Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella [DVD] [1965] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] [2014]

At last, a Region 2 version of this musical. And to me, the best version ever. Ginger Rogers has top billing but is merely a cameo role, yet she's an attractive, pleasant character and worth a watch. No revolting snorting from one of the stepsisters like in the other two versions I've seen... these two are merely a bit stupid and spiteful. Lesley Ann Warren is a bit soppy but looks a million dollars and has a decent singing voice, as does Stuart Damon. All the characters do well in their roles... and it's worth every penny to me for the glorious 'Stepsisters' Lament'.

A different take on a fairy tale classic. I don't recall this being shown on television in the UK so it nice to see this, especially the stellar cast. I didn't care to much for some of the songs even though I know that Julie Andrews starred on the stage version. Worth a look. The kids will love it.

loved it very much

I wasn't expecting too much because this was a stage version after all but it was pretty awful.I didn't mind the sets, which were so obvious, and I absolutely loved the horses but I've seen better in my old school plays. The acting was too much, too prim and neat - almost childish. They should have just roughed it up a bit and it would have made a big difference.Now to the worst bit...oh my god those song, I though Rogers and Hamerstein were better than tat, It's like they dashed the lyrics off, for all of them, on a napking during lunch. There was just so little effort in it...how anyone directing this could have been happy with the finished result is beyond me..it was dreadful.

enjoyable

I saw this production on television some 35 years ago and I made a recording on VHS.I remember that I liked it a lot. Watching it now, its still enjoyable.

Great product. Great customer service.

This is good
