This German Cinderella movie is sweet but confusing | If The Slipper Fits
This episode, we are staying in Germany for a little while longer as we take a look at the TV movie "Aschenputtel" (Cinderella) from 1989. It has its charms, but there's some Grimm-isms and other little idiosyncrasies that drive me batty.
