Cinderella

This Disney classic has been re-worked as a live action movie following in the footsteps of the successful Into The Woods and Snow White and The Huntsman. Unfortunately, there’s no bippity, boppity, boo, but a host of famous faces instead. Lily James plays the main character, with Cate Blanchett taking on the role of the stepmother and Helena Bonham Carter as the fairy godmother. Enjoy!
