Writing Assignment 6-My Reaction to the Video: Cinderella
Date:2006/5/18
Grade: 90
The video of Cinderella, played in last Thursday's class, is simply beautiful and sweet. The Disney cartoon version of Cinderella which I never liked when I was a child, always seemed too ”easy.” But this is much more in-depth. All the characters have the strong and diverse personalities. But the strangest and funniest issue is about the cast's arrangement, such as an African-American Cinderella, an Asian Prince, an evil white stepmother, a white King, an African-American Queen and different colors of stepsisters. The multi-ethnic cast's arranged to break the audience's stereotype, but the movie still is very well performed and enjoyable. Another interesting issue is music. I watched the video, singing along with the songs with cast members. My particular favorites are the Cinderella and Chris duets: “The dearest love” and “Do I love you; because you're beautiful?” Another song is “Impossible” by Whitney Houston. Some of the lyrics are “Impossible. No one can stop you but you. It's possible. Impossible things happen every day....” I think that's a good encouragement song for people. For most of the songs are easy to sing with easy English and sweet melodies. My goal is to teach these songs to the church's children. I am hoping they also have a great time with this video.
