Amazon.com: A guilty, guilty pleasure, perhaps not one a left-wing feminist should be admitting to in public. Female boomers should recall yearly TV reruns of this Rodgers and Hammerstein production, featuring such delights as "Impossible" and "Do I Love You Because You're Beautiful?" It may appear a bit stark to younger viewers, but part of the charm of this 1964 network TV special, a remake of the live 1957 telecast originally built around Julie Andrews, is its utter simplicity. An extremely young Lesley Ann Warren and Stuart Damon (of General Hospital fame) are joined by Ginger Rogers, Walter Pidgeon, and Celeste Holm. Warren is all sweetness and innocence without a hint of saccharine artificiality, while Damon is a clear-eyed romantic. This very handsome love story is a bit of an oddity, but worth owning just for the memorable score. --Rochelle O'Gorman
The magic of Cinderella endures Rodgers & Hammerstein have created a memorable, most enjoyable, version of the classic story Cinderella. The sets are simplistic, but beautiful, and allow the viewer to focus on the characters and the music. Each character is perfectly cast to showcase their musicality, and humor. The cast are all well-known actors, some in their debut performances. Originally produced some 43 years ago, this is still a captivating, magically enjoyable musical movie.
Cinderella Just the Movie that was on TV when I was a kid! Was so glad to see it again! Great story!
I Love This DVD I loved watching this version when I was growing up and it is really difficult to find. Now my granddaughter watches it with me.
Truly Enjoyable This is a movie that I remembered watching as a child with my sisters. Watching it with my grandaughter brought back many enjoyable memories. She enjoyed it as well. It is a great family film.
One of my Favorites As a young girl, this was a very special show and I love reliving those fond memories. This DVD brought me back over 40 years. I bought the CD as well, so I can sing along in my car!
