This is my favourite film of all time - I could watch it again and again and again (if only I had it on video!). The musical score is excellent and the scenery and setting capture the moment. There are lots of great performances, particularly Julian Orchard as the Prince's cousin, and the cast list is full of British actors of calibre (plus Richard Chamberlain of course who does a good job of disguising his American accent). This is a really good family movie and has a great twist to the traditional Cinderella story.

I am a long-term fan of this movie. I love musicals anyway, but was totally blown away by 'The Slipper and the Rose'. The score by the Sherman brothers is wonderful, particularly the Oscar-nominated 'He/She Danced with Me' and all of the cast cope well with the singing, despite most not being singers primarily. Gemma Craven's debut is an excellent one, as she manages to play the very well known character of Cinderella uniquely and with skill. The movie is well directed by Bryan Forbes and excellently choreographed (Position and Positioning being a prime example), and this rounds out an overall wonderful cinematic experience. Margaret Lockwood is a joy to watch as the venomous stepmother, but all of the British greats present (Edith Evans, Kenneth More, Michael Hordern, Annette Crosbie et al) add class and gravitas to the proceedings. Well worth the effort!

This is one of my favorite movies of all time. I just wish they'd make a soundtrack so I could listen to the songs in my car. This isn't your average Cinderella story; it's so much better! And this version has added scenes and songs that were omitted in the television and first release versions. I would very much recommend this film if you like fairy tales and humor.

This is definitely underrated. I managed to find this on video and I fell in love with it. It is overlong, and there are discrepancies with the script, but the whole film looks gorgeous, with the lavish costumes and breathtaking scenery. The songs are actually really pleasant, but the staging is a bit long, and the whole film unfortunately lacks magic. The performances were very good though. Gemma Craven was a bit too young, but her sweet voice and doll like face gave Cinderella a certain charm. Richard Chamberlain was perfect as the prince, and there is scene-stealing support from Margaret Lockwood, Kenneth More, Michael Horden and Edith Evans.Don't forget Annette Crosbie's funny performance as the Fairy Godmother.There were some touching moments, and the costumes are the main reason, why this movie should be watched. 7/10 Bethany Cox

I, too, have been longing forever (since VCRs appeared) for this musical to become available on video. The Sherman & Sherman (& Morley) songs are perfectly good, and the choreography is super, but what I remember best is the great, iconoclastically non-chalant Fairy Godmother character (Annette Crosbie). I put her among the greatest steal-the-show supporting characters of all time, right along with Nicol Williamson's Merlin in "Excalibur."

Beautiful sounds bizarre if you do not ignore the similitaries with the musicals - fairy tales adaptations of the period. But the gifts, the precious gifts are the actors, the humor and the songs. And, sure the atypical godmother fairy. Edith Evans, Annette Crosbie, Michael Hordern,Kenneth More,Christopher Gable and Richard Chamberlain are the basic motives to see, again, time by time, this lovely film, a Christmas one, off course, because, more than each Halmark production, preserves the spirit of it. So, an old fashion lovely adaptation of classic fairy tale . And that is just, just great.

The first time I saw this movie, I couldn't believe it had Richard Chamberlain singing! I really was impressed by the production though some of the singing and dancing sequences seemed a bit long, it was, overall, a well made version of the classic Cinderella story. I thought it told the fairy tale 'to perfection'. I had just recently bought the video and was pleasantly surprised by all the extra footage it included. My daughters all enjoy it and like watching it over and over. The sets and costumes and the lovely landscapes were exceptionally beautiful. I thought Gemma Craven was the perfect Cinderella including a beautiful singing voice. But the one I thought stole the movie was the fairy godmother, played by Annette Crosbie. Her grumpy affection towards Cinderella made her a more interesting character. A must-see for anyone who wants to escape for a couple of hours with an entertaining tale.
