This week we look at the origins of the Cinderella fairy tale all the way up to its latest adapation. We talk about the films we watched and loved growing up Ella Enchanted and A Cinderella Story, both from 2004 and the good parts and the bad parts of those films nearly two decades later. Hannah discusses the pitfalls with the latest adaptation and how it's main focus on Cinderella being a girlboss fails to make it the feminist film it's trying to be.
