Cinderella (1950) Edit

A big, ugly mouse, under my teacup.

A horse.

A likely story.

A peculiar title, but if that's what you...

A thousand pardons, Your Grace.

A throne would be your proper place

A wonderful dream come true.

Above

Above all, self control.

Above me

After all, I suppose it would be frightfully dull,

After all, I'm still a member of the family.

After all, we did make a bargain.

Ahh, ooh

Ahhh

All loyal subjects of His Imperial Majesty

All right, all right. I'm coming.

All right, Lucifer. What did you do with him?

All right.

All right. Breakfast is served.

All the trimmings!

ALL: Yuk, yuk. Out.

Although he was a kind and devoted father,

An urgent message from His Imperial Majesty.

ANASTASIA: Cinderella!

ANASTASIA: Cinderella!

ANASTASIA: I don't see why everyone else has nice things to wear,

ANASTASIA: Oh, it's the right foot, but...

ANASTASIA: Oh! Oh, Mother. Oh, Mother!

ANASTASIA: Well, it's about time.

And before you begin your regular chores,

And boring, and completely...

And don't forget the garden. Scrub the terrace.

And don't forget to warn him about the cat.

And everything will be as it was before.

And finally forced to become a servant in her own house.

And gave his beloved child every luxury and comfort,

And he was so handsome, and when we danced...

And his little daughter, Cinderella.

And hurry!

And I always end up in these old rags.

And I can do the sewing.

And I can fly

And I never go back on my word.

And if one can be found whom the slipper fits,

And if you can find something suitable to wear.

And in due course, upon the inevitable demise of His Majesty the King,

And it says, By royal command,

And look, that's my sash. She's wearing my sash.

And perhaps someday...

And see that every eligible maid is there.

And shall be looked upon as the true love of His Royal Highness,

And should one be found upon whose foot this slipper shall properly fit,

And sit in the driver's seat, too.

And so, he married again,

And someday

And that includes you, Your Majesty.

And the sweepin' and the dustin'

And the windows, upstairs and down.

And we'll make a lovely dress for Cinderelly, whoo

And yet, through it all,

And, by royal command,

And, look, glass slippers.

And, of course, there's the mending and the sewing and the laundry.

Announcing His Imperial Grace, the Grand Duke.

Another one?

Anyone can see

Arrangements for the wedding,

As soon as I saw it, I said...

As soon as I saw it, I said...

Ba dum dum ba dum dum Ba dee

Because even miracles take a little time.

Beg, request, or if need be, implore

Better practise passing these out, eh?

Bibbidi bobbidi Bibbidi bobbidi Bibbidi bobbidi boo

Bibbidi, bobbidi, boo.

Bibbidi, bobbidi, boo.

Big, big. Big as a house. (MEOWS)

Bless you, my child.

BOTH: Heave, ho. Heave, ho.

BOTH: Huh? One of us?

BOTH: I'll touch every star

BOTH: Oh, the Prince!

BOTH: So this

BOTH: The key to all Heaven

Brand new. Never saw it before.

Bring her in.

Bruno!

Bruno!

Bruno. Yes, Bruno!

But at least we should try to get along together.

But for short, we'll call you Gus.

But I'm not getting any younger, you know.

But in real life, oh, no.

But it was a lovely dream, too.

But it was so wonderful.

But it was so wonderful.

But it'll have to do.

But it's true, Sire. All we could find was this glass slipper.

But she certainly is... Wait.

But the girl who fits this slipper.

But the thing a ma bob that does the job

But we have to hurry,

But we must be patient.

But you, Sire, are incurably romantic.

But, of course, there will be other times.

But, Sire, he loves her.

But, Sire, in matters of love...

But, Sire, this slipper may fit one of any number of girls.

But, you see, I have the other slipper.

But, Your Majesty, if the Prince should suspect.

By name, Anastasia and Drizella.

By the way, what title would you like?

Can it?

Cat, cat?

Cat, cat. Lucifer. That's him.

Catch him this time? That's bad.

Choosing for his second wife a woman of good family,

Cinderella remained ever gentle and kind.

Cinderella, get my things together.

CINDERELLA: (SOBBING) Please. Please.

CINDERELLA: Breakfast time. Everybody up. Hurry, hurry.

CINDERELLA: Good morning, Anastasia.

CINDERELLA: I'm sorry.

CINDERELLA: Oh, poor Lucifer.

CINDERELLA: Oh, there you are.

CINDERELLA: Stop that. Go on, shoo, shoo.

Cinderella!

Cinderella! I've warned you never to interrupt...

Cinderella! I've warned you never to interrupt...

Cinderella? Cinderella?

Cinderelly will be surprised.

Cinderelly, Cinderelly.

Clean it!

Clean that up, then help my daughters dress.

Cold, cruel, and bitterly jealous

Come back. Please come back.

Come here.

Come on and be careful.

Come on, come on. Get up, Gus Gus, get up.

Come on, everybody, breakfast, breakfast.

Come on, hurry.

Come on, let's eat breakfast.

Come on, now. Outside.

Come on!

Come on. Let him go.

Come, kitty. Come on.

Coming, coming.

Completely wonderful.

Da dum da da dum Bum bum bum

Daughter of Colonel and Madame de la Tour.

Daughter of General Pierre DuBois.

Daughters of Lady Tremaine.

Did you ever see such a beautiful dress?

Did you hear that, Gus?

Didn't we, Cinderella?

Divine

Do I look all right? I'm so excited,

Don't be all day getting it done, either.

Don't forget the mending.

Don't just stand there! Bring up the breakfast trays at once.

Don't you think so, Drizella?

Don't, don't, don't, don't.

Dreaming again.

Dressed. Oh, yes.

Drizella, Anastasia.

DRIZELLA: And this, too, my slippers. Don't forget...

DRIZELLA: Cinderella!

DRIZELLA: Huh. As if you care.

DRIZELLA: Ohhh

DRIZELLA: You should talk. These beads!

Drizella. Drizella!

Duh, Lucify, zuk, zuk.

Duh... Let go! Let go, now.

DUKE: Guard! Guard!

DUKE: What? Tea? (YAWNING)

Eh, um... Oh, yes. It is upon this day decreed

Even he orders me around.

Even the time, but...

Ever told

Every eligible maiden is to attend.

Every eligible maiden is to attend.

Every time she finds a minute, that's the time when they begin it.

Everyone's talking about it, the whole kingdom.

Exactly my size.

Failure, eh?

FAIRY GODMOTHER: But tonight, for a change,

FAIRY GODMOTHER: Oh, this really is nice.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Follow that coach!

For his heart tells him that here,

For instead of a horse, you're the coachman, of course.

For one thing, he...

For the family fortunes were squandered

For with each dawn, she found new hope that someday

For, lo, there she stands.

Get away from me.

Get Lucify to chase him,

Get up. Quick. This instant.

Girls, girls.

Girls, please.

Glass (YAWNING) slipper.

Good bye.

Good heavens, child. You can't go in that!

Good morning, Drizella. Sleep well?

Good morning, Stepmother.

Grow farther, farther, and farther away from you.

Gus Gus, Gus Gus, come on.

Gus Gus. (LAUGHS)

Have a good time. Dance, be gay.

Have faith

Have faith in your dreams and someday

He knows not, nor does he care,

He said it's urgent.

He said that, did he?

He won't rest till he finds her.

He's determined to marry her.

Help yourself.

Her dreams of happiness would come true.

Her, dancing with the Prince. (LAUGHS)

Here I am.

Here is the maid predestined to be his bride.

Here, in a stately chateau,

Here, kitty, kitty.

Here.

Here.

Here. Have a cigar. Take a few more.

Hey! We can do it!

High

High

High

His Grace will read the royal proclamation.

Hmm.

Hmm.

Hmm. Where's Gus Gus?

Hop.

How did you ever manage to... (GASPS)

How very clever.

How'd she do it?

Hurry, hurry, hurry?

I always wear the same size.

I am sick of looking at them.

I can't believe. Not any more.

I can't understand it.

I can't understand it.

I can't understand why.

I don't even know your name. How will I find you?

I don't even know your name. How will I find you?

I don't know.

I don't know. Let's find out. Come on.

I don't think you're half trying.

I give up. Even I couldn't expect the boy to...

I guess I forgot about everything.

I guess my dress will just have to wait.

I have a few little things.

I haven't met the Prince.

I hear you. Come on, get up, you say.

I hereby dub you Sir... Um, uh...

I know I've never seen her.

I know it isn't easy,

I put it away.

I said If.

I shall arrange the ball for...

I tried to stop her,

I want to see my grandchildren before I go.

I was sure there were four. There should be one more.

I was wondering.

I won't have you upsetting yourselves.

I... Goodness me!

I... I want to hear

I'd say the first thing you need is, um,

I'll cut it with the scissors.

I'll do it myself.

I'll have to shorten the sleeves, I'll need a sash,

I'll make it fit. (STRAINING)

I'm all aglow

I'm just going to have to teach you a lesson.

I'm lonely in this desolate old palace.

I'm sorry if Your Highness objects to an early breakfast.

I'm sure I can. Oh, thank you, Stepmother.

I'm...

I've got one. Octavius.

I've got to hurry. See he keeps out of trouble, Jaq.

I've never seen her before.

If all the eligible maidens in my kingdom just

If anything goes wrong...

If he's in love with that girl, why should we even bother?

If you keep on believing

If you keep on believing

If you keep on believing

If you keep on believing

If you'd lost all your faith, I couldn't be here.

In a trap? Why didn't you say so?

In dreams you will lose

In dreams you will lose your heartaches

In the lovely dress we make for Cinderelly

In the sky

In the sweetest story

In your dreams and someday

Invitations, a national holiday.

Is bibbidi bobbidi boo

Is mine

Isn't he?

Isn't it lovely?

Isn't it lovely? Do you like it?

It can't possibly fail.

It fits?

It is decreed...

It may be a trifle snug today.

It seems we have time on our hands.

It shan't happen again.

It will lead you

It wouldn't do for the Duke to see me...

It'll do magic Believe it or not

It's always fit perfectly before.

It's certainly not my idea to feed you first.

It's getting late. Hurry up, dear. The ball can't wait.

It's gonna be pretty, this dress.

It's high time he married and settled down.

It's just no use.

It's more than I ever hoped for.

It's orders. Come on.

It's such a surprise.

Jaq, maybe you better explain things to him.

JAQ: Isn't it wonderful?

JAQ: Uh oh, Lucify. How're we gonna get out?

Jump at you. Bite at you.

Just a boy meeting a girl under the right conditions.

Just a moment.

Just a wave of my stick and to finish the trick,

Just an imaginative child.

Just learn to like cats.

KING: (CHUCKLES) That's one thing in her favour.

KING: And remember,

KING: My son has been avoiding his responsibilities long enough.

KING: Well, come in.

Know how?

La da da da bum dum Ba dee

Leaving behind only this glass slipper.

Let go, let go.

Let him go, Lucifer.

Let him go. Let him out, you hear?

Let me out! You must let me out!

Let's see.

No matter. We've more important things to discuss.

No one, not even the Prince, knows who that girl is.

No use at all.

No, Gus Gus, no.

No, I don't. I think she's...

No, I mean it. Lucifer has his good points, too.

No, no, no! It's Cinderelly's slipper!

No, no, no. Oh, no!

No, no. Nothing can help now. Nothing.

No, no. She can't do it. She can't lock up Cinderelly.

No, please!

No, Sire. No!

No, you don't know what it means to see your only child

No! It was foredoomed to failure.

No. I just can't.

Not going? Oh, what a shame.

Nothing, my dear? Oh, now you don't really mean that.

Nothing.

Notify me immediately.

Notify me immediately.

Now, now, now, just a minute. You must understand, my dear,

Now, now. Look, little guy.

Now, remember, this is your last chance. Don't fail me.

Now, Sire. Remember, your blood pressure.

Now, somebody's got to sneak out,

Now, you two, listen to me. There is still a chance that one of you can get it.

Of Cinderella's charm and beauty,

Of course, Your Majesty.

Of course. Anastasia, dear.

Of her own two awkward daughters.

Peaceful, prosperous, and rich in romance and tradition.

Perhaps we can put it to better use.

Perhaps, if it would help...

Pick up the laundry and get on with your duties.

Please continue.

Please, let him go.

Please, no.

Please, wait for me.

Poor Cinderelly.

Poor Cinderelly.

Poor little Gus.

Precisely, madam.

Put 'em together and what have you got?

Put 'em together and what have you got?

Quick, get Bruno. Get Bruno!

Quiet, my dear. We mustn't disturb His Grace.

Quite so.

Remember, when you're presented to His Highness,

Romantic music.

Run over to the corner and keep Lucify there.

Sabotage!

Said maiden that he be granted her hand in marriage. (YAWNS)

Said Prince will, upon bended knee

Sala gadoola menchika boo la Bibbidi bobbidi boo

Sala gadoola menchika boo la Bibbidi bobbidi boo

Sala gadoola menchika boo la Bibbidi bobbidi boo

See that Lucifer gets his bath.

See they're not disturbed, and when the boy proposes,

Serves him right, I'd say. Now, um...

Shall try on her foot this slipper of glass,

She put it there.

She was grimly determined to forward the interests

She what? Why, you...

She's nice, very nice.

She's out of her mind.

Shh.

Shh. Come on, come on, hurry.

Shh. I don't know. Gotta watch. Come on.

Shh. Sire.

Shoo, shoo, shoo!

Sing

Sing, sweet

Sing, sweet

Sing, sweet nightingale

Sing, sweet nightingale

Sing, sweet nightingale

SISTERS: Cinderella!

So if you don't want to lose that nice, warm bed,

So this is love

So this is love

So this is love

So this is the miracle

So this is the miracle

So this is what makes life devine

So, we're arranging the conditions.

Soft lights.

Something simple, but daring, too.

STEPMOTHER: Close the door, Cinderella.

STEPMOTHER: Nor I.

STEPMOTHER: Well, come in, child, come in.

STEPMOTHER: You clumsy little fool.

Still, he felt she needed a mother's care.

Stop that coach! Close those gates!

Succeed to the throne to rule over the land

Suddenly he stops. He looks up.

Suppose they heard you upstairs.

Surprised, surprised. Very surprised.

Suspect!

Sweep the halls and the stairs. Clean the chimneys.

Take a look at that, you pompous windbag.

Take it easy. Nothin' to worry about.

Thank you so much, for everything.

Thank you, madam, no.

Thank you.

That a quest be instituted throughout... (YAWNING)

That does it, I guess, except for... Oh, yes!

That every maid throughout the kingdom without exception,

That girl shall be the Prince's bride.

That I've been dreaming of

That I've been dreaming of

That the stepmother's true nature was revealed.

That the young lady has disappeared,

That's better. Come on, now. Zuk, zuk.

That's his problem. He's given his word.

That's quite enough. Hurry along now, both of you.

That's strange.

The ball?

The chateau fell into disrepair.

The dream that you wish

The dream that you wish

The dream that you wish

The dream that you wish

The dream that you wish will come true

The dream that you wish will come true

The dreams that I wish

The Duke has been ordered to try it on every girl in the kingdom.

The finishing touch. And, that's you.

The glass slipper is their only clue.

The Grand Duke.

The Grand Duke. He's been hunting all night.

The King, what will he say?

The moment he does...

The next young lady, please.

The one who lost her slipper at the ball last night.

The pitter patter of little feet again.

The Prince, Sire, swears he'll marry none

The Prince?

The sole and express purpose of such quest to be as follows:

The waltz. Quick, the waltz!

The young Prince bowing to the assembly.

Then we all run out. Zuk.

Then, by the King's command,

There is something familiar about her.

There must be at least one who'd make a suitable mother.

There must be something good about him.

There ought to be some good ideas in here.

There was a tiny kingdom,

There you'll see your dreams unfold

There. I knew it was my slipper.

There's nothing left to believe in.

There's nothing to it, really

These beads,

These glass shoes aren't always reliable.

They can't order me to stop dreaming.

They give it just the right touch.

They say he's madly in love with her.

They're my beads. Give them here.

Thief!

Though you're dressed in rags

Thus, as time went by,

Thus, as time went by,

Till she's very, very dizzy

Time for vicious practical jokes.

Time to start another day.

To the kingdom of romance

Treason!

Uh huh. This one.

Uh, hop.

Uh, Lucify. Is that Lucify?

Uh, uh... Take it easy, cluck cluck.

Uh... Oh! (CLEARS THROAT)

Understand? (ECHOING)

Up the stairs, up the stairs!

Up, up, up with it.

Upon the vain and selfish stepsisters,

Us is coming, Cinderelly. Us is coming.

Very well, Sire.

Very well.

Wait! Please wait.

Wash them!

We can do it We can do it

We can use that, Gus Gus.

We gotta get that key quick.

We gotta get that key, Gus Gus. We just gotta get that key.

We haven't a moment to lose.

We must proceed with the fitting.

We'll just see about this.

We'll make a lovely dress for Cinderelly

We'll tie a sash around it Put a ribbon through it

Well, guess he got away.

Well, I never dreamed it.

Well, I see no reason why you can't go.

Well, I... Oh, the Prince,

Well, I'm afraid this can't last forever.

Well, if I may say so, Your Majesty, I did try to warn you,

Well, it serves you right, spoiling people's best dreams.

Well, let's just slip it on for size.

Well, maybe it is old fashioned, but I'll fix that.

Well, sometimes he...

Well, the Prince certainly seems to.

Well, there's one thing.

Well, there's to be a ball.

Well, well, hop in, my dear. We can't waste time.

Well, what could be more natural than a ball to celebrate his return?

Well, why not?

Well... (YAWNING) Now for a good night's sleep.

What for?

What for? Why?

What in the world did I do with that magic wand? I was sure...

What kind of a dream?

What will he do?

What? (GASPS)

What? What did you say?

What's a royal ball?

What's it say, Cinderelly?

What's she gonna do?

What's the matter with her?

What's the matter?

Whatever you wish for

Whatever you wish for You keep

Whatever you wish for you keep

Whatever you wish for You'll keep

When dancing at the ball she'll be more beautiful than all

When you're fast asleep

When you're fast asleep

Where is that wand? I...

Where were we? Oh, goodness, yes.

Whereupon, should the aforementioned maiden

Who she is or whence she came,

Why can't you hold still a minute?

Why, Cinderella,

Why, it's like a dream.

Why, that's my slipper!

Why, we'll have a coach and four when we're through.

Will come true

Will come true

Will come true

Will come true

Will come true

With a bibbidi bobbidi Bibbidi bobbidi

With two daughters just Cinderella's age,

WOMEN: Cinderella!

Work, work, work. She'll never get her dress done.

Would you mind holding my broom?

Wow. I wonder what's the matter.

Ya dum ba dum dum dum dum

Yeah. Keep her busy.

Yes, Anastasia.

Yes, Bruno, that's right, you'll be footman tonight.

Yes, Drizella.

Yes, I know it's a lovely morning,

Yes, my child. But, like all dreams,

Yes, quite so.

Yes, Sire.

Yes, so it does.

Yes, so it is. But why...

Yes, Stepmother.

Yes, Stepmother.

Yes, yes, yes. Real careful.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Yes. Charmed, I'm sure.

Yes. Good night.

Yes. I'll do it.

You are the only ladies in the household I hope... I presume.

You can't go to the ball looking like that.

You can't go to the ball without, um...

You can't keep me in here!

You clumsy! You did it on purpose.

You did it. You did it on purpose.

You go get some trimmin'.

You honour our humble home.

You keep

You know how it is, dancing all night.

You know the orders.

You know what?

You mean old thing.

You must be quite fatigued, Your Grace.

You wear an air of queenly grace

You were in league with the Prince.

You will handle the reins,

You will lose your heartache
