The plot makes little sense and the Price is way too old. Not a great adaptation of the familiar story of Cinderella. Most of the acting is wooden except for Leslie Caron. It didn't have the magic that this fairytale needed.
With that said, what is great about the film is the dancing and the music. It is magical when Caron is dancing the film goes to another level. The Ballet de Paris elevates the dance scenes. I wish they had dumped the movie script and just made a ballet version of the story.
One bit of trivia. Before movie stardom Leslie Caron was a ballerina along with her friend Bridget Bardot.
