VHS Movie Reviews of Glass Slipper
Movie Review: Best Version of the Cinderella Story EVER!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my hands down favorite translation of the Cinderella fairytale I have ever seen put on film! I only wish they would put it on DVD. VHS is such and outdated format and it's hard to come by a good VCR that can properly play older tapes. And the cost of owning these hard to find gems is ridiculous. Why wouldn't a company want to turn a dollar on a classic movie? Leslie Caron is a delightful Cinderella and the "Fairy Godmother" is a hoot! The dance sequences are breathtaking and brilliantly executed. The film is a treasure!!Movie Review: One of the best Cinderella stories ever made!
Summary: 5 Stars
I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this movie!! I just wish it was made in DVD format so I can watch it! It's only available in VHS and I don't own a VCR!
Other then that I love the music, the costumes, the dancing, the fairy Godmother, the step sisters, the prince and the rest of the cast!
Movie Review: The Glass Slipper
Summary: 5 Stars
I LOVE this movie!!! The music, the costumes, the different personalities they gave to the old characters is great and very simply done. Leslie Caron was charming and lovely in this.
I wish this was made in a DVD or someone would redo it into a DVD form, I would LOVE to buy it for my mom and older sister who love old movies like this one!!!!
Movie Review: Cinderella With Heart!
Summary: 5 Stars
"The Glass Slipper" is a modern interpretation of the classic fairy tale. And it's a good one. Leslie Caron is cast as Ella, a girl almost destroyed by the death of her mother and the lack of understanding shown her by her insensitive stepmother (Elsa Lanchester) and haughty stepsisters ("Gunsmoke's" Amanda Blake, and Lisa Daniels.) The local villagers are likewise indifferent to her, and (as narrator Walter Pigeon dryly observes), her spirit is in danger of being broken as a result. Enter local "madwoman/kleptomaniac" Estelle Winwood, who, simply by reaching out to the defiant girl, gives her confidence and hope. Yes, she's the film's equivalent of the fairy godmother, and she is wonderful in the part. Although the prince (a mature Michael Wilding) leaves a bit to be desired in the dancing department, he is perfectly all right otherwise. Keenan Wynn is wasted as his companion, but Barry Jones is amusing as the prince's father, and Miss Lanchester makes a suitably nasty stepmother. But what of Leslie Caron? Well, she goes from neglected little spitfire to luminous princess effortlessly, and her appearance at the ball is a treat. The ballet sequences do tend to slow the film down, but Miss Caron did begin her career as a dancer, and she has a grace few others could match. The music by Bronislaw Kaper perfectly enhances the mood, as does the modest but tasteful production. Strangely enough, this could be called the original "Ever After", because, except for a delightful twist at the end, the tale is told as if it could have happened. All in all, a captivating version of "Cinderella", and one which will linger in your memory. [phillindholm]Movie Review: Great film!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this film!! I found it one day as a teenager on t.v., but can't seem to find it to watch unless I sign up for TMC (Turner Classic Movies, which is on Digital with Comcast & costs a bit more than I'm able to pay at this time). This is a classic, worth adding to any collection!! The one thing that I found somewhat boring is the ballet where Ella is dreaming about losing her prince (they start dancing together, but then he is "changed" into a prince ready to marry an Egyptian princess, and he totally ignores Ella). I can't wait to share it with my children. (Now, if they'd only enhance it for DVD!!)
