Show Notes

First - I am sorry about the short bursts of crackling, my editing skills were no match. They are few and brief.

It’s the beginning of the 1950s and Disney enters strong with Cinderella. This is the first film of the series that legitimately feels like it was made for children. We’ve got animals with various levels of personality and anthropomorphism, helpfully delineated by the addition of tiny clothing. We’ve got an evil step-family with great character design. And most importantly we have a grown woman who is neither a push over nor an entitled monster who just wants to spend a night outside dancing in a pretty dress.
