Unfortunately, it was not as well received as previous musicals. However it has aged well, I first watched it when I was about 7. I am now over 40 (but I won't say by how much!)
Spoilers if you haven't already watched The Slipper and the Rose! One little thing that I love in this movie. The Prince is kind to John, releases him from his duties as companion, and helps him to get the woman he loves. Because of that, John and Lady Caroline are in the right place to see Cinderella as she dances, and alert the Prince. Had John not been released, presumably they would not have been there. So by his kindness to John, the Prince regains his own lost love. Nice little 'what goes around, comes around' touch.
Watching this in 2020. Still is my favorite Cinderella movie. Beautiful dresses, humorous, and beautiful actors. This movie should defenitely be more famous! I love it. And how I love Richard Chamberlain❤
Just love the crumbly old King - Michael Hordern is brilliant as a man with no real grasp on anything, but a definite weakness for ladies with small feet !
The only version where prince acknowledges that a ball for marriage would be degrading to all parties involved. i thought disney's version was nice but this is much deeper.. and the line when grandma dances and later says "Most irregular" is so funny and adorable.
I saw this at the cinema when I was a child and lacked the sophistication to enjoy it. Then saw it a few years later and have been enchanted by it ever since. I adore Annette Crosby as the fairy godmother and after I die would love to be reincarnated as someone like her who could help make dreams come true for the sad and lonely. The singing, the dancing, the special effects when the pumpkin turns into a beautiful golden carriage and the mice turn into horses after that adorable little dance they do just fills me with delight. I have this movie on VHS, but no VHS player to enjoy it, so thank you with all my heart for uploading it.
Excellently written jokes, - in Oscar Wilde elegant style, beautiful clothes, hairdoes & interiors, amazing choreography! Wow, - just wow! Fairy Godmother is witty&charming, Prince is a kind&handsome young gentleman, Cinderella is lovely.
This is my first time watching this movie and I immediately fall in love with it. It has its very own magical and unique charm. I love the whole cast of this movie. I love the music, the dancing ball, ball gowns, etc. Cinderella is beautiful and let's not forget the prince. *sigh dreamily* He's sweet, gentle and handsome. Thank you for posting this. I really had a great time watching it.
I love small details in this film like the Chamberlain having liquor in his staff of office and the king taking a sip when it suits him. Such details make good characters and good relationships.
Fantastic! Loved it. Richard Chamberlain is my favourite male actor. It was such a treat watching him in this role. So glad I came across it on RUclips.
This was my favourite movie growing up and is still my favourite movie to this day. I used to watch it every week. The waltz scene is one of the most beautiful scenes in movie history, and I love how you get the full picture of the story and that it doesn't just end with him finding her and getting married. I think my favourite song though is Tell Him That it Wasn't Love. The power in her voice makes me cry every time.
I'm surprised that some or most people have never seen or heard of this movie but it's amazing! I love this take on the cinderella fairy tale! It's awesome and of course i love the prince and music! I love it!
One of the best movies out there and all the way from the 70's... It feels so real and it was always so stupendous to watch this. The costumes alone must have taken months to do and the surreal way the movie places is essentially in the 1700-1800's period. I watched this when I was a child in my grandparents house in an old VCR recorded a long time ago. They had a few as they used to watch this periodically since then. Nothing beats good old fashioned acting and honest display of emotion... How much we've progressed and lost... definitely worth a watch. =D
I'm shedding tears watching this as I watched it growing up with my Grandmother and Grandfather whom I absolutely adored and still miss terribly, brilliant move, enjoy all ❤️❤️
This musical is brilliant. The slipper and the rose has three amazing representations of my favorites villains, playing Margaret Lockwood (this was her last movie in 1976) like the evil stepmother and Rosalin Ayres as Lady Isobella and Sherrie Hewson as Lady Palatine, the two stepsisters. I didn´t know that Richard Chamberlain would sing actually or would have done some musical, but Gemma Craven was all a revelation as Cinderella, the best movie of her filmography. All the credit is always for the heroes, but the presence of realistic villains is very important too.
I've loved watching this since a tiny kiddo. I dearly love the old King. He is my favorite character from any movie with his good old fashioned humour. But I have to give applause to the whole cast and especially the people in charge of costumes and dance!
I remember watching it as a Child together with my grandmother on VCR like 2 a Day 7 days a week when i go on holidays at my grandparentshouse... this was her favorite movie and mine and still is. What beautyful memories ♡ One of the most underrated cinderella movies when it's Just perfection ♡♡♡♡
This Cinderella movie - the absolute best!! - accompanied me throughout my youth in the 19-eightees. I sat infront of the TV with my tape recorder and recorded the songs. It was only years later that the soundtrack was published. Sherman & Sherman Brothers at their very best! Richard Chamberlain and Gemma - just the perfect couple!
Yes! My favourite Cinderella film ! I first discovered this in my youth and have loved it since. Thank you for the upload. Beautiful Gemma with the lovely voice, Ditto Richard and Margaret Lockwood, looking still beautiful, in her last Film . The whole cast was wonderful. And the songs...'Tell him that it wasnt Love ' and 'I cant forget the melody '❤❤
I really really liked this version of the Cinderella story! I only wish Cinderella and the prince had interacted more, but aside from that, everything was great!
I waited a lifetime for somone to sing 'Rainbows raced across the room'. Glorious. My most favourite Cinderella version. Brilliant soundtrack with memorable songs.
I was so addicted to this movie when I first saw it in the theatre over 40years ago even then we went back to see it 8x loved it then and love it now ❤❤
I loved how the dresses and the ball gowns and basically all of their costumes look here than the live remake Disney did. They look more accurate than they did in the Disney remake with their white wigs. And the humor in here! I live for the humor here, especially the king's. Edit: So after watching a few reviews on RUclips and watching the [the Disney remake] thrice, my opinion about it changed. That film was set on a completely fictional world, and I understand why it's more modernized in the costume section now. That's all, lol.
I think Disney’s cinderella is set somewhere in the 19th century even in the animated version. This one is purely the 18th century and is mentioned in the royal tombs if u looked closely at the year
Came back here after the creative travesty that is Amazon's 2021 adaptation. Not the worst movie, but certainly not made with the love and attention that this one was. I think this, Rodgers/Hammerstein and Ever After are better and more engaging than other versions. Thank you for cleansing my eyes. 😃
She didn't notice when the magic shoes appeared on her feet nor when she lost one. Anyone would notice a missing shoe running down stairs. Ever after with Drew Barrymore & Angelica Houston is my favorite version.
Questo video è proprio un gioiello! Non solo per la presenza di un Richard giovane di 42 anni che sembra un ragazzo, bravo come sempre e delizioso quando canta, ma proprio per tutto il film. Gli attori che interpretano il re e la regina, suoi genitori, sono fantastici. E che dire del balletto di tutti i nobili, anziani, che fanno parte dell'entourage reale? Sono un puro divertimento! Sarebbe da riproporre così com'è, perche' storia senza tempo favola sempre attuale. Bella proprio!💯💢💢💢💢
Hat nie mehr so ein schönes Cinderella gegeben wie mit diesen großartigen Schauspielern😍einfach nur schön. Und der Humor kommt auch nicht zu kurz, PERFEKT, Danke👍👍👍👍👍💝
What a superb musical!! Stellar cast. Marvellous lyrics. Just everything. I never saw this version ever before. What a treat for all senses. Will certainly watch again. Bravo!! Thank you so much for sharing 👏👏👏👏🙏💖
The costumes are so magnificent especially the prince's costumes. Richard Chamberlain looks so breathtakingly handsome, tall, dashing and royal in those costumes. He is made to wear those.
Rainbows raced around the room when he danced with me Shooting stars began to zoom when he danced with me In his arms I was ascending My world became a magic blending Of dreams and hopes and love When he danced with me❤
Yep out of all these characters I feel most like the fairy godmother...sassy, magical and will in older age be surrounded by a vast array of animals. I also complain about the amount of work I have to do...lol
'The Slipper And The Rose' (1976/1977) Version. Beautiful era costumes, fantasy and people. Richard Chamberlain... ummm... simply devine and delicious. ;-* (Sort of busted my bubble of my idol a few weeks ago, when someone mentioned in 'Bourne Identity' (Ft. RichardChamberlain)... that in later years, he was in a relationship where women weren't on the live-in menu). Shocked the El out of me!! Oh well.  ̄(=∵=) ̄
it was soooo nice thank you the 1 moment I think: oh what; theres singing.... but then I do préfère it for all ( Cinderellas;-)) 😊 lovely made + 4laught .. and I never see Rich. Chamberlane ashere, singing and dancing, joking 😉
Un sogno. Veramente una fantasia di tanto tempo fa, ma moderna e attuale: cantare e recitare. Il massimo”” exploit”. Un brevetto””Chamberlain “”. Un musical “”trilogia””suprema. Magnus Richard, attore colto, classico, sempre padrone del set.💯😘👏🤩🇮🇹
how come in every Cinderella movie all the things transformed by fairy-god-mother returns to it's actual state by the stroke of midnight except the glass slippers ? shouldn't they change or vanish or whatever like everything else ?
One of the best musicals ever. I don't understand why it is not as famous as "the sound of music", etc... And the comedy in this film is Gold!!
Unfortunately, it was not as well received as previous musicals. However it has aged well, I first watched it when I was about 7. I am now over 40 (but I won't say by how much!)
Agree.
Spoilers if you haven't already watched The Slipper and the Rose!

My sentiments exactly!
Yup
Watching this in 2020.
Still is my favorite Cinderella movie.
Beautiful dresses, humorous, and beautiful actors.
This movie should defenitely be more famous!
I love it.
And how I love Richard Chamberlain❤
Good songs too
Good songs too
Just love the crumbly old King - Michael Hordern is brilliant as a man with no real grasp on anything, but a definite weakness for ladies with small feet !
My favorite cinderella version. The movie made me laugh, sing, cry, and happy.
Same here sister 😂😃🥰
I have never seen this before. The whole family of the prince is outrageous. I love it.
The only version where prince acknowledges that a ball for marriage would be degrading to all parties involved. i thought disney's version was nice but this is much deeper.. and the line when grandma dances and later says "Most irregular" is so funny and adorable.
Edith Evans was almost 88 when this was filmed, and died in the year of its release.

one of my favorite movies as a child in the 80s, so glad to watch it again.
Y e s😍😘
Excellently written jokes, - in Oscar Wilde elegant style, beautiful clothes, hairdoes & interiors, amazing choreography! Wow, - just wow! Fairy Godmother is witty&charming, Prince is a kind&handsome young gentleman, Cinderella is lovely.
My best scene- " so we must be protocorigorically correct" dance scenes

I could not say it better myself!
I love small details in this film like the Chamberlain having liquor in his staff of office and the king taking a sip when it suits him. Such details make good characters and good relationships.
Superb musical! So beautiful songs!And..Chamberlain in his prime was one of the most handsome males in cinema history!
Fantastic! Loved it. Richard Chamberlain is my favourite male actor. It was such a treat watching him in this role. So glad I came across it on RUclips.
the singing, dancing, wonderful, charming, handsome Richard Chamberlain ❤
I loved this film as a child, but did not realise how funny it is until I was an adult.
This was my favourite movie growing up and is still my favourite movie to this day. I used to watch it every week. The waltz scene is one of the most beautiful scenes in movie history, and I love how you get the full picture of the story and that it doesn't just end with him finding her and getting married. I think my favourite song though is Tell Him That it Wasn't Love. The power in her voice makes me cry every time.
Correct you are. Love that song
This was my favorite movie too! I know it almost word for word.
Everything about this movie, with the exception of Cinderella's coach, was elaborate. The costumes were extraordinary!.
Virginia Baldwin the coach was not elaborate???
I'm surprised that some or most people have never seen or heard of this movie but it's amazing! I love this take on the cinderella fairy tale! It's awesome and of course i love the prince and music! I love it!
Me too.
i used to watch this movie with my dad. Brings back lovely memories for me :)
Me too! But not one person I know outside my extended family has ever heard of it!
My favorite Cinderella!! I've always loved this version!!!

Correct. Old movies are better than new ones.
WOW. Finally a copy of this movie where the lips are in sync with the sound. LOVE IT. Thank you for uploading M.C. Frank author
I love how Cinderella never asks for a man all she asks is for a dress and a night off
One of my favorite movies of all time, I saw this the first time about, wow about 20+ yrs ago. The music, costumes and acting was wonderful
Thank you for doing us a community service! now to introduce my 6 year old daughter to this film so we can sing together!
I'm shedding tears watching this as I watched it growing up with my Grandmother and Grandfather whom I absolutely adored and still miss terribly, brilliant move, enjoy all ❤️❤️
I'm sorry that you lost them. But I am sure that they are watching over you.
I saw this movie on TV when I was a kid at Christmas...It sure brings back a lot of happy memories!
This musical is brilliant.
The slipper and the rose has three amazing representations of my favorites villains, playing Margaret Lockwood (this was her last movie in 1976) like the evil stepmother and Rosalin Ayres as Lady Isobella and Sherrie Hewson as Lady Palatine, the two stepsisters.

Sister and I watched this all the time as a kid. Brings back memories. Funny how it’s still not changed really
I remember watching it as a Child together with my grandmother on VCR like 2 a Day 7 days a week when i go on holidays at my grandparentshouse... this was her favorite movie and mine and still is. What beautyful memories ♡
One of the most underrated cinderella movies when it's Just perfection ♡♡♡♡
This is one of my favourite movies from the very first time I saw this movie and by far the best version ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What a wonderful movie! I recall seeing this when I was just a young teenager. I loved it then and I still love it today.
This is a movie which I'm never tired of watching♥️♥️
Same here.
Very entertaining musical movie, it's been underrated, but no doubt this is a classic one.
One of my favourite movies, watched this back in the 90's still a good classic movie. 😊
Thank you!!!!! Best Cinderella ever!!!

I really really liked this version of the Cinderella story! I only wish Cinderella and the prince had interacted more, but aside from that, everything was great!
ABSOLUTELY Fantastic. I loved every second of it.
First saw this Christmas 1982. Loved it. My only wish was that Cinderella make her Fairy Godmother a cup of tea!
This is the first time I'm seeing this. And I am loving it so far. To me, the King is hilarious!
I think the King is played by the same actor as Bianca and Kathryn’s father in “The Taming of the Shrew”...
@@karenramnath9993 I'll check it out. Thanks 😊
Rei é o melhor... saudações do Brasil
l love richard forever.from argentina❤❤❤
I waited a lifetime for somone to sing 'Rainbows raced across the room'. Glorious. My most favourite Cinderella version. Brilliant soundtrack with memorable songs.
I love how outrageous the cousin is. "Once you've made your choice, I will unleash myself". Ha.
And of course: "...I am not proud, I'm just desperate." Hehe
Cousin just gives it that extra fun 😆
He was also in the Tommy Steele movie Half A Sixpence.
I was so addicted to this movie when I first saw it in the theatre over 40years ago even then we went back to see it 8x loved it then and love it now ❤❤
I love Richard as the romantic prince.
Such a fun version of Cinderella!

Fairy Godmother's voice reminded me of maggie smith and then i was imagining her in harry potter costume and giving a stern talking to cinderella.
Definitely one of my favourite movies
48:22 Love the Scottish response: “You’ll no be takin’ our wummin. Off with ye now!”
I have my memoris with this mouvies The slipper and the rose ....my chilhood .....
What a superb musical!! Stellar cast. Marvellous lyrics. Just everything. I never saw this version ever before. What a treat for all senses. Will certainly watch again. Bravo!! Thank you so much for sharing 👏👏👏👏🙏💖

My first time it's the best version of Cinderella
Lolitaⵣ beautyⵣ most definitely the best
Joseph Henry yeah 😍
Absolutely... I wonder why it is not much more popular
Claudia S. I wonder the same. But barely anyone even knows of it!
@@claudias.309 Well then, it is our duty to educate the masses about this gem of a movie!
When my Dad was still with me. I always love Cinderella😍
Wonderfull....very nice....Chamberlain 💋 in love forever. Bravissimoooo💋❣️😍
The costumes are so magnificent especially the prince's costumes. Richard Chamberlain looks so breathtakingly handsome, tall, dashing and royal in those costumes. He is made to wear those.

"My Lord High Chamberlain! What an unexpected pleasure!" :)
I love Cinderella movies whatever version it was made. And this Slippers and Rose really wonderful...only the sound effects I truly object
I love this movie

Perfect
Music is incredibly beautiful
Richard Chamberlain is the ultimate Prince Charming
My favourite movie as a child
So lovely - thank you very much for uploading!
Rainbows raced around the room when he danced with me
Shooting stars began to zoom when he danced with me
In his arms I was ascending
My world became a magic blending
Of dreams and hopes and love
When he danced with me❤
Delightful!
57:30
There should be a sequel where we learn how she became a fairy godmother
I always love this moves
Yep out of all these characters I feel most like the fairy godmother...sassy, magical and will in older age be surrounded by a vast array of animals. I also complain about the amount of work I have to do...lol
I want a pair of glass slippers! 🙏
The most realistic version, I would say
l love forever richard❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
i didnt know Richard Chamberlain could sing :)
He released music in the 60s. He sang 'All I have to do is dream'.
@@voulafisentzidis8830 oh wow, i didnt know, ill search for it, thank you
There was another film based on Cinderella story Glass slipper starring Leslie Caron
Richard Chamberlain had such skinny legs the breeches look good 53:53. Men today over train and bulk up making the wearing of period costume absurd.
I'm here for Rosalind Ayres 💗💗
'The Slipper And The Rose' (1976/1977) Version.
Beautiful era costumes, fantasy and people.
Richard Chamberlain... ummm... simply devine and delicious. ;-*
(Sort of busted my bubble of my idol a few weeks ago, when someone mentioned in 'Bourne Identity' (Ft. RichardChamberlain)... that in later years, he was in a relationship where women weren't on the live-in menu).
Shocked the El out of me!! Oh well.
 ̄(=∵=) ̄
Pure dreamy escapism. No memory of it as a child sadjy. But loved it.
....amazing dress.
.....Just for a princes. ....change the roll of stage!! !!
Thank god I must watch it
it was soooo nice thank you
the 1 moment I think: oh what; theres singing.... but then I do préfère it for all ( Cinderellas;-)) 😊
lovely made + 4laught .. and I never see Rich. Chamberlane ashere, singing and dancing, joking 😉
Oh I love this movie.

Príncipe é meu sonho....Beijo é lindo.....Estou amando
The dot was so cute
I’m very fond of this film, the only problem being the brown / pinkish colour.
how come in every Cinderella movie all the things transformed by fairy-god-mother returns to it's actual state by the stroke of midnight except the glass slippers ? shouldn't they change or vanish or whatever like everything else ?
I've seen a comment said because all things were transformed from another things except the glass slippers, so they remained unchanged.
she used her own magic for those and borrowed for the rest of it. So they didn't vanish like the rest.
That was the gift given to her by fairy God Mothet.
@@miriamchristmas2771that's exactly what I was going to say as she stated in the film that she had to borrow magic.
