Not just the flattery but also a bonafide opinion of the movie at hand... just think of these posts as mere conversation starters - and these comments as an open forum for titles we're so passionate (or dispassionate) about.<br /><br />By the way, I have no problem with CINDERELLA per se; it's breezy and fun and a surefire way to help the Disney studio make loads of money. And while there's nothing wrong with that on the surface, I could have used a bit more thematic heft a la PINOCCHIO or BAMBI.D.W.

I love the work you put into these reviews...Darin,<br /><br />I love the work you put into these reviews. I especially enjoy the pieces of history you uncover and bits of trivia that make going back and viewing these old films a little more interesting.<br /><br />This is one of the few grades that I'll challenge you a little on, however. Take some time to watch the scene where Gus-gus is being chased by Lucifer culminating scaring of one of the step-sisters. There is a good 10 minutes of extremely precise music and absolutely delightful animation. In my opinion, this sequence was probably the best scene of animation produced up to this point in Disney films. <br /><br />My daughter, Abbie, went on a streak of watching Cinderella over 100 times and I never tired of it. Every time I watched it some new clever bit of animation popped out at me. The facial expressions, the movement of the characters, and the subtle beauty of Cinderella herself are just captivating. I challenge your rating a little (I give it an A-) only because you've, perhaps intentionally, put it at the same level as other Disney films that don't hold a candle in my view to Cinderella.<br /><br />Anyway, once again, I love your reviews and this collection of reviews on Disney films are an Internet treasure!Mike Farmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17837382553105675943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8005808875158331076.post-53442196313698460682011-07-07T19:17:27.287-06:002011-07-07T19:17:27.287-06:00I LOVE Cinderella!
