Cindy

I CAN NOT believe that there are other people on this planet that have seen this movie besides me!! I have never, and I mean NEVER found anyone else that has seen this movie but me!! I recorded it when I was little back when ABC showed a Disney movie every Saturday but my mom eventually threw it away because it was on some old tape. I swear I thought I had dreamed up the entire movie. I remember asking my sister if she remembered it, from Cindy's "worn" little white keds shoes, to the step sister putting Vaseline on her foot to squeeze her foot in Cindy's shoe, but she just looked at me like I was crazy. Man, I really loved this movie and if anyone out there has a copy, please let me know. I'll buy it from you!! No bull. That movie is a classic. Where in the world did it ever go?!?!

Hello, I was browsing movies online and I ran across this page. I saw Cindy when I was a little girl and fortunately for me I recorded it and I still own the cassette to this day, and with the advances in modern technology I have been able to convert it form VHS format to DVD format. I loved this movie and I still watch it every chance I get, my nieces also love it, we sing every song in the movie each time we watch it.

If you would like a copy, you can contact me at krystalven524@yahoo.com, and I will be happy to send you one for free!! Hope this helps you guys out!!

Hey, I recognize this. I surfed into the middle of it on a far-off channel and never knew what it was called. I hit the channel just as the stepsisters were scat-singing about how it's all gonna be happening at the ball. Wonderful stuff. And I was particularly impressed at the un-dumbing of the ending. Let's face it, the traditional Cinderella is nothing but "Who wants to marry a multi-millionaire" and we all know how dumb that is in the twenty-first century. So for this version, the writers used an ending that is equally happy but brings positive values to the fore.

I first saw this movie when I was 18 years old. It was wonderful! I have been searching and asking about this movie since that time. I am now 42 years old. Clifton Davis played the Prince and he was perfect for the role - tall, dark, and fine. I was beginning to think that I had dreamed the entire movie in my mind. No one I have ever asked have seen the movie. I even shared that it was with all black cast members, still no one remembers it. To my knowledge it was only released on television and only shown the one time in 1978. This is a movie that has held a very special place in my heart for more than half my life - I'm ecstatic to have finally found it and now know the name of the movie to be "Cindy" instead of Cinderella!

This is the best production of Cinderella ever. I can't figure out why it has never been (as far as I can tell) rerun. It features an all-black cast, in a modern setting, with a Cinderella (Cindy) who wants to marry not a prince, but a military man.

In this version, Cinderella's father pretends to have a fancy job at a hotel, but is, in actuality, the men's room attendant.

Cinderella's mom follows him to work one day and angrily confronts him, "You ain't nothing but a lyin, cheatin MEN'S ROOM ATTENDANT!" leading into one of the best numbers I have ever seen in a musical. The men at the hotel rush to Dad's defense in a song, "The Best Damn Men's Room Attendant In the History of the Palace Hotel." At one point, a line of about twenty men file out of one bathroom stall playing brass instruments!

Where did this gem go????
