Enchanting Caron
21 March 2014
I hope that each successive generation of viewers can continue to discover and experience Leslie Caron's magic. This film, The Glass Slipper, is not very good but watching it you get what you might say is the "Leslie Caron Experience".

Anytime you are downcast or blue you can watch a Leslie Caron film from that era and immediately be mood-enhanced and lifted up by her. So, do I recommend you watch this film? You bet I do. You will see what a transcendent film star really is.

Michael Wilding is handsome. And pleasant. That's about it, but thats all he is supposed to be.

I don't care for the choreography, except for when Ms. Caron is doing ballet alone- of course, it is truly magic. Her scene alone in front of a closed door as she drapes herself down the steps is classic and simply beautiful.

The main musical score is excellent.
