Ep. 6: Ever After: A Cinderella Story (1998)
from Of Slippers and Spindles - Fairy Tale Retellings and Adaptations in Books, Film, and Theatre · host Drew Rothhaar, Cassie Greenlee
"A bird may love a fish, seniore, but where would they live?" Cinderella Month continues as Drew and Cassie discuss the 1998 blockbuster Ever After, starring Drew Barrymore and Anjelica Huston. This week, we discuss how this film brilliantly addresses the plot transgressions of the original fairy tale as it gives its Cinderella new agency, develops a narrative for the prince, breathes life into the stepmother's motivations, and casts the one and only historical Leonardo da Vinci in the role of the fairy godmother.
