A lot of people misunderstand Cinderella as a Gold Digger who went to the ball to get a Prince but the big misunderstanding is she just wanted ONE PERFECT NIGHT where she wasn't a servant or a step daughter. She wanted one sparkling beautiful night away from her home. She wasn't even looking for the Prince when she arrived at the Ball she was just in awe of everything and when she leaves she says "Oh I- I haven't met the Prince!" meaning she had no idea she was with the Prince the entire night! And the fact that she was so thankful for that one night and the Glass Slipper was proof of her happiness was all that she needed. Just one beautiful memory that could never be tarnished to continue her life with.
Also people saying that she needed a man to get out of her family situation and couldn't save herself - they have no idea what it's like to be abused since childhood and also that back then, there was no life outside of family: you either married into a family or stayed in the one you were born in. It was rare for a husband to live in his wife's family. Those were the times, women outside a family struggled more with survival
It's more than Cinderella just wanting to party, the heart of the story how her persistent goodness brought her before the prince. That even the animals and a fairy godmother worked for her good to escape her mother.
Not to mention, she managed to keep positive despite her abusive upbringing, and unlike the remake, she did try to get out of her tower asking the mice to get the dog and everything to get out, she didn't just dance around. The remake tried to make her strong, but made her seem weaker. This old cinderella was trapped and could not leave by choice and was conditioned as a child to obey while the new one she can leave whenever she wanted, but never did until literally a prince came to get her.
The woman who voiced Cinderella actually got Alzheimers towards the end of her life, when she would be in a fit of confusion, the nurses could play the record of Cinderella singing and it would help calm her down.
You have modern Disney to thank for f*cking up the visuals of this film with their "restoration" ... They edited it sooo much that the color pallet is heavily altered from it's original,and a lot of line work ,shadows as well as sfx are gone in the restored versions ... THANKS A LOT DISNEY !?

Films back then are objectively better than today's pile of over produced trash
@@imagaybanana2004SAME she's always been my fave, she's always been a sassy go-getter from the start, not just in 3, though 3 did a ton of improvements and fleshing out of her character, she was definitely strong especially for the time
@@imagaybanana2004 My late mom was a feminist and she always remarked how strong Cinderella was and that she never gave up even in the lowest of times.. and that final scene where she produced the other slipper was epic.
@@nudgificator Verna Felton have done many Disney voices. She started out as The Elephant Matriach and Mrs. Jumbo in Dumbo, also The Queen of Hearts in Alice in Wonderland, Aunt Sarah in Lady and The Tramp and Winifred in The Jungle Book. She passed away one day after Walt Disney himself.
Fun Fact: the actress who plays Lady Tremaine also played Maleficent in Sleeping Beauty, as well as the Fairy Godmother is also The Good Fairy Flora in Sleeping Beauty. Disney reused a lot of actors back then, even up to the 1970s. It is also said that the animation of Cinderella's dress transformation was Walt's favorite out of all of his movies. (*And that dress is white, no matter what anyone else says) Thanks for the reaction!
Studio Ghibli was founded in 1985, Disney's Snow White was created in 1937. Miyazaki was inspired by the Disney classics, but he wasn't really into the whole romantic princess thing and wanted to focus on the blooming independence of a child growing up as a regular kid. Regular folk in an irregular world.
+ SPACESHIPLEWIS When they mentioned them starting around the same time I immediately pulled this video up on my phone to comment. Glad someone else beat me to it, lol.
Most of the human parts were filmed real life before they animated over them which is why a lot of their movements and details are so realistic, especially the stepmother. The lady who voiced her also acted the real life parts for the animators to draw out. They did this to make the process go faster and save money from having to reanimate anything that may not have worked.
Sure, but it's still full animation and not just copy & paste photographic processing like say some of Ralph Bakshi's stuff. The scenes Disney filmed were just a reference starting point. Shooting live reference photos was also something used by many famous illustrators like Norman Rockwell, N. C. Wyeth, and Gil Evgren.
They did not use rotoscoping or animate over live acting. They filmed actors to get a sense of movement and then animated from memory. Rotoscoping and animating are two very different methods.
3:40 Disney's people designed the multiplane camera system, with a camera at the top, shooting down through layers of glass. The glass sheets could be moved up and down and side to side, and each layer would hold artwork on clear cells. The bottom layer would be the background, and shots were planned to move each plane at different speeds and directions to create the desired effect. BAMBI probably features the most amazing, subtle use of it, but the first short using it was a Silly Symphony short called THE OLD MILL (1937), which won an Oscar. It was also used for some big establishing shots in SNOW WHITE & THE 7 DWARFS (1937) and PINOCCHIO (1940). CINDERELLA was made on a budget, so there are just a few simple shots like this, using it.
Yes, yes.. Great comment. The process of "rotoscoping" which Disney animators used to capture Cinderella's movements are still breathtaking, even 70 years later. I think of rotoscoping as an early form of motion capture..
@@whitenoisereacts There was no computer capable of any 3D animation in 1950. That was all hand made. First polygonal animation (really simple hand) is from 1972. You can find that here on YT.
@@dacsus rotoscope isn't 3d animation. It's, I believe, sort of like tracing. It's when you trace over a series of photos. What the other poster was referring too is it sort of is like "stone age" mocap as you do capture live animations frame by frame but instead of a computer tracking and recording it, you have to do it by hand frame by frame. edit: I think I worded this weirdly. i only meant that rotoscoping reminds the other poster of mocap in the barest of terms. because for both technics, you're copying from a live object, just one uses a computer to render and draw out the frame (data) while the other is like that, just instead of a computer, it is an animator using a pencil to "capture" the frame (data) from an already captured video/photo.
I hate that people think that Cinderella's dream was to marry a prince. What she actually wished for was a night to go to the castle. And she didn't even recognize the prince at the ball.
I really respect Disney's cinderella. the animation as always spot on, but also how mature it was. The message I get from this is to be kind. Treat people with decency and respect. ( even if they don't always respect) in even that will be give to you.
Another great reaction. I look forward to every time James says, "So yeah." 😂 I really really love this film. I love all of the characters. This Cinderella gets a really bad rap nowadays but she is one of my favorites. She had a very abusive upbringing but remains hopeful and kind to others. Despite popular belief she wasn't "waiting around" for a prince. She wanted a night out and took the initiative ro even tell her stepmother she should go. She didn't even know the man she danced with was the prince until the next day. I enjoy how much the sound and music enhances the movements within the film.
Fact that I kinda cried over when I first found out was there was a song written and recorded for the film (but was cut) called “The Dress That My Mother Wore” which basically told us that her mother’s dress that she was planning on wearing to the ball (before her stepsisters destroyed it) was actually her mother’s wedding dress.
Something interesting I noticed with this movie is that we focus on the mice a lot more than other animal "sidekicks" in Disney princess movies. Like they have entire scenes that are just the mice and I can't really think of any other Disney princess movies that have entire scenes with just the animal characters (not counting Princess and the Frog because that's a whole different situation lol).
I think the mice here are more involved with the plot than any other movie, but it’s not the only older Disney film that has scenes dedicated to animal side characters. Like in Sleeping Beauty, with the animals in the woods. Animals behaving like humans, or managing to do human tasks as animals, are cute and make for cheerful/funny skits.
Yeah, think about the time it came from, most popular animations before were little comedy pieces. There was also a lot of focus on the dwarves in Snow White. It’s interesting to see how the trends change in animated movies, you’ll also notice “I wish” songs instead of “I want” songs like you see starting in the Disney renaissance.
The team at Disney Studios must have figured out that a fairy tale feature film needs some entertainment in it, not just the basic tale itself. So in addition to songs and music, they added the comedy element and the amusing/charming activities of the mice and birds (mostly the mice ... and also Lucifer). I can't imagine this film without the antics of Cinderella's pals Gus and Jacques; by the time they're hauling that key up the stairs we are totally rooting for them to save the day. It would certainly be a very different movie without them.
Disney animators used a technique called "rotoscoping" to capture the precise movements of the actress playing Cinderella. The animators used this process for Snow White as well as other films. They were basically doing an early form of motion capture but with a pioneering film process that would guide the animators through the painstaking and difficult process of animating human movements. Upon seeing this masterpiece again, I'm still amazed at the beautiful backgrounds and the multiplane camera technique. A tour de force of animation. Love your channel, great commentary, thanks for sharing this journey through film history with us.
Studio Ghibli was founded in 1985 :) I do adore the classic Disney films; there is a soothing and sweet quality to them. Not to mention that as you mentioned this is old school animation and there's this sense of awe and respect just from knowing how old these films are and what they were able to accomplish without our technical advances of today.
I'd love to see how y'all like Sleeping Beauty since the backgrounds imitate the style & perspective of Medieval tapestries. (Also a lot of the story in the movie is adapted from the ballet by Petipa, and they used Tchaikovsky's ballet score so it has a very different feel to it!)
You should really try watching the Making of a Masterpiece documentary on Cinderella. It's got tons of info on animation, voice acting, musical score, and lots more. There's a couple of them here on RUclips. The early Disney movies ' making of ' features are pretty fascinating. Glad you guys had fun with this one. It deserves it's place in animation history.
fun fact: in the original cinderella, the step sisters chopped off pieces of their feet to make the slipper fit. also cinderella was protected by magic which is why no one recognized her and it’s why the slipper only fits her
That's true to the Brothers Grimm but theirs was not the original. Disney's is specifically based off Perrault's version which is about a century older. However Cinderella has existed in some form since Antiquity.
People often mistake Cinderellas niceness with weakness but it's really strength. Cinderella was dealt a bad hand and did her best with it without being mean. You can't always control how people treat you but you can control your own response to it. The trope of Cinderella waiting at home for the prince to save her isn't true, she saved herself.
I love when the credits are at the beginning especially with the music and pictures! It really feels like classic Disney when I see it. I think my favorite beginning credits is from Sleeping Beauty tho, Cinderella is up there with it. Also I believe Cinderella’s dress is actually white/silver and not blue. I think they only made her dress blue in merchandise and at the parks due to the fact they didn’t want it to look like a wedding dress.
And a white dress for little kids would most likely get dirty very quickly. I love the shimmering white ball gown in this movie. And the choker Cinderella wears is so elegant.
On Technicolor: Disney Studios acquired exclusive 3-color Technicolor rights (for animation) in 1932 through 1935 (and used it until 1978) which gave Disney films a lustre and gorgeousness that no other animation studio (using the earlier 2-color process) could match. The first Disney short in color was the Oscar winning Flowers and Trees (1932) from their Silly Symphony series.
There’s a saying that I love about Cinderella and it’s just that she never asked or expected to fall in love she really just wanted a night out at the ball lol
One thing I love about the animation is the scene where the sisters rip up the dress. The colours progressively get both darker and change to red tints, before promptly snapping back when Tremaine speaks. Probably why it's so intense despite the action itself being so simple! Also someone had to draw and animate the sister's butts when they walk in their own dresses :p
9:39 I also thought those were pieces of cheese when I was a kid, but looking more closely at their shape now, I see that they're actually corn kernels.
Loved the reaction! I do wish you had shown my favorite part! Drizella trying on the slipper: "Of all the stupid, little, idiots! I'll do it myself....get away from me!" She's such a miniature version of her mom and I love it 😂
The Narrator at the beginning is Betty Lou Gerson who would later do Cruella de Vil (and Mrs. Birdwell) in One Hundred and One Dalmatians. Such a contrast between her two voice roles (though Cruella does possess some eccentric charms in a couple of scenes, especially the beginning, she is mean and cruel).
If you look at the title on the sheet music when the conductor is starting to play the waltz, it does say So This Is Love after the music piece and the upcoming song.
I love how genuine James happiness is. It makes the reactions way better. It's so cool to rewatch the movie, the animations are so good! I can't believe its been so long.
The immense knowledge on this movie's animation, though. I'm impressed . . . LOL, watching James talk to the mice characters -- I just can't 🤣🤣 And that TEACUP SCENE with Gus Gus is just EPIC.
I love how you guys delve into classic animation. I know the modern Disney movies look more realistic and feature a wider variety of characters but for me the classic Disney is the best Disney. I remember having all the classic films on VHS as a kid in the 90s and I honestly never knew they were made so much earlier than that until I was older. Keep it up analyzing these iconic films!
Thanks, James! Thanks, Ninetailedbrush! 💎 This one is my favorite animated version... and my favorite live-action version was actually released September of 2021. 🐭
As a kid, I would always forget how old this movie was. Love the animation. The animals are all so adorable too. I honestly love the cat, Lucifer. 😅💖 Yes to more classic Disney btw!
I love your reaction to seeing Anastasia and Driella trying on the shoe. In the german stories the stepmother forces the girls to cut their feet to fit the shoe.
There are real actors playing the parts then they were used as the animation template. Actors were filmed on large soundstages mouthing to a playback of the dialogue soundtrack. You can see how life-like some of the movements are.
Cinderella, Ariel, Mulan and Pocahontas are my favorite Disney princess. I agree with you, Cinderella is the sweetest person, I always wish to have that kind of heart.
It's funny that you thought of the Stepmother as almost like the Evil Queen. I don't recall if she voiced that one, but she was definitely the voice of the original Maleficent. Most of these super old Disney films have a lot of crossover. The king here is a king in Sleeping Beauty. The Fairy Godmother is... I think one of the three good fairies, Flora I believe. And that's just from recognizing voices this run through. Robin Hood, The Sword in the Stone, Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland, and Sleeping Beauty are all ones I'd recommend/request. And for a more modern but still considered 'classic' these days, The Great Mouse Detective stands as the only animated Disney film with burlesque dancer mice. Do with that as you will (personally I find it hysterical).
You guys should definitely react to original versions of old Disney rather than Blu-Ray remastered versions (if you can find them!), tons of detailing and line-work is lost from the original animation when they "cleaned it up". You might also notice her dress color is pretty inconsistent in this version, ranging from silver to bright blue in some scenes. The original dress was silver, but when they remastered it, they changed the color in some scenes to match the marketing blue color-scheme of the character.
It's so nice y'all watched this, just a lovely film done so well in many ways. My favorite Disney classic is- Sleeping Beauty! I remember as a young teen when they had re- released it to theaters for a few months and watching the scene where Maleficent turns into the dragon was just freaking awesome! And it had my head totally flooding her rise to the top of the movie screen. It totally enthralled me. I love the movie as a whole and how well it's done for it's time. Was fun watching how much you enjoyed this one!☺👸🏰💒
@@abigailorabby22 There were some aspects of it I liked but really hated that they turned Aurora's Father into the bad guy. SB is close to my heart because as a kid, my sisters and I decided to choose a Disney Princess for our persona. I being the eldest got first pick and chose Aurora. Back then ages ago you only had so many to pick from but SB was always my fave. Only with me, SB would have had dark brown hair lol. 😊 Anyways, the 2nd Maleficent movie I liked better. Though they are ones I feel the desire to watch more than the couple of times I did.
@@gailjohnston1248 aww, how cute 🥰 who did your sisters dress up as? Why didn’t my sister and I think of that lol but we would often reenact/imitate the hilarious parts of Disney princess movies (like Snow White running through the woods 🌲 🌲 and the mice singing in Cinderella 🐭 🎤). Fun times ☺️ Yea, go for it! I personally would have enjoyed having a dark haired Aurora to relate to (no offense to blonde hair). Yesss, I totally agree the second one also developed Maleficent’s character more and no one in that movie is fully good nor fully bad. It’s something they’ve been doing more of in tv shows and movies nowadays - developing the villain’s side of the story - and I totally love seeing that. Once Upon A Time and Joker are also good examples of this. 👏🏼
@@abigailorabby22 Thanks! We didn't dress up as them, it was just a alter ego sort of thing of claiming our fave Princess. And funny thing is, it continued later with my Niece and she got 4 of my Cousins, daughters as kids to pick their Princess lol. (I never got married or had any kids, nor did my other sister.) My twin sisters, picked Cinderella and Snow White.
When i was young, Cinderella was my favorite Disney princess 😍 Watching this movie help me to feel young again 😄 Great reaction, as always guys! I really appreciate your old Disney movies réactions and analysis; merci pour votre enthousiasme et votre travail 👍😊
Loved this!! One of my favourite classics! If you guys have seen Sleeping Beauty i highly highly recommend watching Maleficent with Angelina Jolie, they're both great!
The layers were done using what is called a multiplane camera. I could try to explain it, but I highly recommend looking it up. In fact it would make a pretty cool reaction video. Basically they were shot from above through layers of glass with the different layers of the backdrops painted on them. I would watch a video about it to get more information.
Ooh - foreshadowing at 4:38 and 11:05! Thanks for posting - this was a lot of fun! Snow White and Sleeping Beauty are both GORGEOUS. I'd watch reactions : )
While I can't speak for Miyazaki inspiration, Disney did inspire tezuka the creator of astro boy and Kimball the white lion which would be the founding basis of anime. So in a lot turn of events Disney's influence on animation ironically inspired anime
This was my favorite Disney movie as a child. I had it on VHS (along with a bunch of other Disney movies) and my parents worked out a system where I would watch the left-most VHS on the shelf, then move it over to the right after it was done so that I would rotate watching through them each day. I got in trouble more than once for moving Cinderella to the left when my parents weren't looking, thinking I was slick xD
The score confuses me sometimes with its perfection. I can’t decipher between nostalgia and brilliance except when I haven’t seen or heard the movies in years and then it comes on whilst playing movies for my child and I’m transported through time and space and I’m an innocent child with no worries or biases or political opinions. I’m convinced the score is brilliant and happy that it intertwined with my memory so magically! 😍😍😍
Please can you react to "Cinderella 3 : a twist in time" ? It actually expands upon the few characteristics given in this movie , while still holding true to the original feel. Also has an interesting plot of "What If..."
I so hope you do Sleeping Beauty. It’s my favourite disney movie and the artwork is gorgeous, it’s really stylised to fit medieval art styles and honestly almost every frame could actually be just a beautiful still image.
I believe Cinderella's dress change was Walts favourite piece of animation. Another thing I heard is the song bit "sweet nightingale" with Cinderella, the singer harmonized with herself to achieve the layered effect. As for you question of Disney and ghibli. Disney was first and I heard once that I think it was studio ghibli was inspired by western animation.
@@whitenoisereacts they might have played off each other at one point or another, but I don't think so. Disney has a pretty (patent?) Animation style and approach to the whole process and is very different when compared to Eastern animation. The character designs and facial movements being a big one. Something also interesting is the rotoscoping. It's used a lot in this film but used tactfully. Cinderella, lady Termane and the prince are heavily rotoscoped but it fits their characters personalities while the more goofy characters like the step sisters and the king are full out animated from scratch to emphasize their animated personalities lol. Please consider (if you already havent) watch Tarzan I think it came out in 1998 or 99. Amazing use of 3d backgrounds and amazing animation. And fun fact! My professor in backgrounds did most of the backgrounds for that movie. Her work is amazing .
I heard this theory that after the stepsisters tore up Cinderella's gown (which was her mother's gown and the only thing she had left of hers), Cinderella ran off to the woods and took her own life. The scene with the Fairy Godmother coming down from the sky is her guardian angel coming to take her off to the afterlife. Everything that happens afterwards is her "limbo" - Or transitional period where she makes peace with life so she can ride off into that final sunset with her Prince... Also, the Prince may be deceased as well and the Ball was thrown in tribute to him. Which was why the King was incredibly sad and a little much to handle. He was going through the grieving process.
Cinderella 2 and 3 are....something to say the least, 3 I've personally never watched but heard that it was actually pretty good. Cinderella 2 were like a bunch of vignettes.
To answer your questions: Cinderella is from 1950, Ghibli started in the 1980s, so no, they are even remotely in the same time frame. Back then the only other big animator was active in Europe, and he focussed on stop motion. Otherwise Disney was nearly the only game in town, at least in terms of movies. And yes, it is hand drawn. The last movie Disney released which was completely hand drawn is Sleeping Beauty, which was released in 1959 (and might be the pinacle of this particular style of animation). Cinderella is also the first movie where we get to see the genius of Mary Blair.
Cinderella It's one of my favorite animations and brings me a lot of nostalgia. I watched a lot when I was a child with my sister, I watched until I knew the lines and got sick. Cinderella It's a classic, everyone who likes animation or art should watch it💙
Yes! More og animations please!! It's really interesting the "input" you guys give... and also your reaction to something I basically grew up watching... XD! ...and traditional animation is just my favorite~ ^^b
Versions where she's more passive aren't usually my favorite but in this version, if she wasn't more passive to begin with, the scene where she pulls out the slipper and has that smug look on her face (which is my favorite part) wouldn't be as impactful, so it works for me.
Disney's animators were amazing in this and to answer the question of layering they drew everything in the far back then laid a new sheet and basically by the end it was flipped thru and you saw the scene build... But they were still doing story boards then so these movies took some time like snow white was his first and it was released in 37 but when he first created it, many turned it down or said he couldn't get it done...then Pinocchio in 1940, fantasia the same year and then The reluctant dragon in 1941.
How they did the layering of each background element is DIsney invented a sort of glass layering so they could lay one element on each layer and have the camera on top. as the photo moves the layers would move up or be taken away. A good example of why it was made is because one of the older short they were wanting to zoom in, but the moon was getting larger as they zoomed, and IRL that doesnt happen. So thus the layering glass was created. I wish i could remember the devices name right now!
The king is EXACTLY like my mother 🤦♀️ she said "I want grandbabies! I don't care who, heck I'll pick one for you!!!" And then there is me 21 and not wanting kids😅😆
I would love to see your reactions more classic Disney, especially to Sleeping Beauty and Fantasia... two of the greatest pieces of animation ever put to film.
Some of the most iconic Disney animation scenes are from Fantasia, well worth a watch. It isn't many people's favourite, and it early bankrupted Disney but had grown much in popularity over the intervening years. It was an experiment to give free reign to the animators and have them animate musical scores as they saw them wit no actual story.
A lot of people misunderstand Cinderella as a Gold Digger who went to the ball to get a Prince but the big misunderstanding is she just wanted ONE PERFECT NIGHT where she wasn't a servant or a step daughter. She wanted one sparkling beautiful night away from her home. She wasn't even looking for the Prince when she arrived at the Ball she was just in awe of everything and when she leaves she says "Oh I- I haven't met the Prince!" meaning she had no idea she was with the Prince the entire night! And the fact that she was so thankful for that one night and the Glass Slipper was proof of her happiness was all that she needed. Just one beautiful memory that could never be tarnished to continue her life with.
STRAIGHT FACTS!
Also people saying that she needed a man to get out of her family situation and couldn't save herself - they have no idea what it's like to be abused since childhood and also that back then, there was no life outside of family: you either married into a family or stayed in the one you were born in. It was rare for a husband to live in his wife's family. Those were the times, women outside a family struggled more with survival
Wait.... what kind of twisted, bitter, person sees Cinderella and thinks..gold digger? That's insane!
It's more than Cinderella just wanting to party, the heart of the story how her persistent goodness brought her before the prince. That even the animals and a fairy godmother worked for her good to escape her mother.
Not to mention, she managed to keep positive despite her abusive upbringing, and unlike the remake, she did try to get out of her tower asking the mice to get the dog and everything to get out, she didn't just dance around. The remake tried to make her strong, but made her seem weaker. This old cinderella was trapped and could not leave by choice and was conditioned as a child to obey while the new one she can leave whenever she wanted, but never did until literally a prince came to get her.
The woman who voiced Cinderella actually got Alzheimers towards the end of her life, when she would be in a fit of confusion, the nurses could play the record of Cinderella singing and it would help calm her down.
Awwww that’s so sweet!
That’s so sad and sweet.
Fascinating 🤔
That's interesting.
Yeah 😢 she said her voice was beautiful and wondered who she was😭I mean…. Typically people with Alzheimer‘s forget more recent things 1st so…
Considering that it was the 50's, it was all done by hand. No computers around that time could do more than act as a calculator :)
man how tffff
This kind of animation is amazing

The songs back then were so nice and relaxing. They really have a softness and a charm to them, much like the animation
The music makes me feel nostalgic in a way like no other!

The Stepmother's voice actress also did Maleficent in Sleeping Beauty. She really did the top tier villains.

I think that's the name
And another connection between the two films, the Fairy Godmother is voiced by Verna Felton who also played Flora.
And she was also the voice madam leota in the haunted mansion at Disneyland.

The dress transformation scene is Walt Disney’s favorite animated moment.
Marc Davis was the lead Animator for Cinderella the character and he also said that it was his favorite scene to animate.
Once I think about it, Cinderella is an educated young lady who probably waltzed as a child with her father.

Yes--- the gown _is_ white. Had to laugh at your editorial remark there about it.
Studio Ghibli was founded in 1985, Disney's Snow White was created in 1937.
Miyazaki was inspired by the Disney classics, but he wasn't really into the whole romantic princess thing and wanted to focus on the blooming independence of a child growing up as a regular kid. Regular folk in an irregular world.
Disney started producing animated films in 1922.

When they mentioned them starting around the same time I immediately pulled this video up on my phone to comment. Glad someone else beat me to it, lol.
My two favorite animation studios!
That dress ripping scene makes me tear up a bit from the horror.
Imagine in real life that would be a terrible traumatic experience for a young woman to be attacked like that. The step-fam are monsters
What's worse, it use to be her mother's. So they destroyed something truly precious.
Still can't watch it.
The scary thing about the dress being ripped is telling us that attack wasn’t the only time she’s experienced being man handled by them
I would love to see more old Disney movies! Even stuff like Alice in wonderland or Peter Pan would be cool, it doesn’t have to be princesses.
yes!!!
It doesn’t have to be western or European neither
@@mattybrunolucaszeneresalas9072 agreed!
@@mejrpi5like
Most of the human parts were filmed real life before they animated over them which is why a lot of their movements and details are so realistic, especially the stepmother. The lady who voiced her also acted the real life parts for the animators to draw out. They did this to make the process go faster and save money from having to reanimate anything that may not have worked.
Sure, but it's still full animation and not just copy & paste photographic processing like say some of Ralph Bakshi's stuff. The scenes Disney filmed were just a reference starting point. Shooting live reference photos was also something used by many famous illustrators like Norman Rockwell, N. C. Wyeth, and Gil Evgren.
They did not use rotoscoping or animate over live acting. They filmed actors to get a sense of movement and then animated from memory. Rotoscoping and animating are two very different methods.
@@paintedjaguar ah I misunderstood OP explained it as if they animated over it rather just referencing that’s my bad
@@paulthebohemian I misunderstood with the way OP explained it it sounded like they were talking about rotoscoping and not just referencing
“The Emperors New Groove”is the funniest, most underrated Disney movie, give that one a try.
Oooh yes!!
Up!
YES THE BEST
OOH, YES PLEASE!!!
Definitely David Spades best movie!! Super hilarious
3:40 Disney's people designed the multiplane camera system, with a camera at the top, shooting down through layers of glass. The glass sheets could be moved up and down and side to side, and each layer would hold artwork on clear cells. The bottom layer would be the background, and shots were planned to move each plane at different speeds and directions to create the desired effect. BAMBI probably features the most amazing, subtle use of it, but the first short using it was a Silly Symphony short called THE OLD MILL (1937), which won an Oscar. It was also used for some big establishing shots in SNOW WHITE & THE 7 DWARFS (1937) and PINOCCHIO (1940). CINDERELLA was made on a budget, so there are just a few simple shots like this, using it.
Yes, yes.. Great comment. The process of "rotoscoping" which Disney animators used to capture Cinderella's movements are still breathtaking, even 70 years later. I think of rotoscoping as an early form of motion capture..
I thought it might be that, but Ninetailedbrush thought it was something else
You can see the camera set up at the Disney Family Museum in San Francisco. Highly recommend it.
@@whitenoisereacts There was no computer capable of any 3D animation in 1950. That was all hand made.
First polygonal animation (really simple hand) is from 1972. You can find that here on YT.
@@dacsus rotoscope isn't 3d animation. It's, I believe, sort of like tracing. It's when you trace over a series of photos. What the other poster was referring too is it sort of is like "stone age" mocap as you do capture live animations frame by frame but instead of a computer tracking and recording it, you have to do it by hand frame by frame.
edit: I think I worded this weirdly. i only meant that rotoscoping reminds the other poster of mocap in the barest of terms. because for both technics, you're copying from a live object, just one uses a computer to render and draw out the frame (data) while the other is like that, just instead of a computer, it is an animator using a pencil to "capture" the frame (data) from an already captured video/photo.
I hate that people think that Cinderella's dream was to marry a prince. What she actually wished for was a night to go to the castle. And she didn't even recognize the prince at the ball.
I heard that the transformation scene of Cinderella is walt Disney's most favorite scene in animation ever at that time
I really respect Disney's cinderella. the animation as always spot on, but also how mature it was. The message I get from this is to be kind. Treat people with decency and respect. ( even if they don't always respect) in even that will be give to you.
Another great reaction. I look forward to every time James says, "So yeah." 😂 I really really love this film. I love all of the characters. This Cinderella gets a really bad rap nowadays but she is one of my favorites. She had a very abusive upbringing but remains hopeful and kind to others. Despite popular belief she wasn't "waiting around" for a prince. She wanted a night out and took the initiative ro even tell her stepmother she should go. She didn't even know the man she danced with was the prince until the next day. I enjoy how much the sound and music enhances the movements within the film.
Yeah, just an amazing film. I refuse to listen to the haters!!
@@whitenoisereacts James why is there a mouse in the Stepmother's pocket
Fact that I kinda cried over when I first found out was there was a song written and recorded for the film (but was cut) called “The Dress That My Mother Wore” which basically told us that her mother’s dress that she was planning on wearing to the ball (before her stepsisters destroyed it) was actually her mother’s wedding dress.
Something interesting I noticed with this movie is that we focus on the mice a lot more than other animal "sidekicks" in Disney princess movies. Like they have entire scenes that are just the mice and I can't really think of any other Disney princess movies that have entire scenes with just the animal characters (not counting Princess and the Frog because that's a whole different situation lol).
I think the mice here are more involved with the plot than any other movie, but it’s not the only older Disney film that has scenes dedicated to animal side characters. Like in Sleeping Beauty, with the animals in the woods. Animals behaving like humans, or managing to do human tasks as animals, are cute and make for cheerful/funny skits.
Yeah, think about the time it came from, most popular animations before were little comedy pieces. There was also a lot of focus on the dwarves in Snow White. It’s interesting to see how the trends change in animated movies, you’ll also notice “I wish” songs instead of “I want” songs like you see starting in the Disney renaissance.
The team at Disney Studios must have figured out that a fairy tale feature film needs some entertainment in it, not just the basic tale itself. So in addition to songs and music, they added the comedy element and the amusing/charming activities of the mice and birds (mostly the mice ... and also Lucifer). I can't imagine this film without the antics of Cinderella's pals Gus and Jacques; by the time they're hauling that key up the stairs we are totally rooting for them to save the day. It would certainly be a very different movie without them.
Disney animators used a technique called "rotoscoping" to capture the precise movements of the actress playing Cinderella. The animators used this process for Snow White as well as other films. They were basically doing an early form of motion capture but with a pioneering film process that would guide the animators through the painstaking and difficult process of animating human movements.
Upon seeing this masterpiece again, I'm still amazed at the beautiful backgrounds and the multiplane camera technique. A tour de force of animation.
Love your channel, great commentary, thanks for sharing this journey through film history with us.
Take it into account, it's Disney,. The man who gave us the animated features. He used innovation. He is the MAN
the scene where the stepsisters rip her dress to shreds literally brings me to tears every time, it's so awful. animation can be so powerful.
I think you guys would love Sleeping Beauty!! The colors are so beautiful!
vouch! sleeping beauty is a really good one! they'd like the dragon
YESSSSS, PLEASE
Studio Ghibli was founded in 1985 :) I do adore the classic Disney films; there is a soothing and sweet quality to them. Not to mention that as you mentioned this is old school animation and there's this sense of awe and respect just from knowing how old these films are and what they were able to accomplish without our technical advances of today.
I'd love to see how y'all like Sleeping Beauty since the backgrounds imitate the style & perspective of Medieval tapestries. (Also a lot of the story in the movie is adapted from the ballet by Petipa, and they used Tchaikovsky's ballet score so it has a very different feel to it!)
You should really try watching the Making of a Masterpiece documentary on Cinderella. It's got tons of info on animation, voice acting, musical score, and lots more. There's a couple of them here on RUclips. The early Disney movies ' making of ' features are pretty fascinating.
Glad you guys had fun with this one. It deserves it's place in animation history.
fun fact: in the original cinderella, the step sisters chopped off pieces of their feet to make the slipper fit. also cinderella was protected by magic which is why no one recognized her and it’s why the slipper only fits her
That's true to the Brothers Grimm but theirs was not the original. Disney's is specifically based off Perrault's version which is about a century older.
However Cinderella has existed in some form since Antiquity.
I really enjoy watching old disney cartoons. They’re so magical and charming. Cinderella is my comfort movie since childhood💕
People often mistake Cinderellas niceness with weakness but it's really strength. Cinderella was dealt a bad hand and did her best with it without being mean. You can't always control how people treat you but you can control your own response to it. The trope of Cinderella waiting at home for the prince to save her isn't true, she saved herself.
I love when the credits are at the beginning especially with the music and pictures! It really feels like classic Disney when I see it. I think my favorite beginning credits is from Sleeping Beauty tho, Cinderella is up there with it.
Also I believe Cinderella’s dress is actually white/silver and not blue. I think they only made her dress blue in merchandise and at the parks due to the fact they didn’t want it to look like a wedding dress.
And a white dress for little kids would most likely get dirty very quickly. I love the shimmering white ball gown in this movie. And the choker Cinderella wears is so elegant.
I'd highly recommend Fantasia. They pulled out all the stops and experimented with a ton of new techniques and styles.
On Technicolor:
Disney Studios acquired exclusive 3-color Technicolor rights (for animation) in 1932 through 1935 (and used it until 1978) which gave Disney films a lustre and gorgeousness that no other animation studio (using the earlier 2-color process) could match. The first Disney short in color was the Oscar winning Flowers and Trees (1932) from their Silly Symphony series.
There’s a saying that I love about Cinderella and it’s just that she never asked or expected to fall in love she really just wanted a night out at the ball lol
The prince in a nutshell: Says he loves Cinderella, has to put a shoe on every girl in the kingdom to find her
Fun fact: The actress who plays Lady Tremaine (the stepmother), Eleanor Audley is also the voice actress behind Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty
One thing I love about the animation is the scene where the sisters rip up the dress. The colours progressively get both darker and change to red tints, before promptly snapping back when Tremaine speaks. Probably why it's so intense despite the action itself being so simple!
Also someone had to draw and animate the sister's butts when they walk in their own dresses :p
Love your channel! Fun fact: the dress transformation was Walt Disney’s fav moment of animation ever!
9:39 I also thought those were pieces of cheese when I was a kid, but looking more closely at their shape now, I see that they're actually corn kernels.
Loved the reaction! I do wish you had shown my favorite part! Drizella trying on the slipper: "Of all the stupid, little, idiots! I'll do it myself....get away from me!" She's such a miniature version of her mom and I love it 😂
The Narrator at the beginning is Betty Lou Gerson who would later do Cruella de Vil (and Mrs. Birdwell) in One Hundred and One Dalmatians. Such a contrast between her two voice roles (though Cruella does possess some eccentric charms in a couple of scenes, especially the beginning, she is mean and cruel).
Sleeping Beauty is another good classic, the colors and animation for its time are really cool
If you look at the title on the sheet music when the conductor is starting to play the waltz, it does say So This Is Love after the music piece and the upcoming song.
I love how genuine James happiness is. It makes the reactions way better.
It's so cool to rewatch the movie, the animations are so good! I can't believe its been so long.
The immense knowledge on this movie's animation, though. I'm impressed . . . LOL, watching James talk to the mice characters -- I just can't 🤣🤣 And that TEACUP SCENE with Gus Gus is just EPIC.
I love how you guys delve into classic animation. I know the modern Disney movies look more realistic and feature a wider variety of characters but for me the classic Disney is the best Disney. I remember having all the classic films on VHS as a kid in the 90s and I honestly never knew they were made so much earlier than that until I was older. Keep it up analyzing these iconic films!
Thanks, James! Thanks, Ninetailedbrush! 💎 This one is my favorite animated version... and my favorite live-action version was actually released September of 2021. 🐭
"That's what happens when you feed the pigeons at Costco" xD idk why but that made me snort-laugh lmao
Lmao, it’s true
As a kid, I would always forget how old this movie was. Love the animation. The animals are all so adorable too. I honestly love the cat, Lucifer. 😅💖 Yes to more classic Disney btw!
I just love watching even the fabric of her ball gown move when she dances
I love your reaction to seeing Anastasia and Driella trying on the shoe. In the german stories the stepmother forces the girls to cut their feet to fit the shoe.
The Disney Team, back in the 50’s did love Cinderella, for being their first major box office hit after World War 2!
Walt Disney Studios was in deep debt and close to shutting down up until this film. Luckily, the success of Cinderella kept the studio open.
I love that you guys speak to the technical aspects of the animation, great reaction!
OMG YES, please do more Disney! the og ones are the best, i don't care about the haters.
There are real actors playing the parts then they were used as the animation template. Actors were filmed on large soundstages mouthing to a playback of the dialogue soundtrack. You can see how life-like some of the movements are.
"That dress on the left is so ugly. What is that color combination?" Seattle Seahawks want a word with you.
Cinderella, Ariel, Mulan and Pocahontas are my favorite Disney princess. I agree with you, Cinderella is the sweetest person, I always wish to have that kind of heart.
Cinderella 3 is my favorite
I love it
It's funny that you thought of the Stepmother as almost like the Evil Queen. I don't recall if she voiced that one, but she was definitely the voice of the original Maleficent. Most of these super old Disney films have a lot of crossover. The king here is a king in Sleeping Beauty. The Fairy Godmother is... I think one of the three good fairies, Flora I believe. And that's just from recognizing voices this run through.
Robin Hood, The Sword in the Stone, Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland, and Sleeping Beauty are all ones I'd recommend/request. And for a more modern but still considered 'classic' these days, The Great Mouse Detective stands as the only animated Disney film with burlesque dancer mice. Do with that as you will (personally I find it hysterical).
You guys should definitely react to original versions of old Disney rather than Blu-Ray remastered versions (if you can find them!), tons of detailing and line-work is lost from the original animation when they "cleaned it up". You might also notice her dress color is pretty inconsistent in this version, ranging from silver to bright blue in some scenes. The original dress was silver, but when they remastered it, they changed the color in some scenes to match the marketing blue color-scheme of the character.
I wish they’d just leave the color consistent and keep the marketing color the same. Pretty disrespectful to alter the colors so much
I actually got to meet Drezella ( Stepsister in green and black hair) and she signed my copy of the movie and two vinyls
Sometimes when fabric folds and flows in these old movies, it's the best thing ever.
It's so nice y'all watched this, just a lovely film done so well in many ways. My favorite Disney classic is- Sleeping Beauty! I remember as a young teen when they had re- released it to theaters for a few months and watching the scene where Maleficent turns into the dragon was just freaking awesome! And it had my head totally flooding her rise to the top of the movie screen. It totally enthralled me. I love the movie as a whole and how well it's done for it's time.
Was fun watching how much you enjoyed this one!☺👸🏰💒
Agreed, the music is lovely too. What did you think of the live action move Maleficient?
@@abigailorabby22 There were some aspects of it I liked but really hated that they turned Aurora's Father into the bad guy. SB is close to my heart because as a kid, my sisters and I decided to choose a Disney Princess for our persona. I being the eldest got first pick and chose Aurora. Back then ages ago you only had so many to pick from but SB was always my fave. Only with me, SB would have had dark brown hair lol. 😊 Anyways, the 2nd Maleficent movie I liked better. Though they are ones I feel the desire to watch more than the couple of times I did.
@@gailjohnston1248 aww, how cute 🥰 who did your sisters dress up as? Why didn’t my sister and I think of that lol but we would often reenact/imitate the hilarious parts of Disney princess movies (like Snow White running through the woods 🌲 🌲 and the mice singing in Cinderella 🐭 🎤). Fun times ☺️ Yea, go for it! I personally would have enjoyed having a dark haired Aurora to relate to (no offense to blonde hair). Yesss, I totally agree the second one also developed Maleficent’s character more and no one in that movie is fully good nor fully bad. It’s something they’ve been doing more of in tv shows and movies nowadays - developing the villain’s side of the story - and I totally love seeing that. Once Upon A Time and Joker are also good examples of this. 👏🏼
@@abigailorabby22 Thanks! We didn't dress up as them, it was just a alter ego sort of thing of claiming our fave Princess. And funny thing is, it continued later with my Niece and she got 4 of my Cousins, daughters as kids to pick their Princess lol. (I never got married or had any kids, nor did my other sister.) My twin sisters, picked Cinderella and Snow White.
When i was young, Cinderella was my favorite Disney princess 😍
Watching this movie help me to feel young again 😄
Great reaction, as always guys!
I really appreciate your old Disney movies réactions and analysis; merci pour votre enthousiasme et votre travail 👍😊
Loved this!! One of my favourite classics!
If you guys have seen Sleeping Beauty i highly highly recommend watching Maleficent with Angelina Jolie, they're both great!
The layers were done using what is called a multiplane camera. I could try to explain it, but I highly recommend looking it up. In fact it would make a pretty cool reaction video. Basically they were shot from above through layers of glass with the different layers of the backdrops painted on them. I would watch a video about it to get more information.
Ooh - foreshadowing at 4:38 and 11:05!
Thanks for posting - this was a lot of fun!
Snow White and Sleeping Beauty are both GORGEOUS. I'd watch reactions : )
That was so interesting! Please do more of these!!
If they liked the animation in this movie then they will be blown away with the animation in Sleeping Beauty lol!
While I can't speak for Miyazaki inspiration, Disney did inspire tezuka the creator of astro boy and Kimball the white lion which would be the founding basis of anime. So in a lot turn of events Disney's influence on animation ironically inspired anime
This was my favorite Disney movie as a child. I had it on VHS (along with a bunch of other Disney movies) and my parents worked out a system where I would watch the left-most VHS on the shelf, then move it over to the right after it was done so that I would rotate watching through them each day. I got in trouble more than once for moving Cinderella to the left when my parents weren't looking, thinking I was slick xD
I know you don’t take suggestions but Pleaseee do Tarzan sometime in the future. I love the animation in that movie.
The score confuses me sometimes with its perfection. I can’t decipher between nostalgia and brilliance except when I haven’t seen or heard the movies in years and then it comes on whilst playing movies for my child and I’m transported through time and space and I’m an innocent child with no worries or biases or political opinions. I’m convinced the score is brilliant and happy that it intertwined with my memory so magically! 😍😍😍
Cinderella named the mouse after Caesar Augustus, also known as Octavian, so really the nickname Gus is short for "Augustus" ^^;
Please can you react to "Cinderella 3 : a twist in time" ? It actually expands upon the few characteristics given in this movie , while still holding true to the original feel. Also has an interesting plot of "What If..."
I so hope you do Sleeping Beauty. It’s my favourite disney movie and the artwork is gorgeous, it’s really stylised to fit medieval art styles and honestly almost every frame could actually be just a beautiful still image.
anyone who hates cinderella probably doesn't have any dreams
I believe Cinderella's dress change was Walts favourite piece of animation. Another thing I heard is the song bit "sweet nightingale" with Cinderella, the singer harmonized with herself to achieve the layered effect.
As for you question of Disney and ghibli. Disney was first and I heard once that I think it was studio ghibli was inspired by western animation.
Oh wow!! I would’ve totally guessed the opposite
@@whitenoisereacts they might have played off each other at one point or another, but I don't think so. Disney has a pretty (patent?) Animation style and approach to the whole process and is very different when compared to Eastern animation. The character designs and facial movements being a big one. Something also interesting is the rotoscoping. It's used a lot in this film but used tactfully. Cinderella, lady Termane and the prince are heavily rotoscoped but it fits their characters personalities while the more goofy characters like the step sisters and the king are full out animated from scratch to emphasize their animated personalities lol.
Please consider (if you already havent) watch Tarzan I think it came out in 1998 or 99. Amazing use of 3d backgrounds and amazing animation. And fun fact! My professor in backgrounds did most of the backgrounds for that movie. Her work is amazing .
I heard this theory that after the stepsisters tore up Cinderella's gown (which was her mother's gown and the only thing she had left of hers), Cinderella ran off to the woods and took her own life. The scene with the Fairy Godmother coming down from the sky is her guardian angel coming to take her off to the afterlife. Everything that happens afterwards is her "limbo" - Or transitional period where she makes peace with life so she can ride off into that final sunset with her Prince... Also, the Prince may be deceased as well and the Ball was thrown in tribute to him. Which was why the King was incredibly sad and a little much to handle. He was going through the grieving process.
That's quite a theory I've never thought of that before now I wonder if you were right I kind of think so too
I hope you guys watch the sequels of Cinderella, especially the 3rd one. The humor is iconic! 😂😂😂
You have to look up the multiplane camera. It was developed by Disney to achieve the layered effect
Please react to Cinderella 3: A Twist In Time! It's so so good and the Prince plays a much larger role of fighting for his love!
Cinderella 2 and 3 are....something to say the least, 3 I've personally never watched but heard that it was actually pretty good. Cinderella 2 were like a bunch of vignettes.
You should watch The Sleeping Beauty!!! The animation is GORGEOUS!! The story is epic too! A classic!! 👁👄👁👌✨🤩👑
Im pretty sure the "layers" 3:40 are cel animation its hand painted clear sheets layered on top of each other. I have one from the movie peter pan!
To answer your questions: Cinderella is from 1950, Ghibli started in the 1980s, so no, they are even remotely in the same time frame. Back then the only other big animator was active in Europe, and he focussed on stop motion. Otherwise Disney was nearly the only game in town, at least in terms of movies.
And yes, it is hand drawn. The last movie Disney released which was completely hand drawn is Sleeping Beauty, which was released in 1959 (and might be the pinacle of this particular style of animation).
Cinderella is also the first movie where we get to see the genius of Mary Blair.
I would love to see you guys react to the live action. I think it's one of the few remakes that did the original justice.
Again, you guys nailed it! So many insights and appreciations and nuances. Thanks!
Cinderella It's one of my favorite animations and brings me a lot of nostalgia. I watched a lot when I was a child with my sister, I watched until I knew the lines and got sick. Cinderella It's a classic, everyone who likes animation or art should watch it💙
Yes! More og animations please!! It's really interesting the "input" you guys give... and also your reaction to something I basically grew up watching... XD!
...and traditional animation is just my favorite~ ^^b
Versions where she's more passive aren't usually my favorite but in this version, if she wasn't more passive to begin with, the scene where she pulls out the slipper and has that smug look on her face (which is my favorite part) wouldn't be as impactful, so it works for me.
Disney's animators were amazing in this and to answer the question of layering they drew everything in the far back then laid a new sheet and basically by the end it was flipped thru and you saw the scene build... But they were still doing story boards then so these movies took some time like snow white was his first and it was released in 37 but when he first created it, many turned it down or said he couldn't get it done...then Pinocchio in 1940, fantasia the same year and then The reluctant dragon in 1941.
How they did the layering of each background element is DIsney invented a sort of glass layering so they could lay one element on each layer and have the camera on top. as the photo moves the layers would move up or be taken away. A good example of why it was made is because one of the older short they were wanting to zoom in, but the moon was getting larger as they zoomed, and IRL that doesnt happen. So thus the layering glass was created. I wish i could remember the devices name right now!
There are some great shows about animation back in the day on Disney+!
The king is EXACTLY like my mother 🤦♀️ she said "I want grandbabies! I don't care who, heck I'll pick one for you!!!"
And then there is me 21 and not wanting kids😅😆
I would love to see your reactions more classic Disney, especially to Sleeping Beauty and Fantasia... two of the greatest pieces of animation ever put to film.
These Disney reactions always make me so happy lol
Some of the most iconic Disney animation scenes are from Fantasia, well worth a watch. It isn't many people's favourite, and it early bankrupted Disney but had grown much in popularity over the intervening years. It was an experiment to give free reign to the animators and have them animate musical scores as they saw them wit no actual story.
