Cinderella (1950)

Share this quote on facebook [singing] A dream is a wish your heart makes
When you're fast asleep.
In dreams you will lose your heartaches.
Whatever you wish for, you keep.
Have faith in your dreams, and someday
Your rainbow will come smiling through.
No matter how your heart is grieving,
If you keep on believing,
The dreams that you wish will come true.

Male chorus: Cinderella, you're as lovely as your name
Cinderella, you're a sunset in a frame
Female chorus: Though you're dressed in rags, you wear an air of queenly grace
Anyone can see a throne would be your proper place
Male Chorus: Cinderella, if you give your heart a chance
It will lead you to the kingdom of romance
There you'll see your dreams unfold
Cinderella, Cinderella, in the sweetest story ever told
[The Song's main title theme]

Narrator: Once upon a time in a faraway land, there was a tiny kingdom, peaceful, prosperous, and rich in romance and tradition. Here in a stately chateau, there lived a widowed gentleman and his little daughter, Cinderella. Although he was a kind and devoted father, and gave his beloved child every luxury and comfort, still he felt she needed a mother's care. And so he married again, choosing for his second wife a woman of good family with two daughters just Cinderella's age, by name Anastasia and Drizella. It was upon the untimely death of this good man, however, that the stepmother's true nature was revealed. Cold, cruel, and bitterly jealous of Cinderella's charm and beauty, she was grimly determined to forward the interests of her own two awkward daughters. Thus, as time went by, the chateau fell into disrepair, for the family fortunes were squandered upon the vain and selfish stepsisters, while Cinderella was abused, humiliated, and finally forced to become a servant in her own house. And yet, through it all, Cinderella remained ever gentle and kind, for with each dawn she found new hope that someday, her dreams of happiness would come true.

Lady Tremaine: Hold your tongue! Now, it seems we have time on our hands.
Cinderella: But I was only trying to—
Lady Tremaine: Silence! Time for vicious practical jokes. Perhaps we can put it to better use. Now let me see... There's the large carpet in the main hall; clean it! And the windows, upstairs and down; wash them! Oh yes, and the tapestries and the draperies—
Cinderella: But I just finished—
Lady Tremaine: Do them again! And don't forget the garden. Then scrub the terrace, sweep the halls and the stairs, clean the chimneys. And of course there's the mending and the sewing and the laundry... Oh yes, and one more thing. See that Lucifer gets his bath.

Drizella: Why, that's us!
Anastasia: And I'm so eligible!
Cinderella: Why, that means I can go too!
Drizella: Hah! Her, dancing with the Prince. [laughing]
Anastasia: [mocking Cinderella] I'd be honored, Your Highness. [holds out her flute] Would you mind holding my broom? [both waltz in place, laughing derisively]
Cinderella: Well, why not? After all I'm still a member of the family, and it said, "by royal command, every eligible maiden is to attend."
Lady Tremaine: Well, I see no reason why you can't go... if you get all your work done.
Cinderella: Oh, I will. I promise.
Lady Tremaine: And, if you can find something suitable to wear.
Cinderella: I'm sure I can. Oh, thank you, Stepmother.
[she exits]
Drizella: Mother! Do you realize what you just said?
Lady Tremaine: Of course. I said, if.
Drizella: [realizing] Oh! If.
[they all laugh]

Fairy Godmother: Oh, now, just a minute. You must understand, my dear: On the stroke of twelve, the spell will be broken, and everything will be as it was before.
Cinderella: Oh, I understand, but... it's more than I ever hoped for.
Fairy Godmother: Bless you, my child. I... [realizing] Goodness me! It's getting late. Hurry up, dear. The ball can't wait. Have a good time. Dance, be gay. Now, off you go. You're on your way.

Anastasia: There. I knew it was my slipper. Exactly my size. I always wear the same size. As soon as I saw it, I said...
[the Herald lifts up her foot, revealing that the shoe just barely covers one toe]
Anastasia: [gasps] Well, it-it may be a trifle snug today. You know how it is, dancing all night. I can't understand why.
[the Herald shrugs his shoulders, decides to roll up his sleeves, leaps onto her leg and starts to hammer the shoe on]
Anastasia: [trying to make him come down] It's always fit perfectly before. I don't think you're half trying. Mother, can you...
Lady Tremaine: [hushing her daughter up because the Grand Duke is sleeping] Shhh. Quiet, my dear. We mustn't disturb his Grace. [to the Herald] Young man, are you sure you're trying it on the right foot?
Anastasia: Oh, it's the right foot, but it must have shrunk or something. A glass shoe isn't always reliable.

Lady Tremaine: It fits!
Grand Duke: It fits?

Lady Tremaine: There's no one else, your Grace.
Grand Duke: Quite so. Good day, good day.
[He starts to leave, but Cinderella suddenly appears at the top of the stairs.]
Cinderella: Your Grace! Your Grace! Please, wait. May I try it on?
Lady Tremaine: Oh. Pay no attention to her.
Anastasia: It's only Cinderella.
Drizella: Our scullery maid.
Anastasia: From the kitchen.
Lady Tremaine: Absolutely ridiculous.
Anastasia: She's out of her mind.
Lady Tremaine: Yes, just an imaginative child!
Grand Duke: Madame, my orders were every maiden!

[The slipper has just shattered thanks to Lady Tremaine tripping the Herald.]
Grand Duke: Oh, no! Oh, no, no, no, no. Oh, this is terrible. [gasps] The King! What will he say? [clutches his throat] What will he do?!
Cinderella: But, perhaps, if it would help—
Grand Duke: No, no, nothing can help now. Nothing!
Cinderella: [pulls the other slipper out of her pocket, much to Lady Tremaine’s appalled horror] But, you see, I have the other slipper.
[Overjoyed, he kisses it several times before placing it on her foot.]
