This is the only Cinderella story I've ever seen where the girl and the prince actually have a relationship and get to know each other. Usually, they meet at the ball and are instantly in love. In this version, I actually buy that the couple falls in love. The prince is hugely improved and grows because of her influence.
_Ever After_ is not a fairy tale movie, or a Cinderella adaptation. It's some random historical drama movie with Cinderella elements in it. What fucking Cinderella is this? Sword fighting, punching in the face, lying to the prince. This isn't Cinderella. And look at those rugged, horrid, drab visuals and scenery. It's so visually lame.
@@0deadx21I think you're missing the point of this adaption. It's basically a "what if a fairytale actually happened in history, but over time it became more fantasy-esque and divorced from reality?" Fun fact: there are some fairytales that do surround a real event, like the Pied Piper. This idea is what they are going for with this Cinderella adaption.
@@mish375 Another words this is not the best "Cinderella" adaptation. There's no magic, both literally and figuratively, no beautiful scenery or even music. It's just dumb. This feels like a big budget TV movie than something that should have been in theaters.
When this movie came out, I was a teenager working at a movie theater. We were allowed to go watch a movie and eat some popcorn on breaks. I kept getting my break during the exact same scene in this movie but I went and watched it every single time anyway. Finally got to watch the whole thing on my night off. We were allowed to come in and watch as many movies as we wanted. Other than the bullshit drama that goes on in workplaces, I loved that job.
My school had movie day in 3rd grade, I can’t remember what the “boy” option was but I opted for this one despite not having a clue what it was about (and needing to get parent permission to see it since it’s PG-13 lol) and I ended up loving it. It’s my personal favorite Cinderella story. I love a good period piece and while maybe not to some folks’ taste since it doesn’t have magic and isn’t as colorful, I like how this one feels like it could have happened.
In case you missed it, the two men who were told this story were the Brothers Grimm. In their version of Cinderella the slipper was made of gold, while in other versions it was made of fur or glass. Honestly Margarite got off so easy, if this was the Grimm version she would have lost a toe or a heal then blinded by birds.
This is my favorite Cinderella adaptation. I love Danielle and Henry and how human they both are in their reactions to their scenarios. Though this movie, while I love it, does hit 2 pretty big pet peeves of mine. 1- It's set in France but everyone has English accents, even people who don't have those accents in real life. 2-"My father was an expert swordsman, sir. He taught me well." That sort of came out of nowhere and just seemed like they just threw it in there so she could rescue herself, but there were literally no seeds planted for it. If they were gonna go that route, we should have seen some swordfighting - or at least some training - earlier in the movie. But her father, who supposedly taught her swordfighting, died when she was 8 and it doesn't seem like she's had much time to practice so she'd be rusty as heck if he had taught his 8 year old daughter to sword fight. That said, I've just kinda accepted the head canon that she was bluffing.
Two of the things that made me love Dougray Scott's performance: His little wave to the Gypsys as Danielle carries him away, & his intonation on "To a BELGIAN?!" as if her "engagement" being to a Belgian somehow made it worse. I laugh so hard at those moments every time I watch this.
just tripped on your channel looking to "share" one of my all time go to feel good movies... so glad you liked it the realism is so fun no magic required but they do have a lot of headstrong people that need to learn a few lessons... if you have not watched it yet would love to see you react to Sense and Sensibility
I love this film! This is also one of Drew’s favorite films she ever did. I laugh every time at the Queen’s reaction to the stepsister flipping out 😂 I also really love Jacqueline. Drew will always leave me stunned at the ball. She was absolutely beautiful! 🦋 👑
I actually felt bad for the stepmother a bit in this one, at least at the start. She's already been windowed one, remarried and moved faraway with her children only to be widowed again, that's rough. I mean it doesn't justify her behaviour after that, but still 😅
They give her a few moments of humanity that make her feel complex and real, rather than a simple villain. At the very beginning with her new husband. But mostly the conversation between her and Danielle in the middle. When Danielle asks if she loved her father, you see her hesitate enough to make her downplay feel like a lie. Anjelica Huston does so much with the little tones in her voice.
I’m so happy to come across your reaction for this. This is, hands down, my favourite film version of the Cinderella story. I end up rewatching it every couple of years or so. I love how they so thoroughly rethought how to tell the tale in a way that made sense as a supposed historical source for the tale, having removed the magical elements. And that they enter so fully into the characterizations exploring the motivations/informing circumstances behind each of the principal character’s personality and story arc. Particularly Baroness de Ghent, developing a resentment for Danielle being the one her father thinks of and addresses at his end. And, yes. Angelica Houston is absolutely brilliant in this role, both dramatically and with the infused comedic elements played so expertly through her facial expressions. Thank you for your great reaction. (I’ve liked and subscribed now.)
I think this will always be my favorite Cinderella adaptation. Most of the others are just a little a little too over the top with the stepmother, and the Cinderellas are too sugary. Thank you for sharing your reaction.
Welcome back, man! I hope your trip was fabulous! BTW, we here in the US don't want the mother and daughter either! However, they can send Danielle and the Prince anytime! 😆😆🥰🥰
This is my most-watched Cinderella tale, but the Cinderella (2015) is also quite good. It actually too someone pointing out it's technically a life-action remake for me to clue into it. It's a GOOD one. Especially love the Prince in that one.
Your reaction was delightful!! Suggestion to grow your channel: Many people commenting on other movie reaction channels say they won't watch any "short" reactions. This particular one was a good length, but I see other of your videos are in the about 20 minutes range, which most people don't like because they feel too much of the movie is left out, making for a very choppy, disjointed reaction. Even if you have to cut down on how much you show of a film due to copyright issues, if you can perhaps blur some parts and keep the audio while still offering all your excellent commentary, or use shorter clips but add your own thoughts about the plot, acting, etc., I think your very charming personality will draw more subscribers to your channel!! Good luck!!
Easter Egg: When Danielle climbs down from the tree while Henry squares off with the gypsies, she goes right for the swords. Sort of giving context beforehand when she threatens Whatshisface later in the story. (though that kind of bugs me, she says her father taught her well, but he died when she was eight. Even if he started when she was five, that'd only be three years experience. And I doubt she spent any sort of time practicing with.....ANYONE in the house....and anyway who gives a sword to a five year old? And when did he even have time, since he was gone on sll those trade trips?
@@Floridad25 hhmmm, 🤔 my only thought on that is it was a different time and era? 🤷🏻♂️ Teaching kids how to use a sword was the norm perhaps haha. And maybe she trained with Gustave? 😂
@@mozyflicks That is a point....maybe it was father/daughter bonding time, because I doubt (time and era) he would teach her domestic stuff her mother probably would have...sewing, embroidery, playing an instrument or whatever it was that Italian Renaissance upper middle/lower upper-class women did with their spare time. They had a full staff....at least for a little while. But anyway, who cares, sword fights are awesome and I feel cheated out of seeing her square off with Richard O'Brian
This one, The Slipper and the Rose, the OG Disney animated, as well as it's straight to DVD follow up, Cinderella 3 A Twist in Time, and the Disney live action are probably my top 5 Cinderella movies... and I have watched pretty much every version I have found, from 1940's Russian films, to the modern and various 'Cinderella Story' films.
Thanks, Mozy! 🧚♀ I love this version and what it was bold enough to do. I'm so glad I got to see it on the silver screen. Andy Tennant directed it. 🔸 CINDERELLA is actually my favorite of all the fairytales. I'm glad you mentioned Disney's versions. The rendition from 1950 is really solid and absolutely should be watched, even if you don't react to it. Disney's live-action remake in 2015 was good and brought some new elements to it; but I don't think it compares to its predecessor. 🔸 An unusual pick that I love, even though it got low ratings (review sites barraged by LGBTQ2IA+ haters) is writer/director Kay Cannon's jukebox musical CINDERELLA (2021). The primary players are Camila Cabello, Billy Porter and Nicholas Galitzine. I think you'd appreciate it, too. 🔸 As for the lead, Drew Barrymore, there are so many good movies with her. When you're in the mood for a quirky romantic comedy, try THE WEDDING SINGER (1998). 🔸 The wicked stepmother, as you noted, is embodied by the incomparable Anjelica Huston. Make sure you see her in THE GRIFTERS (1990).
extra to last post. Just heard the Cinderlla ball gown properly known as the Just breathe dress was sold at a private auction which is really sad. it had been displayed multiple times (still looks good to this day) photo documentation of this dress it even had a special corset for a nice shape as well as a mechanism to insert the wings. it was heart breaking to hear that it was sold after so long. Hopefully the new owner of the gown will loan it for future viewing shows otherwise it's just going to probably be boxed somewhere for private eyes.
This film has marvelous history although some of the time-frames maybe have been a little itch as well as costume era it's still a great film and I love it. especially Anjelica playing a b*tch and looking great doing it. It saved Drew Barrymore's image it did something but Here's a fun Historical fun fact. So they wanted to make this a realistic this could of happened yet still fiction fantasy film. The brothers grim who met with Danielle's great great granddaughter actually happened somewhat. So it's never mentioned who the old queen is well from researching the old woman who has the glass slipper now is Marie Antoinette's daughter, Marie theresa! least when I did my research it was a perfect match.and Marie would of been an older woman around the time Griim brothers tales of cinderella popped if Im remembering my notes lol! I am so glad you loved the film If you're looking for another like this. There's another film Called "Snow white: A tale of Terror" from 1997 and Segourney Weaver from Alien is the Evil Queen in this one.
This is my favorite Cinderella story!! I love it so much! But I always wondered why everyone speaks with a British accent, when the story takes place in FRANCE! Very odd. 😊
This isn't a fairy tale movie. It's dumb, and they had to turn the Cinderella character into a fucking liar just to get her to spend time with the prince.
Yeah, cause she was totally honest about who she was in the fairytale. Especially since they spent all of three minutes together not speaking. 😒 Well, little child, you enjoy your simple unrealistic fairytale. The rest of us will enjoy this realistic take.
@@playfulpanthress The 2015 movie fixed all of that. It's a tall order for a Cinderella movie made in the mid-20th century to not be lazy. The average live-action or animated Cinderella adaptation is treated like a joke, filled with pointlessness and nonsense just to pad the runtime. Good luck describing anything specific - what the scenery looks like, what the characters' appearance, personality, dialogue and outfits are, or what the plot is scene after scene. I remember everything about the 2015 movie. It really makes you see other Cinderella movies in a new light. _Ever After_ is a rando movie with Cinderella elements in it. It doesn't count as a genuine adaptation. There's a difference between "based on" and "inspired by". It's no more of a Cinderella adaptation than the "A Cinderella Story" movies.
I gotta say, this is now one of my favourite Angelica Huston flicks.😍
Just realized after all these years the joke “divorce something they do in England” was about Henry VIII and anne boleyn, so funny
Nice one ✨
This is the only Cinderella story I've ever seen where the girl and the prince actually have a relationship and get to know each other. Usually, they meet at the ball and are instantly in love. In this version, I actually buy that the couple falls in love. The prince is hugely improved and grows because of her influence.
So true! You get to see their love blossum. Love it.
This ist favorite Cinderella story by far. I like that Danielle fights back.
