enchanting take on Cinderella story, 7 October 2007
8/10
Author: william walker (weezeralfalfa@yahoo.com) from United States

My favorite Sophia Loren film, sprinkled with occasional medieval magic and fantasy. I think the best of various modern takes on the classic Cinderella fairy tale. Sophia and Omar were never more handsome and sexy than in this one. But, I can't believe that two such proud and strong-willed people could last long as a pair. Yes, they would respect each other for these qualities, but there would be frequent incidents that would bring out their temper and stubbornness and make for a very volatile relationship, similar to what we saw in the film. Unfortunately, I could not find a commercial source of this film on the internet at present.
