Cinderella La

Cinderella tells the story of young Ella (Lily James), whose father remarries after the tragic death of her mother. To support her loving father, Ella warmly welcomes her stepmother Lady Tremaine (Cate Blanchett) and her daughters Anastasia (Holliday Grainger) and Drisella (Sophie McShera) into the family. However, when her father unexpectedly dies as well, Ella finds herself defenseless against the jealousy and cruelty of her new family. Soon relegated to the status of a mere servant and mockingly called "Cinderella" by everyone, it seems that all hope is lost for Ella. But the memory of her mother gives Ella courage and new hope. One day, while wandering in the woods, she encounters a handsome stranger (Richard Madden) and feels she has finally found a soulmate. She believes the charming man to be a servant in the royal palace, unaware that he is actually the prince himself. When the court invites all the young women of the land to a grand ball, Ella sees her chance to meet him again. Against all odds and with the help of a good fairy (Helena Bonham Carter), a pumpkin, and some mice, Cinderella sets out to change her life once and for all.
