The Witching Hour, 1 May 2008 



Author: w from Earth 



The famous fairy tale, appropriately starring Mary Pickford (as Cinderella), with Owen Moore (as Prince Charming). Ms.
Pickford's performance is terrific; in many of her early films, her acting ability is most clearly evident. Mr. Moore
was one of Pickford's three successful actor husbands; he is charming as her Prince. This film seems adds a lot of story
which is not in later re-makes; and, most of it would have been well worth repeating. However, this version skimps on
background and characterization; perhaps, the filmmakers supposed everyone knew the basic story. If you don't know
"Cinderella", it is possible to figure out who's who, and what's going on. Though, you won't believe how
skillfully Pickford catches rodents. Great parts: Pickford and Moore romancing before the clock strikes midnight (or, is
that noon?); and, Pickford's "clock dream". 



The accompanying soundtrack, by Donald Sosin and Joanna Seaton, is exemplary.

Fine Telling of the Immortal Fairy Tale, 25 June 2006



Author: H from United States



Virtually unseen for almost a century, the 1914 film Cinderella was one of Mary Pickford's very first feature films and
was a key film in her climb to her place in the hearts of moviegoers as "America's Sweetheart". The movie has
resurfaced as a bonus feature on the DVD to Pickford's THROUGH THE BACK DOOR.



Pickford stars as the heroine of this beloved fairy tale well-known to probably every human over the age of two. It's
quite a surprise to see Mary, usually cast as a fearless spitfire, in the passive role of gentle, mistreated Cinderella
but she gives a lovely performance and is quite moving and endearing. The movie also offers a rare chance to see
Pickford's first husband, early screen star Owen Moore, cast as Prince Charming. Most of the rest of the cast have minor
screen credits (it was apparently quite difficult to get regular supporting work in the early silent film era) but do
their jobs well. Regarding the comment by another reviewer, I do believe the stepsisters are played by women however
they are made up to look as haggish as possible with obvious putty noses and I suspect their over-sized feet for the
"trying on the glass slipper scenes" made have been doubled by men.



This movie is quite charming and romantic although there are a few good laughs, notably when Cinderella's Fairy
Godmother instructs her to round up some mice and rats, Cindy clearly is wondering if this is going to be worth the
effort. Another hearty laugh comes at the step-family's expense after Cinderella is revealed to be the mystery lady the
Prince is seeking in which a wiseacre voices a suggestion that probably crossed many of the moviegoers minds.



The print quality of this film is fairly good for a film less than a decade from it's Centennial and the original score
by Donald Sosin is wonderful and completely appropriate. Cinderella is a fairy tale that enchants every generation and
this fragile silent beautifully captures the other world quality of this timeless tale.

Good Version, 26 February 2008

Author: ME from Louisville, KY



Cinderella (1914) 



*** (out of 4) 



Sweet and charming version of the famous story has Mary Pickford in the title role. The film clocks in at just over
fifty-minutes and there isn't a single minute that's wasted in telling the story. The film doesn't try anything too
special but instead relies on Pickford and her incredible charm, which jumps off the screen. I believe Pickford was one
of the most natural actresses in the history of cinema and her innocent charm is on full display here. The film has a
very sweet tone and doesn't forget the fact that it's a fairy tale. Another interesting aspect is Cinderella's nightmare
of the clock when she doesn't arrive home until after midnight. Some nice comic touches as well and two incredibly ugly
stepsisters.

Good Version For Its Time, With A Good Role For Pickford, 30 December 2005

Author: SL from Ohio



In its time, this must have been the longest and most ambitious screen version of the familiar story of
"Cinderella". So many later versions have been made with the advantage of more recent technology that a 1914
version could never be expected to meet the same standards, but it's a good version for its time, and it stars Mary
Pickford in a good role for her. Other than moving a bit slowly at times, almost everything about the feature is of good
quality by the standards of its era.



Pickford is certainly well-cast as Cinderella, in one of her earliest full-length movie roles. It's no accident that she
would eventually play characters like Pollyanna, Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm, and so many other similar roles. She was
able to make such characters instantly sympathetic and believable, and her attractive appearance and engaging
personality worked well in many different situations. Her later features would give her a wider variety of material to
work with than this does, but she does well here with each scene.



Owen Moore, who was married to Pickford at the time, plays Prince Charming. Moore does not have much range as an actor,
but he has a good silent screen presence, and that is what this role most calls for. The two mean-spirited stepsisters
seem to be played (despite what the posted cast list may imply) by two male actors, giving the characters a humorously
ugly appearance and humorously ungainly movements.



There are numerous visual effects, and director James Kirkwood made an interesting choice by filming most of them with
gradual dissolves rather than with the stop-motion, sudden change technique that was more common. Neither method is
necessarily better or worse; they are just different in the effect that each creates. There are also some good dream
effects, especially an amusing sequence after Cinderella misses her midnight deadline.



For the most part, only silent movie fans will have any significant interest in this. But if you can evaluate it by the
standards of its own time, it's a pleasant little movie and a chance to see the charming Mary Pickford while she was in
the process of developing her many talents. 



It's Cinderella with a bunch of improvements over other versions I have seen., 25 June 2009



Author: p from Bradenton, Florida



*** This comment may contain spoilers ***



This film is included as a DVD extra for another one of Mary Pickford's films, THROUGH THE BACK DOOR. Both have very
well-preserved prints and nice musical scores--making this DVD well worth having.



In many ways, this film differs from the traditional Cinderalla story. However, these differences generally help the
story and make for an excellent film.



Unlike the more traditional story, this time the Fairy Godmother comes to Cinderalla before the ball. She's dressed like
an old lady and Cinderalla is kind to her. So, the fairy and all invisible fairies nearby all decide they should do
something nice for her.



Additionally, I was surprised to see that she actually met the Prince before the ball as well. While she was gathering
wood, she slipped and the Prince came to her aid--even though all the noblemen with him seemed to think that Cinderalla
was just some dumb peasant. I liked this, as it game the Prince more depth. I mean, think about it, in most versions he
sees her just once at the ball and pledges to marry her because of love at first sight! What a dope! But here, there is
a greater depth to him and the story.



Naturally, the Fairy Godmother does show up and makes Cinderella beautiful for the ball. And, naturally, the Prince is
quite smitten with her. And, naturally, she runs away and the Prince vows to marry the woman whose foot fits the magic
slipper. All this is pretty standard, but you certainly could NOT expect them to change these details. But, in an
interesting twist, the Prince immediately recognizes Cinderella when he finds her dressed in rags and is delighted.
Sure, he puts the shoe on her, but this is after he's taken her to the castle to show his father, the King. This, also,
seemed like a nice way to tell the story. The Prince in this tale is no vacuous pretty-boy! 



One thing that the story did not do (and I doubt any movie ever did show this), but according to my daughter who studies
folklore in college, in one version the wicked step-sisters do some insane things to try to claim the shoe is theirs.
They saw their toes off and horribly deform themselves to try to get it to fit!! I would just love, for once, to have
that included in a film--though it might just traumatize the kids watching it.



Overall, you might be surprised to hear this, but I truly think I enjoyed this more than the more famous Disney and
Rogers-Hammerstein versions. It's sweet and well-told but unfortunately forgotten since it's "only a silent
film" as some knuckleheads might think, few will probably get around to it.

man, film makers used to have more fun., 27 December 2006



Author: c from porltand, or



Really this film isn't very good, but echoing another comment I made somewhere on here, don't you think making movies
used to be more fun? The ugly sisters played by a bunch of ridiculous men? The gaggle of silly kids that are the forest
fairies? they must have had a blast! I guess because these weren't considered art there was no pretension that they
should be classy. the tone of it was a little like a john waters film. The trick to enjoying a film like this is to
forget how important movies are to us, as people, as a culture, as individuals. I tell people I'm an independent film
maker and generally the regard that either like I must be crazy or like I'm doctor or something, which is cool, but
imagine back in the days when you'd have been treated like hustler like a pimp, how could you treat yourself that
seriously? Anyways, this movie is pretty much totally dumb, but so is Cinderella. The whole shoe thing? He falls in love
with a girl who he's never met and doesn't even get a name out of, and decides to track her down by having every woman
in the land try on her shoe? so why didn't the shoe turn back into a pumpkin or squash or whatever? no one in the
kingdom had Cinderella's shoe size? if he never met her but she was dressed like princess wouldn't it be a safe
assumption that she's not actually in your kingdom? royalty tends to know the other royalty nearby. and also if he's so
damn in love with why can't he pick out her face? it can't have looked that different without the accoutrement of the
ball. also: he's going to marry a peasant? is he crazy? the king and queen don't want him to use that marriage for
something beneficial like making peace or pooling power with allies? all the while everyone knows he probably could have
just hired poor Cinderella, put her up at the castle and had his way with her any time he felt like it, which is pretty
much what royalty did back then. for example henry the... what the crap was I saying? I got distracted. oh, yeah. I
would give anything to have worked on a movie like this. but that doesn't mean you'll enjoy the movie per Se.

Enchanted Clock, 4 February 2006

Author: t from Virginia Beach



No need to seek this out. It is mundane in every way except one.



You'll remember that a feature of the story is the clock. Our girl has to be home before midnight, her only rule. She
disobeys because she is having such a nice time.



We forgive her, because her life has been so rough, but rules is rules. She makes her escape just as the clock is
striking. But in this movie, she has nightmares about the clock, and they are pretty interesting.



First we have two mechanical bellringers moved into place to strike the bell. These, as it turns out are gnomes we have
seen before when the evil stepsisters visited a fortune teller. Since then, Cinderella has had pleasant dreams of
fairies and the bad sisters nightmares of these gnomes.



Now Cinderella is visited by these two gnomes, in a sequence labelled "the consequences of disobedience." They
strike the bell, then things go haywire and they hit each other. Then the hands go haywire, and the face itself starts
spinning. Next the clocktower itself shakes and the gnomes fall off. Wait, thats not all. There's a fantastic sequence
where the numbers on the clock face become untethered and start to roam about the face while the hands twist
radically.



Its very clever. I think both the clock and the gnomes are cinematic additions. And they do spice up the otherwise
ordinary event.



Ted's Evaluation -- 2 of 3: Has some interesting elements.
