in order to rise from the ashes...

Cinderella

I’m so happy I finally get to post this! 😂 I’ve always wanted to do a side by side comparison of classic Cinderella vs. LA Cinderella during her transformation ☺️🦋✨ I was in such a good mood while working on both of these so it’s hard for me to like one more than the other… but at the same time, 2015 Ella still has my heart 😭❤️

On the stroke of twelve, the spell will be broken, and everything will be as it was before.

“Yeah, but broken isn’t the same as unfixable.”

Throughout the years, a lot of feminist critiques have panned Cinderella, including Emma Watson most recently, claiming that she’s a subservient doormat who lacks agency and waits for a man to save her throughout the course of her film. This criticism is null and void because Cinderella never once mentions wanting to find romantic love or wanting to meet the prince before attending the ball. This theory circulating, that many people have mindlessly reiterated, speculating that Cinderella planned to go to the ball to be saved by the prince is completely unfounded on the grounds that Cinderella ended up leaving the ball at midnight without so much as giving her name and, on screen, she verbally indicates that she had no idea the man she danced with the night prior was the prince at least three times. Ilene Woods, the original voice actress of Cinderella who had a lot of input into the development of the character, stated, “[Cinderella] was kind of spunky. She accepted life as it was and went after things she wanted. I think she was a spirited girl. I don’t think she needed the prince. I think she wanted to go to the ball and that was it at the moment. Then the prince wanted her and vice versa.”
