   Summary: Indulge in this!
Ever After - A Cinderella Story is a sweet period piece starring Drew Barrymore. I saw this movie in the theatre when it was released in 1998 and I loved every minute of it. Barrymore brings warmth and sensitivity to the role and Anjelica Huston is just plain nasty as her wicked stepmother (just how I like a villian to be played). This Cinderella Story has a little bit of a twist, I highly recommend purchasing this gorgeous chick flick, enjoy!

   Summary: Wonderful Customer Service!
One of the first things this company did was send me a personal e-mail thanking me for my purchase and giving me the UPS tracking number for my item. The book come promptly and securely. I would look to them to buy more books.

   Summary: tiny problem
It's a bit hard to classify this movie: it's basically a big-budget, dramatic retelling of the Cinderella story - minus the fairy godmothers or any supernatural element - aimed at young girls who fantasize about being princesses.

There are many aspects of the film that are well-done, but the major problem with it is the lead actress, Drew Barrymore. It's not that she can't act or doesn't look the part; it's her private life, the lurid details of which are now public knowledge (e.g., in rehab by age 13!).

That being the case, it's virtually impossible to take her seriously as an innocent princess. In fact, it's hard to sit through this movie and think of anything other than the irony -- even preposterousness -- of what you're watching. Perhaps, the filmmakers reasoned, the silliness of this will be lost on the moppet audience to which the movie is geared.

The chief merit of the film, I submit, is Anjelica Houston's chilling and utterly convincing performance as the evil step-mother. The problem there, however, is that it's so well-done that the movie seems to depress you more than it uplifts you, which it does try to do at the end, when everything of course turns out all right.

A net bummer, in other words.

   Summary: Entertainment It's Not
This movie is not even close to the original Cinderella. Being rife with with feminism, Utopianism, class struggle and even some situational ethics, I felt that I was being given a political lecture rather than being entertained. Cinderella, in this version, rescued the prince and herself, certainly a departure from the origninal story. The prince was uncertain if he wanted to marry Cinderella because of her class. The gypsy-robbers were portrayed as being honorable while the prince apologized for his lack of honor.
The scenery was pretty at times, but overall it looked low-budget, especially the scenes from the ball.
The characters were miscast and boring except for Angelica Huston who played the role of the stepmother well. I don't know how this movie got 5 stars as it has virtually no redeeming features.
