I love Disney's classic animated movies, so I was thrilled to learn that Cinderella has been released in a new Anniversary Edition! I watched the movie growing up, but hadn't watched it in a long time, so it was a pleasure to revisit it again after so many years. I had forgotten about Cinderella's adorable mouse friends who play a large role in this movie as they make Cinderella's days brighter and help her get ready for the ball, all while avoiding the bad cat, Lucifer. With themes of hope and finding joy in our daily lives, it provides lessons for all of us. It was a pleasure watching Cinderella again, and I look forward to watching the extra features that explore how this classic movie was made.
About Cinderella:
This animated classic centers on kind and hardworking Cinderella, who is ordered around by her cruel stepmother, her awful stepsisters -- even the big clock in the church tower tells her when to start another day of drudgery. But they can't stop her from dreaming, and Cinderella has faith that someday her wishes will come true. When an invitation to the royal ball arrives, Cinderella is sure her time has come -- until her stepsisters, with the encouragement of Lady Tremaine, tear her gown to shreds. Just when Cinderella believes all is lost, her Fairy Godmother appears, and with a wave of her wand and “Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo,” transforms an ordinary pumpkin into a magnificent coach and Cinderella’s rags into a gorgeous gown, then sends her off to the Royal Ball. But Cinderella’s enchanted evening must end when the spell is broken at midnight. It will take the help of her daring animal mice friends and a perfect fit into a glass slipper to create the ultimate fairy-tale ending.
In honor of its upcoming 70th anniversary, the timeless animated classic, Cinderella, waltzes into the highly celebrated Walt Disney Signature Collection and the hearts of a whole new generation. The enchanting tale, which showed us that dreams really do come true -- and inspired countless fans to reenact the Royal Ball and Cinderella’s infamous midnight dash -- has arrived home Digitally in HD and Movies Anywhere, and on Blu-ray™ and DVD. Walt Disney's live-action Cinderella will also be released on 4K for the first time.
The Anniversary Edition of Cinderella offers two all-new extras: Cinderella trivia and fun facts, hosted by Ruth Righi and Ava Kolker from Disney Channel’s Sydney to the Max, and “In Walt’s Words: Enhanced Edition,” a special edition of Cinderella featuring fascinating production details, original storyboards, archival photos, thumbnail sketches and transcripts throughout the feature film. Hours of classic bonus material celebrates the masterful animation, memorable music and long-lasting impact of Cinderella, showcasing Walt Disney’s core group of animators, the art of Disney Legend Mary Blair, the original demo recording of the film’s title song and Cinderella’s iconic glass slipper.
Cinderella is the ninth title to join the Walt Disney Signature Collection, which includes groundbreaking films created or inspired by the imagination and legacy of Walt Disney, featuring timeless stories and characters that have touched generations. The film takes its place alongside Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Beauty and the Beast, Pinocchio, Bambi, The Lion King, Lady and the Tramp, Peter Pan and The Little Mermaid.
