    Anyone who says Cinderella is sexist is just not very smart. Her goals and dreams were not to go marry a prince. She wasn't looking to get married to a prince and then all her dreams would come true. All she wanted to do was go to the ball. She had no intentions of falling in love with a prince there. All she wanted was one night away from her horrid life. Coincidently, she ended up falling in love with the prince and that ultimately took her away from her old life. There is nothing in that plot that is sexist. Fight me.

      Kimee Faith If falling love means not even vaguely remembering what the person looks like then ya. Totally.

      Its not exactly sexist, its just not empowering to women, she didn't attempt to do anything to get her way. She could've pushed down her stepmother and stepsisters and delivered herself to the ball. Instead, still being a pushover, she stayed home and cried until her godmother fixed all her problems for her. People may say its sexist because she stays this way throughout the movie and proves that the only good attribute to have as a girl is being kind. Well I mean, I guess you could say she's kind to the animals but can that really get you anywhere? They also incorporate the fact that she's a beautiful, skinny, blonde woman; a trait desirable for most. What people draw from this is that in order to land good fortune (like how the prince fell for and married Cinderella), you must be beautiful, blonde and skinny. At the time, Cinderella's looks didn't matter so much to viewers. Its the whole she's-a-kindhearted-princess-who-gets-a-happy-ending charm that makes her so appealing. Disney can make any character look attractive. But in this day and age, people want their daughters and sons to know that you don't have to look like the 1950 cartoon expectation to have a happy ending.

      And remember, she also pointed out to the stepfamily that she was just as eligible to go to the ball after Lady Tremaine read the invitation.

    I'd love to see one of these on Fantasia - it's by far his most experimental of his earliest films - really showed how way back in the day he was focused on making high art and not just entertainment.

    It's weird because as a child I never really felt much connection with Cinderella but as of now she's one of my favourite disney princesses. Plus I always viewed the whole finding her true love in the Prince less of a "The Prince saved her" and much more along the lines of "if you're kind and good you'll attract kind and good people to you, and you'll get good things and what you deserve for being a good person" sort of thing. I always like to think of Disney princesses in terms of their actions and not really the actions of those around them, if that makes sense?

    CInderella will always be my favorite Disney movie. Peter Pan comes a close second though, lol. The story, the music, and the animation is so classic, I never thought it was boring, in m opinion Snow White was slightly more boring! But I used to watch this movie almost every single day throughout my childhood, and it reminds me of when I was a little girl, and memories of just pure happiness when watching it.

  • @ClaireKillsCoffee
    @ClaireKillsCoffee Před 9 lety +30

    Cinderella isn't my favorite Disney princess, but it is very special to my heart. My grandpa gifted the VHS for my bday back in the late 80's, and it was very well loved. I admired Cinderella, simply because she was truly kind, and no matter how badly she was treated, she kept her heart true. It also made me want to talk to animals, which I still practice... daily.

    Every time you post a down to disness video I have to stop what I'm doing and watch it. Like it's almost a problem, pretty soon I'm gonna be pulling over on the freeway or something equally dangerous because I need to take a moment to learn about my favorite characters/company. Anyway! What I mean to say is good job on another magnificent video!

    @LittleOxfordSt Před 8 lety

    What always strikes me about Cinderella is the impact of Mary Blair, she was a concept artist who Walt really admired and loved the work of, and there are scenes where they straight up just ANIMATED HER CONCEPT ART - this is most clearly seen in the famous chase scene, where the Knights become these aggressive black and red shapes - almost like demons - chasing after Cinderella.

    Another great episode of Down to Disness! I think for next month, you should cover either early renaissance (Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, Lion King) or a "failure" from the early 2000's (Dinosaur, Atlantis: The Lost Empire, Home on the Range)

    Despite even Walt Disney himself saying Cinderella was fighting for her dreams, I can't help but remember the Cheetah Girls song where they have the line, "I don’t wanna be like Cinderella, sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar, waiting for somebody to come and set me free..." and I've always liked the song for that, but in a way, I have to say both sides are right. She did fight for her right to go to the ball in the first place, she just wound up getting overwhelmed by chores and then her sisters ruined the dress the critters made her. But then she also just sat down and cried when she could have worked with the animals to remake something. But then of course, the story would be very different from the way it was meant to be. So it makes sense to think either way.
    (but, the fairy god mother did show up pretty quickly, and it was destined in the original story and Disney way to be fixed like that, so she did really try pretty hard to follow her dreams. She just was pretty humble when she had them at first, and then decided to find a way to triumph in the end).
    I really do like that Cheetah Girls song by the way. I like the lyrics/message in it, that sense of equality in love and being strong for yourself.

    Last year for holloween I carved my pumpkin to look like Cinderellas pumpkin carriage. Then I put a Cinderella doll inside with her head poking out the window. I spent a LOT of time making the wheels and finding a horse that was the right size!! It was ANAZING!!!! The only bad part was EVERY SINGLE LITTLE KID SAID " oh look it's Elsa !! Every single kid thought it was Elsa ! There parents had to tell them that it was Cinderella !!

    2:07 Yes, double tracking is familiar to me. On the Beatles' song "I Should Have Known Better" John Lennon double-tracked his voice. And on a later song, "Julia," his voice would be tracked like this:
    Ju------li-a
    Ju------li-a

  • @k1tkat-kate
    @k1tkat-kate Před 8 lety

    I thought Ilene Woods was the demo recording artist for the soundtrack and when Walt heard the demos, he asked her to do the voice for the film?
    I seem to remember that story from somewhere within the Cinderella DVD bonus features....
    I have a framed print of Cinderella's dress transformation that hung over my bed as a kid :-) Definitely one of my favourites.

    Cinderella may not be the first person you think of when you think a stereotypical "strong character" but in my opinion, she's just strong in a different way. She may not be very physically strong, but she is emotionally. Cinderella keeps her kind, gentle nature no matter what; she doesn't allow her difficult situation crush her spirt, and remains joyful and brave despite her hardships. Sure, she may not have a bow and arrow like katniss, or special powers like Elsa, but that's okay. The reason why she is so pure hearted and good is because her mother and father raised her to be that way, and their wise guidance has stuck with her and given her the endurance to press on and still have happiness regardless of the cruelty she faces.

      Well, _The Art of Walt Disney_ by Christopher Finch is the ultimate one, but it's a HUGE and expensive coffee table book, unless you get one of the very condensed and abridged softcover editions.
      If you don't care about a Disney book having a lot of pictures, I highly recommend _Mouse Under Glass: Secrets of Disney Animation & Theme Parks_ by David Koenig.

    Cinderella has always ALWAYS been my favorite princess story and it still is. She wanted to go to the ball, so she went and it was just happenstance that the prince fell in love with her. I think at the time she didn't even realize it was the prince.
    While she is not my favorite Disney princes -coughJasminecough- she is my close second, I don't care if people think it's anti-feminism or sexist. It's a beautiful story and nothing gets that girl down.
