I needed a break from Blacklist, the series we’ve been watching for the past couple of months. I told Studly Doright that a change of pace was in order and to my surprise he suggested the new Cinderella movie.
After checking to see if he had a fever (he didn’t) I agreed, and we settled in for an evening of wonderful entertainment. Well, I loved it. The jury is still out on Studly’s reaction. You see, musicals aren’t his thing.
The film is clever and adorable and a love letter to feminism. How I wish I’d been exposed to this version in my youth.
Biggest surprise—Camila Cabello as Cinderella.
Biggest surprise honorable mentions—James Corden as a mouse and Idina Menzel as the stepmother.

Peace, people.
Loved the film. Loved the music! I can’t wait for my granddaughter to watch it.I could watch it again and again just to hear the music! Fabulous!

You will LOVE this. Honestly, I did not recognize her face, but when she began singing I thought, “Could this be Camila?” Google says it was—I was so impressed by her acting skills, but that voice—wow!

It is! She just looks so sweet and innocent in this. I think that’s why I didn’t recognize her at first!
