For this assignment, I watched Cinderella. I used to go to Disneyland many times when I was small, and one of my favorite princesses was Cinderella. This movie is a live-action movie from Walt Disney production which was in theaters from April 25th, 2015. This movie was originally a fairy tale by Charles Perrault, and Walt Disney production first made the same titled animation film in 1950. The genre of this film is “Romantic fantasy”, and was directed by Kenneth Branagh, who is also an actor. The main character, Cinderella, was played by Lily James. Her delicate body made me want to protect her, and she really looked beautiful with the dress.
The story of this movie is very famous.
Cinderella loses her mother in her early age, but lives happily with her
father. After her father marries another woman, she meets her stepmother and
stepsisters. However, after her father passed away, Cinderella gets bullied by them.
Cinderella did all the chores and gets treated as a maid. She couldn’t even go
to the party at the castle. But a fairy godmother takes Cinderella to the
party.
This film, compared to the original
animation film, depicted the emotions of the characters to the smallest detail.
So, I was drawn into the story so much. This movie was nominated by many
awards, and won several awards of them. For example, it won the “Best costume”
of Capri Hollywood Film Festival Awards, and “Best Fantasy Film” of Saturn
Awards. So, I think many people can enjoy watching this film. I even bought a
Blu-ray disc of this film so that I can watch this as much as I want at home.
