"Cinderella" is a 7-minute black-and-white film from 1922 and this is Walt Disney's silent film take on the famous story by French 17th century writer Charles Perrault. Maybe this tale badly needs sound and color as this one here (without these two) is very difficult to watch. It is extremely fast to fit in as much action as possible into this short runtime, but it feels also extremely bizarre, especially in the first half. I am pretty sure that if the story would not be that well-known to anybody, this one here would be perceived even worse than it actually is because nobody would have a clue what was going on here. I cannot say I enjoyed the watch at all and I was actually glad it was over so quickly. And yes, this one may be almost 100 years old, but even back then animation was already better than we see in here. Watch the Betty Boop take on the story instead (with color and sound).
