Walt Disney gave us a brand new Cinderella!


After 65 years Disney gave us a new Cinderella.This Time with real actors but still keeps the original story. With a great cast of actors like:Lily James, Cate Blanchett, Helen Bonham Carter. I would like to choose my favorite parts of the both versions !









1. Lily James is very beautiful and no one can deny that but I like the animation version of Cinderella more with the hair up! 









2. The waltz is more beautiful in the live actors version, they make us dream during that scene and their eyes are all shine and full of love!













3.Stepmother and sisters,here is getting difficult to choose, but when it comes to Cate Blanchett I surrender and selects her version!


















4.Animated version of stepmother is more powerful model of hair but to the latest version of Femme Fatal dominance of Lady Tramein, really makes us tremble .
















5.The good fairy mother I prefer more the animated version. Because Helen  is more beautiful than Cinderella to my point of view so maybe she can go and catch the prince for herself at the ball.While the animation version the fairy is a little fat and forgetful.
















6. The crystal shoe at the new movie is quite spectacular with the butterfly on the top. If they were for sale we will go buy them for sure,just to have them in our wardrobe!













P.s Regarding the message of the film from a feminist perspective,I would suggest to do the  Bechdel test. Cinderella passes the test with the relationship that she has with the fairy.

Cinema of the 70’s

Before the 'Avatar' phenomenon we all thought that the recent period of Hollywood's golden age would be the 70's. However,  never say never  because the history repeats itself. So in the 70's, new technology like Dolby Sound  and Panavision will bring  people to the cinemas to win the battle with the television as well as in 2009 with the 3D technology will break every record of the cinemagoers. Let us return to the 70 'where  avantgarde generation of filmmakers like George Lucas' Star Wars' and Steven Spielberg with' Jaws' made the history of those years. I must emphasize that in the 70 films Block-buster were those films that used new technology or new achievements in science unknown world outside the planetary, new approaches to distance the human from the religion and God. While the cult films for the message to transmit as 'The Godfather', 'One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest', 'Taxi driver' deal with the topic of post-war, loneliness social chaos that was America and the mafia that in one way or another has been part the most important of its building.

And although women gained priority in social and political life, cinematography does not respond there is no film to represent the women of those days and its efforts in society. In the late 70 'Woody Allen will be one that will bring a new style romantic comedy centered on a young woman already emancipated in his film "Annie Hall." Allen is the only although autobiographical notes which creates the character of Annie which then inspires women in America for the way she dresses. In this film we see that a movie leads and inspires the society and not as a derivative of social events.
Until the 90's would be used in wardrobes of American style of Annie Hall, a woman wearing men's trousers jacket shirt and left anyway but very feminine. This style highlights the difference between fabric and garments for men as men, but retaining the part of women. Woody helps careerist feminist women of those years while I attached to this wardrobe on the other side though with regret that since the entire emancipation of women in society cinema responds only with an innovation-mind wardrobe.

Dresses that you want to find in you wardrobe!

I have to confess that when a girl watches a movie besides crying over a love story or get inspired to change things in her life one other important thing is what the actresses are wearing. I am going to share with you my list, What list? ....come on you know what list we all have it - is the list of the dresses that we want to have some day or that we wish to sew in a cheap tailor in our neighborhood. I am sure that every other girl in the world has one of this dresses in her list.                      
1. Audrey Hepburn red dress in Fanny Faces is the one dress can every girl and women can wear and look gorgeous. We learn from the Hepburn not only to wear a black dress but also to be stunning with the red Edith Head and Givenchy dress.    











2.    Grace Kelly's blue dress in the movie
 'To catch a thief'.  I love the draping of chiffon, the way it flows in sections when she walks and  the two-toned bodice and skirt. 
3. 'Ten things I hate about you' tulle dress. I like it short and long but tulle skirt can be wear for a daytime look too.
 
5. The seven year Itch Marilyn Monroe white dress. I don't need to say anything about this dress because everything is already been said.

6. How to loose a guy in 10 days Kate Hudson yellow satin dress is simple and yet with a sexy back side.One bad thing is that your body should be flawless.
7. Sabrina,Audrey Hepburn. One of the most elegant and timeless dresses of all times.      

8. Atonement Keira Knightley  green satin dress. 
One thing is sure the dress became more famous then the movie.
