THE CINDERELLA STORY
The basic story is very old indeed and familiar to most of us. But is it just a sweet, pretty
tale? Not in the view of Ellen Macintosh, who has written extensively about fairy tales. "This
story features the stock, two-dimensional characters of most fairy tales, and little character
development is attempted," she says. Indeed, although her comment does make one wonder
why simplicity of this sort should be out of place in a story for children. Be that as it may,
Ellen's main problem is with what the story implies. "Instead of standing up to her cruel
stepmother and absurd stepsisters, Cinderella just waits for a fairy godmother to appear and
solve her problem. But wouldn't you want a daughter of yours to show more spirit?"
The story is enduring, whatever its shortcomings, and it doesn't take much in the way
of analytical skills to see its influence on a number of recent Hollywood productions, all aimed
at girls aged five to fifteen. In these versions for the silver screen, the Cinderella character no
longer has to clean the house and has no siblings to make her life a misery, though she persists
in not showing much backbone. The character of the rich and handsome stranger, however, is
retained, and in some cases really is a prince. The role of the fairy godmother is often played
by coincidence or sheer luck; we live in an enlightened age when even very young children
might reject the notion of fairies. The wicked stepmother may be transformed into a villain of
some sort. In the majority of film versions, the heroine has a profession and is even permitted
to continue working after marrying her prince — this is the twenty — first century, after all.
Doesn't the success of these films indicate that the story has relevance to children even
today? “Yes,” admits Ellen, who sees its message as being rooted in a fundamental childhood
desire for love and attention. "Most children experience a sense of inner loneliness as they are
growing up and empathies with the protagonist who faces some sort of test or challenge.” “In
the later versions, this element is missing,” says Ellen, “and the theme of the story is simply
that a girl's role in life is to be more beautiful than other little girls so that she can carry off the
prize: the handsome prince. Is this really what we want girls to grow up believing?”
1. What is Ellen's main objection to the Cinderella story?
A. The heroine is treated cruelly. B. The heroine is not assertive enough.
C. The ugly stepsisters are figures of ridicule. D. The stepmother is stereotypical.
2. In film versions of the Cinderella story
A. the prince is always replaced by a rich stranger.
B. two characters from the original story are omitted.
C. there is no longer a wicked stepmother.
D. the Cinderella character no longer has to work.
3. Modern film adaptations of the story tend to present a Cinderella
A. whose character remains basically unchanged.
B. who is luckier than she is in the original story.
C. whose circumstances are unusual.
D. that many children might find unconvincing.
4. Modern variants of the story generally
A. portray Cinderella as a successful professional.
B. imply that Cinderella will become a real princess.
C. reflect children's beliefs.
D. make concessions to modern women's lives.
5. In Ellen's view, what makes the Cinderella story so appealing?
A. Children can identify with the heroine. B. Little girls enjoy being challenged.
C. Cinderella is more beautiful than other girls. D. It has an element of magic.
