Cinderella (1950)
Cinderella (1950) is the ultimate rags-to-royalty fairytale β magical, sweet, and full of sparkly transformations πβ¨. It tells the story of Cinderella, a kind-hearted girl stuck with her evil stepmother and stepsisters who treat her like a maid. But even with all that cruelty, she keeps dreaming and believing something better is coming πποΈ
Then boom β fairy godmother time! With a wave of her wand, she turns pumpkins into carriages, mice into horses, and Cinderella into a total princess, gown and all ππ . But thereβs a catch: the magic wears off at midnight!
At the ball, Cinderella dances with the prince (major swoon π), but she has to run before the spell breaks, leaving behind one glass slipper β cue the kingdom-wide search for the mysterious girl who stole the princeβs heart.
The animation is soft and romantic, the music is charming (βA Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makesβ is iconic), and the story still hits all the feels. Itβs about kindness, hope, and how one magical night can change everything β¨π«
If you love fairy tales with a little sparkle and a lot of heart, Cinderella is a dream worth watching over and over again πππ
