'Cinderella/Everafter Comparison\r'

'Sarah Hubbard phratry 19, 2010 Children’s Lit Review/Analysis wholeness EVERAFTER/A CINDERELLA STORY Cinderella is a classic chelahood fairy report of a preteen adult female who’s mother and father two die, go away her with a wicked maltreatmother and two wicked measuringsisters. there throw away been several flicks portraying this classic tale. unrivaled of which is Everafter starring Drew Barry much than(prenominal). In this impression a junior char loses her father and mother leaving her to be a servant for her stepmother.She meets a prince and pearls in love. In another Cinderella type romance descent A Cinderella taradiddle starring Hilary Duff, a girl who loses her p arents final stage up with her stepmother and two sisters. She locomote in love with the popular boy in school, who ends up being her prince catch. Both characterisations are based on the same classic fairy tale heretofore they differ from each other and the classic stor y. The storyline of Everafter is more similar to the classic tale than that of A Cinderella legend.Everafter has all told of the usual similarities to the classic version for example, her parents die, she ends up with her evil stepmother and two evil stepsister ( matchless of these sisters ends up being good in the end), she driblets in love with a prince, she gets help from two fair sex working in her house, she loses her glass slipper, prince charming finds her and reconciles her with her glass slipper and they live happily ever after. In the version known to most children, Cinderella does not fall in love with the prince until she goes to the ball and has to be photographic plate before midnight.In this movie she meets the prince while he is borrowing a horse from her manor. She dresses up ilk a countess and he falls in love with her. At the ball when she goes to arrange him who she really is, he gets distressed and she runs away, losing her glass slipper. In the chil dren’s version of the story the prince goes house to house trying to find the mavin who fits into the slipper and she will be his bride. In Everafter, the prince realizes what he has lost and goes to her house only to find she has been sold. He then has to go rescue her and presents her with her glass slipper.In both stories they live happily ever after. A Cinderella Story varies much more. This movie is set in present time and in America, whereas the others are thought of as senior times and set in Europe. This movie still has the classical story line scarce with a twist. She lives with her step mom and two step sister, she does all their chores, there is a boy whom she falls in love with, she has help from a woman who has been her friend for all of her life, there is a research for the mystery girl, and she drops something when she is running away because it is midnight.That is where the similarities end. There are many more differences from the classic tale in this mod ern day movie. The character Sam (Cinderella) and capital of Texas (prince charming) exchange emails and chat online before meeting. Austin has a girlfriend who is mean to Sam. After finding turn out who Sam really is Austin does not fall in love with her right away. Sam tell Austin to stop pretending to be psyche he is not and then Austin shows who he really is and only then can prince charming fall in love with Cinderella. They go finish to Princeton together and live happily ever after.I enjoyed Everafter more than I did A Cinderella Story because Everafter seems more of a fairy tale, more of a dream or fantasy. Whereas A Cinderella Story seems standardised it could happen in ein truthday life. For me, I would rather fantasize that I could be a princess and find my prince than fantasize active talking to a boy on the net income and going off to college with him. I phone that the differences in A Cinderella Story did detract from the experience for me. On the other hand I think in Everafter the differences enhanced the movie.For example, getting to know the relationship between Cinderella and the prince enhance the love you feel for the characters. In the Cinderella I knew as a kid it was more like love at first sight. In this movie their love grows in to a relationship, which fall ins it seem more likely to actually happen. These movies would attract a child viewer because every little girl knows the story of Cinderella. The modern day twist may make a little girl believe that something like this could actually happen to her and learn from the moral of the story.I think that Everafter would be more appealing to a young girl because what little girl doesn’t exigency to be a princess. Both of these stories shows that in the end good things happen to good people and the large(p) khats get what they deserve. I think that is a very inspiring message to send to a child. I would recommend both of these movies to everyone. There is no inappropr iate language or messages that would be offensive to anyone. Everafter is one of my all time favorite movies and I have never heard anybody say anything bad rough it.This movie would be appropriate for little kids, teenagers, young adults, adults and older people. Both movies are Cinderella type stories so they would probably influence girls more than they would boys. A Cinderella Story is aimed more at teenage girls. Younger girls may also like this movie but older people might think it was for younger more immature kids. In conclusion, the classic fairy tale of Cinderella is portrayed in both of the movies, Everafter, and A Cinderella Story.Each movie has similarities to the classic fairy tale, but Everafter is closer to the veritable story than A Cinderella Story. A Cinderella Story has a modern day twist, with technology and high school. Everafter on the other hand is set back in time and has a European setting. Both girls in these movies lose their parents and end up serving their stepmothers and step sisters, they both fall in love with someone in a different â€Å"class” than themselves, just both end up showing the guy that it class doesn’t matter when it comes to love and they all live happily ever after.\r\n'
