Summary: Classic Gem of a Story For Every Girl in the World
Review: I saw this beautiful show when I was five years old and was totally entranced with the entire concept of marrying a prince and riding away to his castle on a white charger....nothing has changed! The entire cast was perfect, and although lacking the so-called special effects of today's fantasy films, this program is all the more interesting without them. Nothing is overdone; everything is just right as it is, and watching this brings back all the hopes and dreams I had as a little girl who wanted the very best in life~including marrying a true prince!

Summary: A Classic Cinderella That Will Never Die
Review: "Rodger's and Hammerstein's Cinderella" has always been my favorite version of the classic fairy tale about the mysterious madien who leaves her glass shoe behind at a ball. The music is so compelling that it leaves you breathless. The costumes and scenery are so unique to the story that you will never see anything similar. Lesley Ann Warren delivers the performance of a lifetime as Cinderella, the young maid who desires nothing more than to attend a ball being thrown by the handsome Prince. While she is "In My Own Little Corner," her Fairy Godmother appears to remind her that nothing is "Impossible." At the ball, the Prince falls madly in love with Cinderlla. To think that it seemed like only "Ten Minutes Ago" when she arrived, and now she is dashing the steps. Cinderella accidentally leaves behind her glass slipper. Her memories are all that she has of her "Lovely Night." This classic is one that the entire family is sure to love.

Summary: Childhood memories
Review: This is the version that I can remember watching on CBS when I was a child and I have always loved it. Celeste Holm is a stitch as the fairy godmother. Walter Pidgeon and Ginger Rodgers were the perfect choices for the king amd queen. The entire cast was put together well. I had orginally taped it off the Disney Channel on New Year's Eve one year, but the soundtrack wasn't a good quality. Watching this is like visiting my childhood all over again. I also enjoy watching the 1997 version with Brandy.

Summary: Additional info regarding other reviews
Review: Please forgive me, but the person who complained about it not being in the original black and white is simply remembering watching it on a black and white TV. It was originally recorded on video tape (not film) and was always in color. Also the one who complained about full screen, missing 30% of the picture - this was not a wide screen motion picture. It was made for TV, recorded in the standard 4:3 TV ratio. We ARE seeing the entire picture. Please understand, I am not condemning the others. They simply don't know and there is nothing wrong with not knowing. Thank you for this opportunity.
03-15-02 Update:
I wonder if those who are complaining about the poor picture quality are comparing it to a DVD of a theatrical movie. A motion picture (35MM or whatever) when transferred to DVD gives a pure, crisp, almost perfect picture. Cinderella was recorded on video tape in the mid 60's. Tape images are composed of lines the same as a TV picture. You can't get a perfect image. A DVD has a higher image resolution than tape. But an image with many trace lines transferred to DVD still has many trace lines. Not a fault, but a result. Thanks again.

Summary: My three-year-old LOVES this
Review: Thank heavens this is now on DVD! I bought a used video to show my daughter because THIS is the Cinderella I treasured, not the Disney animated blonde. (I remember watching it on TV and singing along and wanting... that DRESS!) Now my daughter knows every lyric to every song. It's wonderful to see her enjoying this production as much as I did, and still do, even without computer animation or cute animal sidekicks.

Review: What is the point of a full screen version?
We are missing 30% of the picture.
This is equivalent to vandalising a work of art.

Summary: Cinderella DVD disapointing
Review: The quality of this DVD is HORRIBLE!! It is blurry and fuzzy....
watching it on my large wide screen tv shows the flaws even more. I can't believe how poor the quality of this DVD is. Other reviews have said the VHS is better quality than this but I will not waste my money after seeing this version. I love this movie but can't believe they even put a movie on DVD that looks as bad as this one does.

Summary: Roders & Hammerstein's Cinderella
Review: I watched the movie for the first time with my mommy, I'm 8 years old and that was the same age my mommy was when she first saw it. She told me about this movie that she loved so much and could not understand why they never showed this like they do the with Wizard of Oz one of my favorite movies just like my mommy. Always,
Alexis I couldn't wait for this movie to arrive because as my daughter
states it was a movie which I always remembered as a child and was so excited when I found it on Amazon. Thank you for making a fairy tale come back again. Always,
Martita

Summary: Comic-book colorization
Review: is the reason I gave this video a 4 star rating. I wish it had been left in the orginal black and white version that I saw as a kid. The dancers look like jumping M & M's! But the beautiful score and songs are well worth it. Prunella, the stepsister of the creaking knee, later did the tremendous voice of Ursula in "The Little Mermaid."
1/27/02 OK, OK. . . am I the last one to figure out that by putting my TV color setting on the lowest setting, I can make this video black and white? I've changed my rating to 5 stars!
