Biographical Information  

  Cinderella is a classic Disney movie. Directed by clade geranium, Hamilton Luke, and Wilfred Jackson. The movie was released in theaters in the United States on February 15th, 1950. The cinderella movie had six musical songs on its track. I choose my favorite song "so this is love" written by Al Hoffman, Mack David, and Jerry Livingston. "so this is love" was sung by two people, Mike Douglas and Ilene Woods. Mike Douglas was born on August 11, 1920, in Chicago Illinois. His acting career was known from the cinderella movie. Mike died on August 11, 2006, at the age of 86. Ilene woods was born on May 5th, 1929 in Portsmouth's new hemisphere. Ilene started her career started when she was 2. Unfortunately Ilene died July 1, 2010, at 81. With the help of these people a beautiful song was produced

What role does this specific work serve?

    This song is played closer to the end of the movie. Cinderella is dancing with the prince not knowing she was dancing with the prince. As the song ends the clock strikes midnight. Cinderella runs down the stairs losing a shoe. The next day she finds out she was dancing with the prince that night. The prince then goes on a trip to find the foot that fits the slipper. 

Social Commentary

    Cinderella has a few moral lessons. Be kind no matter what, Cinderella has a very sweet soul that gets taken advantage of by her stepmother and stepsisters. Cinderella shows taking chances and being brave is important, even though she didn't have a special ball gown she wanted to go to the ball with her stepfamily. You should always believe in yourself, and lastly never stop daydreaming. Cinderella was such a popular movie it was full of many lessons for our young-minded friends to learn from. 

My opinion 

    Cinderella was one of my mom's favorite movies when she was a little girl. She shared it with me and I'm sure she wished she didn't because I made her watch it a million times. This movie had many good lessons and was extremely good at setting the mood for fun and dancing. I loved all of the songs but my favorite has always been "so this is love". The tone is slow and lovable. the tempo is moderate enough for dancing at a ball. this song is a classic.
