a dream

When I was a girl, I loved reading campus novels, and I vaguely remembered an article where the male protagonist bought a pendant of a pumpkin carriage with the first money he earned and gave it to the girl in his heart. I was very envious at that time and wanted to have my own pumpkin carriage.

It seems to go back even earlier. From the story of Cinderella in fairy tale books, the complex of princes and princesses began to sprout. In the dream, there are pumpkin carriages inlaid with beads and diamonds, crystal slippers, tutu skirts, ancient castles, and the chimes of broken dreams at midnight.

At that time, I was sitting in the movie theater, watching the Cinderella who lived on the top floor, dressed in shabby clothes, being treated harshly by her stepmother, riding a horse in the green forest and meeting the prince, and, in the classic scene after that, the fairy stick was lightly tapped and turned into gorgeous With a tutu skirt and crystal clear shoes, Cinderella rode a golden pumpkin carriage to the outside of the castle, appeared at the court banquet with fragrant temples, and danced with the prince until the clock rang at midnight. A crystal slipper that fell from the panic escape... It almost restored the scene in my dream. This is a fairy tale for adults.

In the two-hour movie, more plots other than fairy tales have been added, the depiction of the stepmother is richer and more angles, and the prince also has concerns about inheriting the throne. After all, this is not a perfect world. We have all grown up watching Cinderella. Big, although there are still dreams in our hearts, the reality keeps us stagnant.

Anyway, thank you Disney for restoring my childhood dream.

    Faithful adaptation, beautiful. However, all I could think of about the swing scene was that Pan Jinlian was making a scene on the grape trellis. I was wrong...

Cinderella quotes

  • Cinderella: Fairy godmother?

    Fairy Godmother: Yes, what?

    Cinderella: My dress. I can't go in this dress. Can you mend it?

    Fairy Godmother: Mend it? No-no, I'll turn it into something new.

    Cinderella: Oh no, please, don't. This was my mother's, and... and I'd like to wear it when I go to the palace. It's almost like - taking her with me.

    Fairy Godmother: I understand. But I don't think she'd mind if I - gee it up a bit? Wouldn't mind a nice blue?

    Cinderella: [whispering] No.

    [Using her magic wand, the Fairy Godmother turns Cinderella's torn pink dress into a dazzling blue ballgown]

    Fairy Godmother: [smiles in satisfaction] There!

    Cinderella: [also smiles] It's beautiful! She'd love it.

  • [the King is dying]

    Prince Charming: Father, don't go.

    King: I must.

    [pause]

    King: You needn't be alone. Take a bride. The Princess Chelina. What if I commanded you to do so?

    Prince Charming: I love and respect you, but I will not. I believe that we need not look outside of our borders for strength or guidance. What we need is right before us, and we need only have courage and be kind to see it.

    King: Just so. You've become your own man. Good. And perhaps, in the little time left to me, I can become the father you deserve. You must not marry for advantage. You must marry for love. Find that girl. Find her. The one they're all talking about. The forgetful one...

    Prince Charming: Who loses her shoes.

    King: [laughs] Loses her shoes...

    [the Prince laughs, and cries too]

    King: Be cheerful, boy.

    Prince Charming: Thank you, Father.

    King: I love you, Kit.

    Prince Charming: I love you, Father.
