Cinderella is a 1950 American animated musical fantasy film produced by Walt Disney and originally released by RKO RadioPictures. Based on the fairy tale Cinderella by Charles Perrault, it is the twelfth Disney animated feature film. Directing creditsgo to Clyde Geronimi, Hamilton Luske, and Wilfred Jackson. Songs were written by Mack David, Jerry Livingston, and AlHoffman. Songs in the film include "Cinderella", "A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes", "Sing Sweet Nightingale", "The WorkSong", "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo", and "So This is Love". It features the voices of Ilene Woods, Eleanor Audley, Verna Felton,Rhoda Williams, James MacDonald, Luis van Rooten, Don Barclay, Mike Douglas, and Lucille Bliss.

At the time, Walt Disney Productions had suffered from losing connections to the European film markets due to the outbreakof World War II, enduring some box office bombs like Pinocchio, Fantasia, and Bambi, all of which would later become moresuccessful with several re-releases in theaters and on home video. At the time, however, the studio was over $4 million indebt and was on the verge of bankruptcy. Walt Disney and his animators turned back to feature film production in 1948 afterproducing a string of package films with the idea of adapting Charles Perrault's Cendrillon into a motion picture. It is the firstDisney film in which all of Disney's Nine Old Men worked together as directing animators. After two years in production,Cinderella was finally released on February 15, 1950. It became the greatest critical and commercial hit for the studio sinceSnow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) and helped reverse the studio's fortunes. It is considered one of the best Americananimated films ever made, as selected by the American Film Institute. It received three Academy Award nominations,including Best Music, Original Song for "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo". Decades later, it was followed by two direct-to-video sequels—Cinderella II: Dreams Come True and Cinderella III: A Twist in Time—and a 2015 live-action remake directed by KennethBranagh.[6]

Plot

Cinderella lives an unhappy life, having lost both parents at a young age and being forced to work as a scullery maid for hercruel stepmother, Lady Tremaine, jealous of Cinderella's beauty, and stepsisters Drizella and Anastasia, in the dilapidatedchâteau they live in. Despite this, Cinderella is a kind and gentle young woman and is friends with mice and birds that live inand around the château. Meanwhile, at the royal palace, the King is frustrated that his son, the Prince, is still unmarried. Heand the Grand Duke organize a ball in an effort to find a suitable wife for the Prince, requesting every eligible maiden attend.Upon receiving notice of the ball, Tremaine agrees to let Cinderella go if she finishes her chores and can find a suitable dressto wear.

Cinderella finds a gown that belongs to her mother and decides to refashion it for the ball, but her step family impedes this bygiving her extra chores. Cinderella's animal friends, including Jaq and Gus, refashion it for her, completing the design with anecklace and sash discarded by Drizella and Anastasia, respectively. When Cinderella comes downstairs wearing the dress,the stepsisters are angered when they realize Cinderella is wearing their accessories and angrily tear the dress to shredsbefore leaving for the ball with their mother. A heartbroken Cinderella runs out into the garden in tears, where her FairyGodmother appears before her. Insisting that Cinderella go to the ball, the Fairy Godmother magically transforms a pumpkininto a carriage, the mice into horses, Cinderella's horse, Major, into a coachman, and dog, Bruno, into a footman, beforeturning Cinderella's ruined dress into a white ball gown and her shoes into glass slippers. As Cinderella leaves for the ball, theFairy Godmother warns her the spell will break at the stroke of midnight.

At the ball, the Prince rejects every girl until he sees Cinderella, who agrees to dance with him. The two fall in love and go outfor a stroll together in the castle gardens. As they are about to kiss, Cinderella hears the clock start to chime midnight andflees. As she leaves the castle, one of her slippers falls off. The palace guards give chase as Cinderella flees in the coachbefore the spell breaks on the last stroke of midnight. Cinderella, her pets, and the mice hide in a wooded area as the guardspass.

The Grand Duke informs the King that Cinderella, who remains anonymous, has escaped, and that the Prince wishes to marryher. The lost glass slipper is the only piece of evidence. The King issues a royal proclamation ordering every maiden in thekingdom to try on the slipper for size in an effort to find the girl. After this news reaches Cinderella's household, Tremaine

realizes her stepdaughter is that girl when hearing her humming the waltz played at the ball and locks her in her atticbedroom. Later, the Duke arrives at the château, and Jaq and Gus steal the key from Tremaine's dress pocket and take it upto the attic as Anastasia and Drizella unsuccessfully try on the slipper. Tremaine's cat Lucifer ambushes the mice, but Brunochases him out of the house, allowing the mice to free Cinderella. As the Duke is about to leave, Cinderella appears and asksto try on the slipper. Knowing it will fit, Lady Tremaine trips the footman as he brings the Duke the slipper, causing it to shatteron the floor. Much to her horror, Cinderella presents the Duke with the other slipper, which fits perfectly. The film ends with anow-married Prince and Cinderella at their wedding, sharing a kiss as they leave.

Production

Story development

In 1922, Walt Disney produced a Laugh-O-Gram cartoon based on "Cinderella", and he had been interested in producing asecond version in December 1933 as a Silly Symphony short. Burt Gillett was attached as the director while Frank Churchillwas assigned as the composer. A story outline included "white mice and birds" as Cinderella's playmates. To expand thestory, storyboard artists suggested visual gags, some of which ended up in the final film.[7] However, the story proved to betoo complicated to be condensed into a short so it was suggested as a possible animated feature film as early as 1938 startingwith a fourteen-page outline written by Al Perkins.[8][9] Two years later, a second treatment was written by Dana Cofy andBianca Majoli, in which Cinderella's stepmother was named Florimel de la Pochel; her stepsisters as Wanda and Javotte; herpet mouse Dusty and pet turtle, Clarissa; the stepsisters' cat Bon Bob; the Prince's aide Spink, and the stepsisters' dancinginstructor Monsieur Carnewal. This version stuck closely to the original fairy tale until Cinderella arrives home late from thesecond ball. Her stepfamily then imprison Cinderella in a dungeon cellar. When Spink and his troops arrive at the la Pochelresidence, Dusty takes the slipper and leads them to free Cinderella.[10]

By September 1943, Disney assigned Dick Huemer and Joe Grant to begin work on Cinderella as story supervisors and givena preliminary budget of $1 million.[11] However, by 1945, their preliminary story work was halted.[12] During the writing stagesof Song of the South, Dalton S. Reymond and Maurice Rapf entered into a personal dispute, in which Raft was re-assigned towrite for Cinderella.[13] In his version, Cinderella was written to be a less passive character than Snow White, and morerebellious against her stepfamily. Raft explained, "My thinking was you can't have somebody who comes in and changeseverything for you. You can't be delivered it on a platter. You've got to earn it. So in my version, the Fairy Godmother said, 'It'sokay till midnight but from then in it's up to you.' I made her earn it, and what she had to do achieve it was to rebel against herstepmother and stepsisters, to stop being a slave in her own home. So I had a scene where they're ordering her around andshe throws the stuff back at them. She revolts, so they lock her up in the attic. I don't think anyone took (my idea) veryseriously."[14]

In spring 1946, Walt held three story meetings, and subsequently received a treatment from Ted Sears, Homer Brightman,and Harry Reeves dated on March 24, 1947. In the treatment, the Prince was introduced earlier in the story reminiscent ofSnow White and the Seven Dwarfs,[15] and there was a hint of the cat-and-mouse conflict. By May 1947, the first rough phaseof storyboarding was in the process, and an inventory report that same month suggested a different approach with the story"largely through the animals in the barnyard and their observations of Cinderella's day-to-day activities."[15]

Following the theatrical release of Fun and Fancy Free, Walt Disney Productions' bank debt declined from $4.2 million to $3million.[16] Around this time, Walt acknowledged the need for sound economic policies, but emphasized to the loaners thatslashing production would be suicidal. In order to restore the studio to full financial health, he expressed his desire to return toproducing full-length animated films. By then, three animated projects—Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, and Peter Pan—werein development. Walt felt the characters in Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan were too cold while Cinderella containedelements similar to Snow White and decided to greenlit the project. Selecting his top-tier animation talent, Ben Sharpsteenwas assigned as supervising producer while Hamilton Luske, Wilfred Jackson, and Clyde Geronimi became the sequencedirectors.[17] Nevertheless, production on Alice resumed so that both animation crews would effectively compete against eachother to see which film would finish first.[18]

By early 1948, Cinderella had progressed further than Alice in Wonderland, and was fast-tracked to become the first full-length animated film since Bambi.[15] During a story meeting on January 15, 1948, the cat-and-mouse sequences began togrow into an important element in the film so much that Disney placed veteran story artist Bill Peet in charge of the cat-and-mouse segments.[19]

By the late 1940s, Disney's involvement during production had shrunken noticeably. As Walt was occupied with trains and thefilming of Treasure Island, the directors were left to exercise their own judgment more on details.[20] Although Walt no longerheld daily story meetings, the three directors still communicated with him by mailing him memoranda, scripts, Photostats ofstoryboards, and acetates of soundtrack recordings while he was in England for two and a half months during the summer of1949. When Walt did not respond, work resumed and then had to be undone when he did.[21] In one instance when Waltreturned to the studio on August 29, he reviewed Luske's animation sequences and ordered numerous minor changes, as wellas a significant reworking of the film's climax. Production was finished by October 13, 1949.[22]

Casting

Mack David and Jerry Livingston had asked Ilene Woods to sing on several demo recordings of the songs. They hadpreviously known her from her eponymous radio show "The Ilene Woods Show" which was broadcast on ABC. The showfeatured fifteen minutes of music, and David and Livingston had their music presented.[23] Two days later, Woods received atelephone call from Disney, with whom she immediately scheduled an interview. Woods recalled in an interview with the LosAngeles Times, "We met and talked for awhile, and he said, 'How would you like to be Cinderella?'," to which she agreed.[24]

For the role of Lucifer, a studio representative asked June Foray if she could provide the voice of a cat. "Well, I could doanything," recalled Foray, "So he hired me as Lucifer the cat in Cinderella".[25]

Animation

Live-action reference

Starting in spring 1948, actors were filmed on large soundstages mouthing to a playback of the dialogue soundtrack.[26]

Disney had previously used live-action reference on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Pinocchio, and Fantasia, but as partof an effort to keep the production cost down, the footage was used to check the plot, timing, and movement of the charactersbefore animating it.[27] The footage was then edited frame-by-frame onto large Photoshat sheets to duplicate, in which theanimators found too restrictive as they were not allowed to imagine anything that the live actors did not present since that kindof experimentation might necessitate changes and cost more money. Additionally, the animators were instructed to draw froma certain directorial perspective to avoid difficult shots and angles.[28] Frank Thomas explained, "Anytime you'd think ofanother way of staging the scene, they'd say: 'We can't get the camera up there'! Well, you could get the animation cameraup there! So you had to go with what worked well in live action."[27]

Walt Disney hired actress Helene Stanley to perform the live-action reference for Cinderella, that she before artists begansketching, playing the role of Cinderella in a particular scene,[29] and artists to draw animated frames based on themovements of the actress.[30] She later did the same kind of work for the characters of Princess Aurora in Sleeping Beautyand Anita Radcliff in One Hundred and One Dalmatians.[30] Animators modeled Prince Charming on actor Jeffrey Stone, whoalso provided some additional voices for the film.[31] Mary Alice O'Connor served as the live-action reference for the FairyGodmother.[32]

Character animation

By 1950, the Animation Board—which had been established as early as 1940 to help with the management of the animation

department—had settled down to nine supervising animators. Although they were still in their thirties, they were jokinglyreferred by Walt Disney as the "Nine Old Men" after President Franklin D. Roosevelt's denigration of the SupremeCourt.[33][34] Including Norman Ferguson, the principal animators included Les Clark, Marc Davis, Ollie Johnston, Milt Kahl,Ward Kimball, Eric Larson, John Lounsbery, Frank Thomas, and Wolfgang Reitherman.[35]

Larson was the first to animate the title character whom he envisioned as a sixteen-year-old with braids and a pug nose. MarcDavis later animated Cinderella, in which Larson observed as "more the exotic dame" with a long swanlike neck. Because thefinal character design was not set, assistant animators were responsible for minimizing the differences.[20] When Walt wasasked what was his favorite piece of animation, he answered, "I guess it would have to be where Cinderella gets her ballroomgown", which was animated by Davis.[36]

Milt Kahl was the directing animator of the Fairy Godmother, the King, and the Grand Duke.[37] Originally, Walt intended forthe Fairy Godmother to be a tall, regal character as he viewed fairies as tall, motherly figures (as seen in the Blue Fairy inPinocchio), but Milt Kahl disagreed the characterization. Following the casting of Verna Felton, Kahl managed to convinceWalt on his undignified concept of the Fairy Godmother.[38]

Unlike the human characters, the animal characters were animated without live-action reference.[39] During production, noneof Kimball's designs for Lucifer had pleased Disney. After visiting Kimball's steam train at his home, Walt saw his calico catand remarked, "Hey—there's your model for Lucifer".[35] Reitherman animated the sequence in which Jaq and Guslaboriously drag the key up the flight of stairs to Cinderella.[40]

Music

In 1946, story artist and part-time lyricist Larry Morey joined studio music director Charles Walcott to compose the songs.Cinderella would sing three songs: "Sing a Little, Dream a Little" while overloaded with work, "The Mouse Song" as shedressed the mice, and "The Dress My Mother Wore" as she fantasizes about her mother's old wedding dress. In an effort torecycle an unused fantasy sequence from Snow White, the song, "Dancing on a Cloud" was used as Cinderella and thePrince waltz during the ball. After the ball, she would sing "I Lost My Heart at the Ball" and the Prince would sing "The FaceThat I See in the Night." However, none of their songs were used.[14]

Two years later, Walt turned to Tin Pan Alley songwriters Mack David, Al Hoffman, and Jerry Livingston to compose thesongs.[41] The trio had previously wrote the song "Chi-Baba, Chi-Baba" that Walt heard the radio and decided would work wellwith the Fairy Godmother sequence. They finished the score in March 1949.[42]

Oliver Wallace composed the score, but only after the animation was ready for inking, which was incidentally similar to scoringa live-action film. This was a drastic change from the earlier Disney animated features in which the music and action wascarefully synchronized in a process known as mickeymousing.[20]

Release

The film was originally released in theaters on February 15, 1950, in Boston, Massachusetts.[3] Cinderella was re-released in1957, 1965, 1973, 1981, and 1987.[49] Cinderella also played a limited engagement in select Cinemark Theatres fromFebruary 16–18, 2013.[50]

Critical reaction

The film became a critical success garnering the best reception for a Disney animated film since Dumbo. In a personal letter toWalt Disney, director Michael Curtiz hailed the film as the "masterpiece of all pictures you have done." Producer Hal Wallisdeclared, "If this is not your best, it is very close to the top."[51] Mae Tinee, reviewing for The Chicago Tribune, remarked "Thefilm not only is handsome, with imaginative art and glowing colors to bedeck the old fairy tale, but it also is told in a gentlefashion, without the lurid villains which sometimes give little lots nightmares. It is enhanced by the sudden, piquant touches ofhumor and the music which appeal to old and young."[52] However, the characterization of Cinderella received a mixedreception. Bosley Crowther of The New York Times wrote, "The beautiful Cinderella has a voluptuous face and form—not tomention an eager disposition—to compare with Al Capp's Daisy Mae." However, criticizing her role and personality, Crowtheropined, "As a consequence, the situation in which they are mutually involved have the constraint and immobility of panel-expressed episodes. When Mr. Disney tries to make them behave like human beings, they're banal."[53] Similarly, Varietyclaimed the film found "more success in projecting the lower animals than in its central character, Cinderella, who is on thecolorless, doll-faced side, as is the Prince Charming."[54]

Contemporary reviews have remained positive. Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times awarded the film three out of fourstars.[55] The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported the film received an approval rating of 97% based on 30reviews with an average score of 7.7/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "The rich colors, sweet songs, adorable mice

and endearing (if suffering) heroine make Cinderella a nostalgically lovely charmer".[56]

Box office

The film was Disney's greatest box office success since Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs earning $8 million in grossrentals.[22] By the end of its original run, it was the sixth highest grossing film in 1950 earning $4.15 million in distributor rentals(the distributor's share of the box office gross).[57] It was the fifth most popular movie at the British box office in 1951.[58]

The success of Cinderella allowed Disney to carry on producing films throughout the 1950s by which the profits from the film'srelease, with the additional profits from record sales, music publishing, publications and other merchandise gave Disney thecash flow to finance a slate of productions (animated and live action), establish his own distribution company, enter televisionproduction, and begin building Disneyland during the decade.[59]

Cinderella has had a lifetime gross of $315 million across its original release and several reissues.[60] Adjusted for inflation,and incorporating subsequent releases, the film has had a lifetime gross of $536,079,700.[61]

Home media

It was released on VHS and Laserdisc in 1988 as part of the Walt Disney Classics collection. The release had a promotionwith a free lithograph reproduction for those who pre-ordered the video before its release date. Disney had initially shipped 4.3million VHS copies to retailers, but due to strong consumer demand, more than seven million copies were shipped.[62] At thetime of its initial home video release, it was the best-selling VHS title until it was overtaken by E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.[63] Therelease was placed into moratorium on April 30, 1989 with seven million VHS copies sold.[64][65]

In October 1995, the film was released under the Walt Disney Masterpiece Collection video issue. Disney shipped more than15 million copies of which 8 million were sold in the first month.[66] Disney then restored and remastered the movie for itsOctober 4, 2005, release as the sixth installment of the Walt Disney Platinum Editions series. According to Studio Briefing,Disney sold 3.2 million copies in its first week and earned over $64 million in sales.[67] The Platinum Edition DVD of theoriginal movie along with its sequels went on moratorium on January 31, 2008. In the United Kingdom and Ireland, a "RoyalEdition" of Cinderella was released on DVD on April 4, 2011, to celebrate the UK Royal Wedding of Prince William andCatherine Middleton. This release had a unique limited edition number on every slipcase and an exclusive art card.[68]

Disney released a Diamond Edition on October 2, 2012, in a 3-disc Blu-ray/DVD/Digital Copy Combo, a 2-disc Blu-ray/DVDcombo and in a 6-disc "Jewelry Box Set" that includes the first film alongside its two sequels. A 1-disc DVD edition wasreleased on November 20, 2012.[69] The Diamond Edition release went back into the Disney Vault on January 31, 2017.
