Draped in the lavish scenery of 17th century France, Drew Barrymore stars in this innovative re-telling of a much-loved fairytale. Keen to focus on a Cinderella with a post-feminist twist, director Andy Tennant dispenses with the familiar supernatural exploits here - that means no fairy godmother - and instead empowers our heroine with forthright independence and noble ambition. With a prince bowled over by her charitable charm, the village looks set to receive a loving royal couple and a grand library to boot. A pair of meddling step-sisters ensure a climatic tussle to sabotage a particularly sentimental happy ever after.
Cinderella's cruel stepmother stops her from going to the ball, however, she has a Fairy Godmother who uses her magic to ensure she gets to the ball.
