Cinderella

Cinderella is a 2015 British romantic fantasy film directed by Kenneth Branagh, from a screenplay written by Chris Weitz. Produced by David Barron, Simon Kinberg and Allison Shearmur for Walt Disney Pictures, the story is inspired by the fairy tale Cinderella by Charles Perrault (with some references from the Brothers Grimm's version of the story). Although not a direct remake, it borrows many elements from Walt Disney's 1950 animated musical film of the same name. The film stars Lily James in the title role as Ella ("Cinderella") with Richard Madden as Prince Charming, Cate Blanchett as Lady Tremaine (the Wicked Stepmother), Sophie McShera as Drisella, Holliday Grainger as Anastasia and Helena Bonham Carter as The Fairy Godmother.
We begin with a loving family, a mother who dies young of a fatal disease and a father who remarries to provide a surrogate mother for Ella. He dies on one of many business voyages, leaving her in the hands of Lady Tremaine (nuanced Cate Blanchett), and that explains why he doesn’t stop her mistreatment of the girl: He never sees it.
Ella, played by Lily James, upholds her promise to her parents to keep her courage high and remain kind. When she meets a hunter in the woods, not knowing he’s the prince, he asks about her living conditions. “They treat me as well as they are able,” she says diplomatically, thinking of her step-family’s emotional problems.
Branagh and Weitz give Lady Tremaine a backstory, too: She deeply loved her first husband, saw him die early, then married Ella’s father for financial security. She’s a bitter, aging woman saddled with stupid, untalented daughters (Holliday Grainger and Sophie McShera), and her second husband never loved her for herself.
The fairy godmother (Helena Bonham Carter), who narrates but appears in just one scene, provides the moral: “Perhaps the greatest risk any of us will ever take (is) to be seen as we really are.” Glass slippers and lizards turned into footmen mean little, unless we’re worth loving after the enchantment evaporates.
The godmother casts her spell on a pumpkin, which rocks and swells so violently it threatens to crush Cinderella before exploding to reveal a golden coach. Its rapid disintegration at the last stroke of midnight, as the coachman turns back into a goose and the horses into mice. Those mice, who chatter to each other unintelligibly work to help Cinderella. But Perrault has the final say, with his message of forgiveness: Cinderella sends her step-family off in the company of the wealthy Grand Duke (Stellan Skarsgärd), who had opposed her marriage on political grounds. Even they may be entitled to happiness in another kingdom; in this “Cinderella,” everyone has a chance at redemption.
