Barron and Cinderella

Fr Robert Barron  has a review of the recent live-action movie about Cinderella at ChurchPop.

He begins:
Kenneth Branagh’s “Cinderella” is the most surprising Hollywood movie of the year so far. 
I say this because the director manages to tells the familiar fairy tale without irony, hyper-feminist sub-plots, Marxist insinuations, deconstructionist cynicism, or arch condescension. In so doing, he actually allows the spiritual, indeed specifically Christian, character of the tale to emerge.

 It is a review well worth reading.
