Cinderella Anniversary Edition is now available on Blu-ray, DVD and Digital HD.
As part of the Disney Signature Collection and in honor of Cinderella's 70th anniversary, Disney has released a special Cinderella Anniversary Edition. Cinderella aficionados can now enjoy two hours of new bonus extras.
Cinderella is one of those beloved Disney animated films that become an essential part of your childhood. It's a classic film about love, family and friendship.
When Cinderella's mother dies, her father, a wealthy aristocrat, decides to remarry, so someone can look after his daughter. His new wife, Lady Tremaine, already has two daughters from her previous marriage. She shows her cruel nature when the aristocrat dies.
Jealous of Cinderella's beauty, her stepmother and stepsisters force her to become the maid, giving her chores day in and day out.
When the King announces he is throwing a ball to find a suitable wife for his son Prince Charming, all the single women in the kingdom start getting ready. Cinderella, however, is given extra chores by her stepmother to make it almost impossible for her to attend the ball.
Just as she's about to give up, Cinderella's fairy godmother appears to make her wishes come true, creating a gorgeous ball gown and glass slippers to turn Cinderella into a stunning princess until midnight. This is one fairy tale that never gets old no matter how many times you watch it. It gives you goosebumps, it makes you sing out loud, and most importantly, it reminds you to never stop believing in your dreams. ~Marriska Fernandes
