Cinderella

Cinderella presents a musical adaptation of the beloved fairy tale, portraying the character in a repetitive, game-like narrative. The film features a distinctive mechanical style, where Cinderella is depicted as moving back and forth, never quite able to fulfill the expectations of the 'Cinderella Game.' This approach creates a sense of alienation, enhanced by the lip-synched dialogue and an out-front score.

The film has a runtime of 28 minutes and was produced by the New York State Council on the Arts and the Jerome Foundation. It was preserved by the Academy Film Archive in 2017, ensuring that this unique take on Cinderella remains accessible to future audiences. Collectors can find this film in various formats including 4K, Blu-ray, DVD, and VHS, making it a versatile addition to any collection focused on animation or unique interpretations of classic stories.
