Featured review
A Solid, If Unspectacular, Re-Telling
In this edition of Faerie Tale Theatre, the classic story of "Cinderella" is retold in traditional fashion. A little bit of humor is indeed present, but otherwise it's pretty true-to-form.
Guest stars include Jennifer Beals, Matthew "Ferris Bueller" Broderick, and Jean "Edith Bunker" Stapleton (whose fairy godmother is easily the highlight).
The humor is nice, but the terribly wooden performance from Broderick takes some of the starch out, rendering this one good but not great.
