Will the Shoe Fit?

The Walt Disney animation “Cinderella” is one of my favorite Disney movies. In the movie Cinderella is betrayed as a girl that is raised from her step mother and step sisters. Her step mother treats her like a servant and as she is too good to be seen with Cinderella. Cinderella then makes friends with mice she names. One of my all time favorites is Gus Gus. The mice have to keep an eye out for Sylvester, the cat.

When Cinderella finds out about a ball in the royal castle for the Prince to find a wife, she tells her step mother she would want to attend. Her step mother mocks her and said she isn’t pretty enough and she must stay home and clean. This is so mean of her to do because I would think she would want her out of the house but apparently not.

The step sisters, Anastasia and Drizella, start mocking her and saying how the prince would choose one of them since they are “the prettiest of the town”, which they aren’t in my opinion. At this point I just feel really bad for Cinderella since she has down nothing wrong just got stuck with a terrible family. So she gets locked in her room from her mother leaving no way for her to go to the ball. She later finds her fairy god mother who makes her a pretty dress and shoes, but has to be back before the clock strikes midnight, because she will become her normal self again. Spoil alert she barely makes it and loses track of time, also she never got a chance to make her appearance to the prince. She loses her shoe but the prince tracks down every girl in the town to find who the shoe belongs to when he finds her they fall in love and get married. This makes the sisters very mad but quite frankly I think they deserve after how they treated her. They then suck up to Cinderella because she is married to the prince.
