Kenneth Branagh’s live-action adaptation of Cinderalla for Disney appears to be a straight-up old fashioned retelling, which is actually kind of refreshing given the current state of darker, grimmer fairy tale adaptations told from various “fresh” perspectives.

The most disconcerting thing about it, though, is seeing Richard Madden as a handsome, clean-shaven prince.
