Disney Cinderella DVD
Walt Disney's feature length animated movie Cinderella was
originally released in 1950.
Ilene Woods provided the voice of Cinderella and Eleanor Audley
voiced the wicked stepmother. And by the way, Eleanor Audley can
now be heard as the voice of Madam Leota in the Haunted
Mansion ride at Disneyland and Disney world.
The year Cinderella was released it received an Oscar nomination
for best musical score including the catchy song "Bibbidi
Bobbidi Boo."
The story of Cinderella holds up very well, even by today's
standards.
Cinderella lives under the constant cruelty of her unsympathetic
stepmother who treats her like a slave. And to make matters
worse, Cinderella is constantly teased and tormented by her two
stepsisters.
But through it all, Cinderella maintains a kind and loving heart
which she generously shares with the local birds and animals
while she dreams of a better life for herself.
Then with the magical help of her fairy Godmother, Cinderella's
life begins to change dramatically.
With a wave of her magic wand, the fairy godmother
transforms Cinderella into a vision of beauty and sends her on
her way to the Royal Ball where she meets and falls in love with
the handsome Prince.
But as the clock strikes midnight, Cinderella seems condemned to
a life as a slave to her cruel stepmother.
Then, just when all seems lost, with the help of a very special
glass slipper, Cinderella meets the Prince once again.
The two are married and live happily ever after.
Today, the magic of Cinderella lives on.
The Cinderella castle still stands as a shinning centerpiece at
both Disneyland in California and Disney World in Florida.
And now, Walt Disney's original Cinderella has been released for
the first time ever as a very special edition DVD.
This is a dream come true for collectors. And this special
release gives everyone that grew up with the Cinderella story
the opportunity to rediscover this truly classic movie.
And now our children and grandchildren can discover the magic of
Cinderella for the first time.
Some things never change and thankfully Walt Disney's Cinderella
is one of them.
