Cinderella has many versions starting from 1630's. Each movie is adapted to the typical life of the time. The characters appearances change, as well as what they wear and how they talk. However, the things that stay the same are the plots and story lines of the movie. The magical glass slipper, the prince searching for a princess and the evil step mother and sisters are still present. The earlier movies have the prince wanting to court Cinderella, and in the newer Cinderella they have the prince just sweeping her away and living happily ever after. The way that Cinderella is chased changes according to how guys chase girls at the time. It is important to see that the story is there, but the movie is remade to fit in with the social norms of the current time period.
