It's the 24th Anniversary of the Rogers & Hammerstein's Cinderella Movie!

Today is the 24th Anniversary of the Rogers & Hammerstein's Cinderella movie which originally aired November 2, 1997 on ABC. It's an absolutely fantastic musical with an equally fantastic cast which starred Whitney Houston (who also co-produced the film) as the Fairy Godmother, Brandy as Cinderella, Paolo Montalbán as Prince Christopher, Whoopi Goldberg as Queen Constantina, Victor Garber as King Maximillian, Jason Alexander as the royal assistant Lionel, Bernadette Peters as the evil Stepmother, Natalie Desselle as the evil stepsister Minerva and Veanne Cox as the evil stepsister Calliope.


I have it on DVD and I've watched it countless times because I love this movie. The songs are so indelible, it's hard to forget the lyrics to "Impossible". Along with the music, it's the amazing performance by the cast that made this film the stunning jewel it is.


This is a magical and charming movie and I'm happy that fans continue to love and appreciate this wonder take on Cinderella. If you haven't seen it please do.
