroine hightails it at midnight, leaving a glass slipper behind. The Disney people do a terrific job building up suspense before the inevitable final romantic clinch. Cinderella is a delightful feature, enhanced immeasurably by the introduction of several “funny animal” characters (a Disney tradition that has held fast into the 1990s, as witness Pocahontas), and a host of a sprightly songs, including “Cinderelly,” “A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes,” and best of all “Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo.”
