Summary: There's a reason the good reviews are for the VHS version
Review: I have never heard such dreadful sound quality on a DVD as on this one. What a terrible thing to have done to a wonderful Rodgers and Hammerstein score. And what an insult to fans of this best-of-all-the-"Cinderellas" who've been waiting so long to see this on DVD. Some tone-deaf ninny should get canned for this.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Sinful DVD
Review: Please STOP ! Someone must have stayed awake and thought long and hard for ways to ruin this dvd. BUY THE VHS version...THAT picture is clear and the sound is great ! The dvd is WAY out of focus, and the sound comes from a tin can and a string !
How utterly disappointing !

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Run, Don't Walk, To Buy This Movie!!!
Review: If you have never seen this movie you are truly in for a treat! Not only is the story timeless, the music is supreme!!! With songs like "Impossible", "In My Own Little Corner", and on and on, and actors, the likes of which we will never see again, Celeste Holm and Ginger Rodgers, and Walter Pidgeon. But, as far as I am concerned, Leslie Ann Warren is Cinderella! She is the most beautiful Cinderella that I have ever seen, and her voice is beautiful in this movie.

I can remember, back to 1965, as a child of 10 watching this movie on a black and white TV for the very first time, in it's theatrical debut. It was so wonderful, and the memories of those times, flood right back I see it now. This production is timeless...it survives the test of time.

So, for those of you who have never seen this movie, you will most definitely enjoy it, and want to see it, and hear it again and again. And for those of you, like me, it is an extra special treat to own it now, so that I can see it whenever I want! You won't be disappointed with this one! Enjoy!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Greatest Cinderella Ever!!
Review: I loved it when this came on tv every year. I am listening to the soundtrack from this production. I can't wait for this to come out. Lesley Ann Warren had the perfect innocence to play Cinderella. Anyone who remembers this and who have daughters needs to buy this.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Amazing Film, Horrendous Picture Quality DVD
Review: I bought this yesterday (...) and I was thrilled to get my hands on it. I, like many of you have grown up with this enchanting version of the classic fairy tale. But the DVD picture is full of blurriness, lacking a lot of clarity, random lines cross the screen throughout, and it looks like a poor quality VHS that was recorded from TV 15 years ago. The sound is okay, but I'm just happy enough to be able to own this, so I try to look over the many picture flaws of the DVD while watching it. If you love this film, you must buy it, but be warned, it is nowhere near the capabalities of DVD or even a regular VHS.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best Cinderella Ever
Review: I believe that this is the best Cinderella ever made because the music is so wonderful and the cast is one of the best I have ever seen.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My favorite children movie
Review: I have not seen this as an adult. As a child it was one of the best movies i had seen, next to Wizard of Oz.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: timeless innocence!
Review: Every year since the dawn of vhs, I have searched high and low for this movie. It is with great joy that I have finally found it! Leslie Ann Warren has captured the fragile, though ever gracious Cinderella in a profound and moving way. As a child, my heart broke, as I witnessed the misdeeds done to poor Cinderella. New versions of the same tale lack the touching emotion that this version so magically holds. When Stuart Damon hits the scene as the Prince, little girls everywhere suddenly believed that dreams really do come true! Behold, wee ones, for here is the kind, generous, and ever-so-handsome Prince! The characters were not animated, they were not "glammed up"; the choreography was simple, the costumes tasteful, not showy. The actors told the story themselves - and they did so with an eloquent passion that is unforgettable. It was magic then, and I cannot wait for my daughters to see this film - of a tale that so captured my attention at their age.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Wooden!
Review: I saw a regional theater production of Cinderella, then bought the VHS to relive the great show, and was very disappointed. Reading the other reviews, and realizing how well-known this 1964 version is, I realize I must be in the minority, but I really do not think it is a good production. I read somewhere that though the original tapes for the 1957 Julie Andrews version were lost, some sort of version does exist. I wonder if it will ever be released. I have that CD, and recommend it highly.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Two Thumbs up!
Review: This is such a classic movie. The music and actors are tremendous. This is a movie that is a must for every family or Cinderella lover.
