Disney's Cinderella

Now that we are reading about Cinderella it made me want to watch the classic disney animated version. I used to love watching it as a child and dressing up and pretending I was a princess just like her. After we have been talking about it in class and read multiple versions it has made me see Cinderella in a variety of different perspectives. As I watched the movie tonight it brought me back to when I was younger when I looked at her as this young innocent girl living in this unfortunate life, which is very similar to the Grimm's version of the story. Than I thought about the Catskin versions where they portray Cinderella as a stonger character who holds her own fate. It was really neat going back and watching this movie, after all we have discussed in class.
