 Cinderella 1997  TV, 86 min.
Genre: Family / Musical / Fantasy
aka: Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella
Director: Robert Iscove
Cast: Whitney Houston, Brandy Norwood, Bernadette Peters, Jason Alexander, Whoopi Goldberg, Victor Garber, Veanne Cox, Natalie Desselle, Paolo Montalban, Michael Haynes, Nathan Prevost, Travis Payne, Scott Fowler, Jennifer Lee Keyes, Melanie A. Gage
Brandy Norwood stars in the title role of this made-for-TV version of "Cinderella." Queen Constantina (Whoopi Goldberg) has commanded a grand ball, and the Fairy Godmother (Whitney Houston) appears and magically turns Cinderella into a beautiful young woman. But, the magic will last only until midnight. Cinderella goes to the ball and captures the heart of the Prince (Paolo Montalban)–but she must flee when the clock strikes midnight. The witty entertainment, laced with songs by Richard Rodgers, is every bit as enjoyable as its predecessors: the 1957 Julie Andrews and 1965 Leslie Ann Warren productions.
