Three Wishes for Cinderella (2021) Movie Script
Mom, Dad,
please see me.
Hi.
Here.
Cinderella.
Oh no.
Alfred.
Where have you been?
She's awake.
Hurry.
Cinderella.
You look
lovely this morning.
Hurry up, hurry up.
- Hey.
Yeah, now
Hurry up.
Where is Cinderella?
She um, well, she's
by the fireplace.
She does that, you know?
So there you are.
You are a mess.
Go see Dora, she needs you.
You know who is arriving?
Yes, the prince.
Yes, the prince.
Who did that?
Who?
It was me.
Cinderella, of course.
Sorry.
Some inheritance
your father left me.
- Don't speak of my father.
- Excuse me?
Are you fresh?
- No.
- You're spoiled.
It's your father's fault.
I should never have let
him take you hunting
and raise you like a boy,
make you believe you're special.
You will never be
that, you are a nobody.
Cinderella!
Hello?
The prince is coming,
my hair's not done.
- Hurry up.
- I'm coming.
Come on, let's go.
We don't have all day.
We have only one chance
to get to the Royal ball.
I'm not gonna let you ruin it.
Were you outside?
Have I not told
you to stay here?
- But it's--
- Don't you talk back.
Go to your room.
Don't show your face
while the prince is here.
You're a disgrace.
Cinderella.
Thank you.
Here you go, enjoy.
You're lucky, Udun,
you're free to fly away.
He senses
when you come.
Hey everybody, hey
look, they're on the way,
they're on the way.
They're coming.
They're coming, here they come.
It's you that should be the one
who should meet the prince.
He'd fall for you.
Doubt it.
Princess Cinderella?
You never know.
Your stepmother knows
better than to let you
meet the prince.
Oh well, I still have Boulder.
It's gonna be, it's gonna
be many hours, you know?
It's Royal visitors
after all, you know?
Don't look, don't look.
People stare at
them all the time
and don't seem over eager.
Don't look down.
What do I do then?
All of those questions,
nobody wants somebody
who is difficult.
Don't look, just smile.
Oh, you're majesties.
It's such an honor
to have you visit us.
The prince has his own carriage?
The prince sends his regards.
He has lessons, important
lessons he can't miss.
Please, be welcome
into our humble home.
Important lessons?
What should I have said,
that he ran off again?
It's embarrassing.
Just smile.
- There you are.
Fly.
Hey, hi.
So fine you are.
Who has such a fine horse?
Little temperamental, huh?
Ah!
Don't shoot animals
without a good reason.
Who says so?
You?
Is this your forest?
It's surely not yours.
I see, what if it was mine?
The forest belongs to animals.
You are rather fresh.
You oughta watch your horse.
No, no, no, easy now.
Easy, easy, easy.
Good boy, good boy.
Still wild.
Haven't finished his training.
Is he fast?
Nobody's faster.
Well then...
First one to the
top then we'll see.
Why would I race you?
Don't you know who I am?
- I do.
- So?
- You're the last one up, ya.
- Come on, come on.
Come on, come on.
Woo, woo!
Ya.
Ya, go on.
- Ya, come on.
Ya, ya.
Slowing down, huh?
Ha.
Ya, come on, boy.
Ya, whoa.
Ya, ya.
- Whoa, whoa.
- Ya.
Watch out, the cliff.
Easy.
Calm down.
You okay?
He's just nervous.
He needs to know you're a team,
that he's not being forced.
Who are you?
- Where did you go?
- Prince?
- We found your
crossbow.
I...
What are you doing?
Learning to handle
my horse apparently.
By a girl?
Are you a servant now?
A servant, no way.
Do you want
us just to stay here
and talk to girls or
should we go hunting?
Hunting, yes, we
should go hunting.
Come on.
Can I join you?
Hunting
is not for girls.
We can't hang
out with servants.
- I know where we can
go find a fox.
Yes, we should be on our way.
Yes, but how
about, how about...
Yes, what is it?
I thought maybe you would
like to stay for dinner.
It's such a long
ride to the castle .
Then you can watch
my daughter dance.
Dora loves to dance.
It's almost her only joy,
fatherless as she is.
We have to go.
- I'm sorry.
- Of course
and we mustn't take
more of your time.
I'm a humble woman with a
small farm and simple needs
who dreams of dancing
and attending a ball.
Imagine to have such
fantasies for my daughter,
that she might attend a ball.
But what is life without dreams?
You have to be able to dream.
It will be our pleasure
if you will be able to attend.
Ah, What's this?
Is an invitation
to the ball for us?
That is so generous.
Thank you, your majesties.
Thank you for your hospitality.
Yes thank you.
Now let's go.
We're going to the ball,
we're going to the ball.
We got an invitation
to the ball.
Focus on
now, you know what that is?
My wedding, my wedding
to a prince, yes.
A prince is
your only focus.
I can't believe it,
can you believe it?
Mom, that's our
dream, I'm so exited.
Are you okay?
There's no danger.
Just a ball, dumb ball.
She didn't tell me her name.
Your royal highness.
Your highness.
I need to exercise more.
Yes your majesty,
your father is looking for you.
I see.
You must come back
with me right away.
Shouldn't we
let him wait a little?
I beg you, your highness.
I promised their
majesties I will refine your
people skills,
teach you the proper
conversation technique,
and the Regency dance.
It's for the ball,
your highness.
Regency dance?
That's something new.
It is never wrong to
learn proper dancing.
- I know.
Forget it, I'm
not gonna dance.
Where are you going?
No, your royal majesty,
please come back.
Be so kind.
I have an obligation.
Your highness.
I thought we could
go over the list
for the procession,
your majesty.
I've chosen to place Mrs.
Monteon van Morganstine
and her two daughters
behind Lovenskuld daughters
for the ball names.
- Behind?
- Yes, I thought that
be wise since the
Lovenskuld's now have lost
most of their fortune.
Morning.
- Good morning, my son.
So this is the
time you get up?
Bu, bu, bu, bu, bu,
Not so fast.
Sit down.
Where were you yesterday?
Well, there were classes,
Regency dance.
I'm actually hurting all over.
You're pulling my leg.
I'm not, absolutely not.
- This is funny?
- No.
- Do you think
this is fun for us?
Your mother and I
traveling the freezing cold
because it amuses us?
- Do not say
you're sorry.
My son, memorize the guest list.
But why?
That you will give
to the girl of your choosing.
At the ball?
Yes, at the ball.
Can you not see this
as an opportunity?
The most beautiful
girls will be there
and I'm sure you can find
one you will learn to love.
What if I don't
like any of them?
We have gathered all the
daughters of the very best
of the wealthy families-
- I don't want to.
I don't want to marry
some spoiled girl
I don't even know.
You'll do as you're told.
You will dance and you will
converse and you'll be gallant.
Before the night is over,
you will have chosen a girl.
If not, I'll choose for you.
No, no.
No, nope, nope.
Unflattering.
We can take it in.
Do you want it to rip, Dora?
What do you think?
- Pretty color.
- Wrong.
Looks like squash soup.
Hmm?
- Hmm?
- That's horrible.
- You're not even looking.
It is horrible.
Too big maybe?
- The dress is not too big.
- Nope.
A little small.
Well do you know what?
It's not the dress.
It's...
Stand straight.
Chin up, give me a smile.
Not a grimace.
Oh Dora, can't
you be more regal?
No mother, I can't do that.
The aristocrats, they have
tailors, and hairdressers,
and stylers.
- Stylers?
- Yes, styler,
they're experts.
Look at me, no wonder
I got to be this ugly
Please, don't cry.
Cinderella!
Please don't cry.
It'll give me a migraine.
I'm not
crying, I'm not crying.
You look lovely.
Nobody asked you
what you think.
Find Alfred, have him go to town
to find the very best styler
there is.
- Styler?
- You don't know what that is.
Just do as I tell you.
Do the laundry.
Can I help you ease the
load of what you're carrying?
I have to go into town
and fetch a styler.
Yes, yes, they
have to keep up appearances.
You're the one who should
be going to the ball.
Would you like
something from town?
You can bring me a gown
with a train and a tiara.
Bring me whatever comes to you.
One, two, three,
one, two, three,
one, two, three,
one, two, three,
one, two, three,
one, two, three.
This is really good, excellent.
I think we have it now.
The foundation set more or less.
Now you two can make a couple.
Very good, excellent.
Your majesty and
I will be couple
and you gotta be the girls.
Cut it out, cut it out.
Remember now posture,
Bendik posture.
- I know.
- Now stand up straight
and one, two, three,
one, two, three.
- One,
two, three, one, two, three,
one, two, three,
- Now we turn.
- One,
two, three, one, two, three,
one, two, three,
- Look at them.
Very good, boys.
- one, two, three.
- Keep it up.
So lovely.
Look at them.
Marvelous.
Did you see that, your highness?
That was what I...
Your highness!
He left again.
One, two,
three, one, two, three,
What are you doing?
- Oh yeah?
- One, two, three,
one, two, three,
one, two, three,
one, two, three,
one, two, three,
- Dancing like a swan.
- One, two, three.
- Over a lake, one,
two, three, one.
Oh, boys.
- Perfect posture, Bendik.
Me it was
Sami, you were leading.
Leading?
It's usually the man who leads.
I can lead as well.
Boys, hey boys.
- Someone's coming.
- Yeah.
Watch this.
- Good one.
Hi, hi I'm here.
I'm here to the rescue.
- Hello Baron von Snauser.
Thank you for being here.
- Hello.
I don't like assignments
this far into the country,
but a Regal ball
is a Regal ball.
Oh, I know what a prince
likes, that I can guarantee.
I understand.
Come in, not you.
Cinderella, get out of the way.
Oh goodness,
my eyes hurt.
You're in the way.
Dora.
This is the one
I need to work on.
Step up.
Interesting, hmm, I do
love challenges though.
Yes, there is something here.
Her skin must be bleached.
- Bleaching?
- Shows regality.
- I see.
Lactic acid should work.
Yes, of course.
Autumn or spring?
- This has to go for sure.
- I see.
So only lentils
and beans till the big day.
Lentils or beans, yes.
And to you, what
are you wearing?
Me?
You know what they say,
look at the mother and then
you'll know
how the daughter will end up.
- They say that?
- You don't want the prince
to think Dora is provincial.
No, no, God forbid.
That means
there'll be two dresses.
- Two dresses?
- Yes, one dress
for each of you.
I love quick
decisions like this.
Bring in the fabrics.
Bring in the fabrics,
bring in the fabric.
Alfred, hurry Alfred.
But we have to do
something about...
There is an energy which is
contaminating my creativity.
All the grayness hurts
my thought process.
You must leave.
You kill his creativity.
Let's have fun now.
This is what fell on me.
Thank you.
Y ou can't just
give her a gift.
Give it to me.
Alfred gave her a
gift, three old acorns.
That's lovely.
Very cute.
A rat, whoa.
Cinderella, kill it.
- I got you.
You
can't do anything right.
- Get out of here.
What were you thinking, huh?
Go on.
My father's bow?
What am I meant to do with it?
Relax, it's just me.
Brrrrrr.
Left or right?
You choose, Boulder.
You're handsome.
Hello.
Where's your owner?
Hey, you, get away from him.
Oh, I thought you
were a horse thief.
Sorry, my Lord.
Looking for the boys?
The boys?
Yes, you're a
friend of the prince.
Uh-huh.
They went up the
mountain to hunt for birds.
And I mean birds, not
broads, not broads,
if you know what I mean, right?
Are you going to the ball, huh?
That prince is sure lucky.
Imagine what a gift it
is to pick and choose
among all those
lovely ladies, huh?
Personally, I like blondes.
What do you prefer?
Brunettes.
I'll look after this one.
If you hurry up, you'll be
able to catch up with them
and good luck at the ball.
Goodbye.
Let's call it a day.
I'm freezing.
You're
always freezing, Sami.
You've noticed that?
That's probably my
blood circulation.
Okay, should we go home?
Enough, we can't
come home empty handed.
Shall we let Sami freeze just
so you don't have to go back
and get ready for the ball?
Fine.
We'll do it like this,
First man to shoot anything
at all gets this ring.
Now we're
talking, a reward.
- Stop complaining.
A hawk, stop.
You don't shoot
something we don't eat.
When did that rule start?
Huh?
How did that happen?
- Whose arrow is this?
It's not possible.
Is that so?
I believe that arrow is mine.
Are you just gonna stand
there or give it to me?
Okay, here you go.
Who are you?
Don't remember me?
No.
A grouse, a grouse.
You don't have a very
good memory, do you?
How did he do that?
You
wouldn't be able to.
How'd you learn
a shoot like that?
My father.
You're lucky.
My dad just complains
all the time.
Complains about what?
Everything.
I must grow up, get married.
You don't want to?
All I truly want
is to enjoy nature.
I know how you feel.
Should we
continue the hunt?
No, we have a winner.
He wasn't part of it.
- He wasn't...
- Enough.
You earned it.
What's your name?
I...
I can't.
Just tell me your name.
You heard the prince.
So answer the question.
Speak up, who are you?
- Guys, guys.
- Sami.
Sami, you gotta be more
careful about yourself.
Were you out?
What do you do when you're
all alone out there?
Nothing.
- Nothing?
Nothing?
What's in your hand?
What is it you are up to?
My charming lady,
aren't you going to
the ball tonight?
If you were there,
I am sure the prince
would be happy.
Cinderella?
The misses suddenly needs you.
Don't just stand
there, Cinderella.
Check Dora's hair.
Sit down, Dora.
- Yep.
Excuse me, but this doesn't
really feel like my style.
No, of course not.
Nobody leaves my care
looking like themselves.
Cinderella, the shoes.
Don't get in the way,
just get the shoes.
- And the carpet?
- Breath in.
There you go.
Let me see, Dora.
Stand up.
So perfect.
Sweet little Dora.
You're really a genius,
Baron, I must say.
I'm certainly touched.
That is a dress
worthy of a queen.
- Yes.
If you smile a little
and stand up straight,
stand up straight.
Now let's get you set.
You seem me ready for the ball.
Whoa, fabulous.
Whoa, oh yeah.
Hey, do not be nervous.
You look so pretty.
Thank you.
Whoa, all right.
Care to dance?
Come on, up we go.
How sweet you two are.
Maybe Cinderella can join
us at the royal ball.
You mean that?
- Oh dear, oh dear.
You almost had me fooled.
Little Cinderella.
So the coat goes
over your shoulders like this.
Sort out every little sequin
according to its color.
That should keep you busy.
They need to know
where they stand.
Give them a finger and
they take the whole hand.
Of course
you must wear it,
this is why I made it.
Countess
Veronica of Longdale
and her daughter, Dagnan.
There's a pain in my stomach.
You're just nervous.
Countess Jacinsee von Toner
and her daughter, Josephine.
Countess Suzanne van Satter
and her daughter, Trudy.
- Dora.
I can't help it.
Don't
giggle, it's unbecoming.
Are you
paying attention?
- Yes I am.
- That's good.
Unless you plan to
marry those two idiots,
I strongly suggest you
focus on the women.
Would you marry any of them?
- Give the boy
some breathing room.
You too now?
Can this not wait?
Some things
can't be postponed.
- And here is
Dora and her mother.
Your majesties, it's an honor.
It's my life's greatest honor.
He smiled at you.
- When I was your age,
I married without complaint.
Dad, you married mom,
I have to marry a stranger.
Go dance.
Fine.
He's mine.
Thank you.
You think?
My mothers ballgown.
Shall we?
Something funny?
The music?
You prefer baroque style?
What can I tell you?
It's about the right
food and being well.
I worry about taking
care of my body.
I was gonna ask you if
you take care of yourself,
but I've actually only been
eating beans and lentils lately.
Nothing else.
Do you like in the head,
do you prefer beans or lentils?
I love beans and lentils.
Stay here.
Wait. What are you doing?
Let them play something a
little less fun, slower tempo.
They can play
whatever they want.
I am done.
Done?
You're not done.
We meet again.
Have we met?
I think so.
Who's that?
Would you....
Should we dance?
Yes, yes.
What a lovely girl.
This gives me goose bumps.
It will work
better with music.
Yes.
Play.
Play already.
She must come up here.
Wait.
- Why not?
- Let them keep dancing.
Can you please
remove your veil?
Not here.
He's in love, can't you tell?
In love?
Without asking my permission?
Did you ask for permission?
He's like you.
When it comes to
love, he's like you.
I want to know who you are.
Just a hint maybe?
First time, cinder
face, but no soot.
Second time, a hat with feather,
bow and arrow,
but not a hunter.
Third time, a dress with train,
but no princess.
Wait, she looks familiar.
Just
tell me who you are.
But...
No.
Go after her.
Run.
Prince.
Get the
horses, let's go.
Let's spread out.
You must search the entire area.
Look in every house,
however big or small.
We have to find her.
Excuse me, sir.
I'm looking for a girl
in an ice blue dress.
- No, no,
- You sure?
- Sorry.
- Thanks.
Hello, hello.
Wake up.
What's going on?
What is that ruckus?
My goodness, the prince.
Who's the
master of this property?
We have a mistress,
but she is at the ball.
At the ball?
I'm searching for my princess.
A princess here?
Or a girl.
A very lovely girl.
There are many beautiful
girls here on this farm.
What age group is
it you have in mind?
Any age, every
girl on the farm.
Should I really wake up every
girl on the farm right now?
Be so kind, it's important.
Yes.
Go wake them up.
Hurry up, quickly.
Yes, right, I'm awake already,
but the others will
be here soon, oh.
Stop.
Thank you
all for coming outside.
I hope that the one I'm
looking for is one of you.
It's the prince.
Oh, that little traitor.
Now you do as I say, Dora.
For once, you will
do exactly as I say.
It would be much
easier if you knew
what you were looking for.
She's in an ice blue
dress with a kind of veil.
But I have this.
The shoe will help me find her.
She who fits the shoe
is the one I'll marry.
What is shame, the prince has
completely lost his marbles.
Come out, come out
and try the shoe.
Come on out please and try it.
Don't be afraid.
I need to find the girl
who left this shoe.
Sit down, each one of
you will have her chance.
So little Cinderella
went to the ball
in stolen clothes.
Take off that dress.
No.
Give the dress.
Who in the world
has such a small foot?
Nobody will be able
to fit such a shoe.
Is there nobody else?
We do have Cinderella.
- Cinderella?
Cinderella?
Well then go get Cinderella.
Cinderella?
Cinderella.
Cinderella.
- Help, help, help me, help.
Please don't.
No, no, no, please.
Please no.
Help, help.
Prince.
No, no, wait, wait.
Keep your head
down and don't say anything.
Sit down so he doesn't
see how tall you are.
- My prince.
- Hi, hi.
I'm looking for you.
Why is that?
- Excuse me?
- Why is that?
Is this your daughter?
I want to...
I really wanna marry her.
And just ask her.
Hi.
Won't you look at me?
Hey,
come and help me.
Will you, will
you try this shoe?
- The shoe?
- Yes.
Can she try it on?
I don't think so.
Why should she?
But you should recognize her.
Keep going, just
a little more.
That's good.
Why doesn't she say anything?
She will speak when she
gets a ring on her hand.
- She needs to try
on the shoe first.
- You know what?
The ring first.
- Thank you.
You can't take advantage
of a girl, Prince.
Not till you've
made a commitment.
No, shoe first.
No, there will be no shoes.
Come on, let's go.
No, wait.
Go.
Come on go, ya, ya.
No.
But nothing happened.
It's just plain me.
So that is good enough.
- Mother, not so fast.
- Come on, faster.
- Come on, ya, ya.
- Ah!
Where are we going?
Quiet, I'm thinking.
No!
- No, no.
- Mamma.
Hang on, I'm here.
Mamma, ow, mamma.
Take my hand.
Hold on.
You're safe, everything is fine.
- But it's not you.
- Hm-hm.
You're not her.
- I'm sorry.
- Stop!
- Oh, huh, whoa, whoa.
Help me!
Help please!
So you want to be a queen?
You a little servant girl,
dirty little Cinderella.
You are nothing.
You are nobody.
You are nothing, you are nobody.
You are nobody, you are nothing,
you are nothing, you're nobody,
you are nothing,
you are nothing.
No.
Help me, hello.
Help.
Hang on.
I've got you.
Get me loose.
Just keep a lid on it, mother.
You found it.
I don't need this to
know it's really you.
Cinder on your
face, but no soot.
Hat with a feather,
bow and arrow,
but not a hunter.
Dressed with a
train, but no princess.
It was you, it
was you all along.
This is yours.
Will you marry me?
Marry you?
If you'll have me.
Of course I will.
We only just met.
Yes, but this is destiny.
We can do exactly as we want.
- I'm freezing.
- Just one more farm.
- Stop, stop.
What is it that you want?
We're looking for a princess.
You as well?
No need to look any further,
I've found her.
Tor, ring the bell.
Time to dance.
That dress suits you so well.
I think you should
go to your room
and get some rest.
Good idea?
Care for a dance?
Now what?
In fairy tales, this is
the time we kiss each other.
Yeah?
But first you
have to catch me.
Woo-hoo!
Woo!
please see me.
Hi.
Here.
Cinderella.
Oh no.
Alfred.
Where have you been?
She's awake.
Hurry.
Cinderella.
You look
lovely this morning.
Hurry up, hurry up.
- Hey.
Yeah, now
Hurry up.
Where is Cinderella?
She um, well, she's
by the fireplace.
She does that, you know?
So there you are.
You are a mess.
Go see Dora, she needs you.
You know who is arriving?
Yes, the prince.
Yes, the prince.
Who did that?
Who?
It was me.
Cinderella, of course.
Sorry.
Some inheritance
your father left me.
- Don't speak of my father.
- Excuse me?
Are you fresh?
- No.
- You're spoiled.
It's your father's fault.
I should never have let
him take you hunting
and raise you like a boy,
make you believe you're special.
You will never be
that, you are a nobody.
Cinderella!
Hello?
The prince is coming,
my hair's not done.
- Hurry up.
- I'm coming.
Come on, let's go.
We don't have all day.
We have only one chance
to get to the Royal ball.
I'm not gonna let you ruin it.
Were you outside?
Have I not told
you to stay here?
- But it's--
- Don't you talk back.
Go to your room.
Don't show your face
while the prince is here.
You're a disgrace.
Cinderella.
Thank you.
Here you go, enjoy.
You're lucky, Udun,
you're free to fly away.
He senses
when you come.
Hey everybody, hey
look, they're on the way,
they're on the way.
They're coming.
They're coming, here they come.
It's you that should be the one
who should meet the prince.
He'd fall for you.
Doubt it.
Princess Cinderella?
You never know.
Your stepmother knows
better than to let you
meet the prince.
Oh well, I still have Boulder.
It's gonna be, it's gonna
be many hours, you know?
It's Royal visitors
after all, you know?
Don't look, don't look.
People stare at
them all the time
and don't seem over eager.
Don't look down.
What do I do then?
All of those questions,
nobody wants somebody
who is difficult.
Don't look, just smile.
Oh, you're majesties.
It's such an honor
to have you visit us.
The prince has his own carriage?
The prince sends his regards.
He has lessons, important
lessons he can't miss.
Please, be welcome
into our humble home.
Important lessons?
What should I have said,
that he ran off again?
It's embarrassing.
Just smile.
- There you are.
Fly.
Hey, hi.
So fine you are.
Who has such a fine horse?
Little temperamental, huh?
Ah!
Don't shoot animals
without a good reason.
Who says so?
You?
Is this your forest?
It's surely not yours.
I see, what if it was mine?
The forest belongs to animals.
You are rather fresh.
You oughta watch your horse.
No, no, no, easy now.
Easy, easy, easy.
Good boy, good boy.
Still wild.
Haven't finished his training.
Is he fast?
Nobody's faster.
Well then...
First one to the
top then we'll see.
Why would I race you?
Don't you know who I am?
- I do.
- So?
- You're the last one up, ya.
- Come on, come on.
Come on, come on.
Woo, woo!
Ya.
Ya, go on.
- Ya, come on.
Ya, ya.
Slowing down, huh?
Ha.
Ya, come on, boy.
Ya, whoa.
Ya, ya.
- Whoa, whoa.
- Ya.
Watch out, the cliff.
Easy.
Calm down.
You okay?
He's just nervous.
He needs to know you're a team,
that he's not being forced.
Who are you?
- Where did you go?
- Prince?
- We found your
crossbow.
I...
What are you doing?
Learning to handle
my horse apparently.
By a girl?
Are you a servant now?
A servant, no way.
Do you want
us just to stay here
and talk to girls or
should we go hunting?
Hunting, yes, we
should go hunting.
Come on.
Can I join you?
Hunting
is not for girls.
We can't hang
out with servants.
- I know where we can
go find a fox.
Yes, we should be on our way.
Yes, but how
about, how about...
Yes, what is it?
I thought maybe you would
like to stay for dinner.
It's such a long
ride to the castle .
Then you can watch
my daughter dance.
Dora loves to dance.
It's almost her only joy,
fatherless as she is.
We have to go.
- I'm sorry.
- Of course
and we mustn't take
more of your time.
I'm a humble woman with a
small farm and simple needs
who dreams of dancing
and attending a ball.
Imagine to have such
fantasies for my daughter,
that she might attend a ball.
But what is life without dreams?
You have to be able to dream.
It will be our pleasure
if you will be able to attend.
Ah, What's this?
Is an invitation
to the ball for us?
That is so generous.
Thank you, your majesties.
Thank you for your hospitality.
Yes thank you.
Now let's go.
We're going to the ball,
we're going to the ball.
We got an invitation
to the ball.
Focus on
now, you know what that is?
My wedding, my wedding
to a prince, yes.
A prince is
your only focus.
I can't believe it,
can you believe it?
Mom, that's our
dream, I'm so exited.
Are you okay?
There's no danger.
Just a ball, dumb ball.
She didn't tell me her name.
Your royal highness.
Your highness.
I need to exercise more.
Yes your majesty,
your father is looking for you.
I see.
You must come back
with me right away.
Shouldn't we
let him wait a little?
I beg you, your highness.
I promised their
majesties I will refine your
people skills,
teach you the proper
conversation technique,
and the Regency dance.
It's for the ball,
your highness.
Regency dance?
That's something new.
It is never wrong to
learn proper dancing.
- I know.
Forget it, I'm
not gonna dance.
Where are you going?
No, your royal majesty,
please come back.
Be so kind.
I have an obligation.
Your highness.
I thought we could
go over the list
for the procession,
your majesty.
I've chosen to place Mrs.
Monteon van Morganstine
and her two daughters
behind Lovenskuld daughters
for the ball names.
- Behind?
- Yes, I thought that
be wise since the
Lovenskuld's now have lost
most of their fortune.
Morning.
- Good morning, my son.
So this is the
time you get up?
Bu, bu, bu, bu, bu,
Not so fast.
Sit down.
Where were you yesterday?
Well, there were classes,
Regency dance.
I'm actually hurting all over.
You're pulling my leg.
I'm not, absolutely not.
- This is funny?
- No.
- Do you think
this is fun for us?
Your mother and I
traveling the freezing cold
because it amuses us?
- Do not say
you're sorry.
My son, memorize the guest list.
But why?
That you will give
to the girl of your choosing.
At the ball?
Yes, at the ball.
Can you not see this
as an opportunity?
The most beautiful
girls will be there
and I'm sure you can find
one you will learn to love.
What if I don't
like any of them?
We have gathered all the
daughters of the very best
of the wealthy families-
- I don't want to.
I don't want to marry
some spoiled girl
I don't even know.
You'll do as you're told.
You will dance and you will
converse and you'll be gallant.
Before the night is over,
you will have chosen a girl.
If not, I'll choose for you.
No, no.
No, nope, nope.
Unflattering.
We can take it in.
Do you want it to rip, Dora?
What do you think?
- Pretty color.
- Wrong.
Looks like squash soup.
Hmm?
- Hmm?
- That's horrible.
- You're not even looking.
It is horrible.
Too big maybe?
- The dress is not too big.
- Nope.
A little small.
Well do you know what?
It's not the dress.
It's...
Stand straight.
Chin up, give me a smile.
Not a grimace.
Oh Dora, can't
you be more regal?
No mother, I can't do that.
The aristocrats, they have
tailors, and hairdressers,
and stylers.
- Stylers?
- Yes, styler,
they're experts.
Look at me, no wonder
I got to be this ugly
Please, don't cry.
Cinderella!
Please don't cry.
It'll give me a migraine.
I'm not
crying, I'm not crying.
You look lovely.
Nobody asked you
what you think.
Find Alfred, have him go to town
to find the very best styler
there is.
- Styler?
- You don't know what that is.
Just do as I tell you.
Do the laundry.
Can I help you ease the
load of what you're carrying?
I have to go into town
and fetch a styler.
Yes, yes, they
have to keep up appearances.
You're the one who should
be going to the ball.
Would you like
something from town?
You can bring me a gown
with a train and a tiara.
Bring me whatever comes to you.
One, two, three,
one, two, three,
one, two, three,
one, two, three,
one, two, three,
one, two, three.
This is really good, excellent.
I think we have it now.
The foundation set more or less.
Now you two can make a couple.
Very good, excellent.
Your majesty and
I will be couple
and you gotta be the girls.
Cut it out, cut it out.
Remember now posture,
Bendik posture.
- I know.
- Now stand up straight
and one, two, three,
one, two, three.
- One,
two, three, one, two, three,
one, two, three,
- Now we turn.
- One,
two, three, one, two, three,
one, two, three,
- Look at them.
Very good, boys.
- one, two, three.
- Keep it up.
So lovely.
Look at them.
Marvelous.
Did you see that, your highness?
That was what I...
Your highness!
He left again.
One, two,
three, one, two, three,
What are you doing?
- Oh yeah?
- One, two, three,
one, two, three,
one, two, three,
one, two, three,
one, two, three,
- Dancing like a swan.
- One, two, three.
- Over a lake, one,
two, three, one.
Oh, boys.
- Perfect posture, Bendik.
Me it was
Sami, you were leading.
Leading?
It's usually the man who leads.
I can lead as well.
Boys, hey boys.
- Someone's coming.
- Yeah.
Watch this.
- Good one.
Hi, hi I'm here.
I'm here to the rescue.
- Hello Baron von Snauser.
Thank you for being here.
- Hello.
I don't like assignments
this far into the country,
but a Regal ball
is a Regal ball.
Oh, I know what a prince
likes, that I can guarantee.
I understand.
Come in, not you.
Cinderella, get out of the way.
Oh goodness,
my eyes hurt.
You're in the way.
Dora.
This is the one
I need to work on.
Step up.
Interesting, hmm, I do
love challenges though.
Yes, there is something here.
Her skin must be bleached.
- Bleaching?
- Shows regality.
- I see.
Lactic acid should work.
Yes, of course.
Autumn or spring?
- This has to go for sure.
- I see.
So only lentils
and beans till the big day.
Lentils or beans, yes.
And to you, what
are you wearing?
Me?
You know what they say,
look at the mother and then
you'll know
how the daughter will end up.
- They say that?
- You don't want the prince
to think Dora is provincial.
No, no, God forbid.
That means
there'll be two dresses.
- Two dresses?
- Yes, one dress
for each of you.
I love quick
decisions like this.
Bring in the fabrics.
Bring in the fabrics,
bring in the fabric.
Alfred, hurry Alfred.
But we have to do
something about...
There is an energy which is
contaminating my creativity.
All the grayness hurts
my thought process.
You must leave.
You kill his creativity.
Let's have fun now.
This is what fell on me.
Thank you.
Y ou can't just
give her a gift.
Give it to me.
Alfred gave her a
gift, three old acorns.
That's lovely.
Very cute.
A rat, whoa.
Cinderella, kill it.
- I got you.
You
can't do anything right.
- Get out of here.
What were you thinking, huh?
Go on.
My father's bow?
What am I meant to do with it?
Relax, it's just me.
Brrrrrr.
Left or right?
You choose, Boulder.
You're handsome.
Hello.
Where's your owner?
Hey, you, get away from him.
Oh, I thought you
were a horse thief.
Sorry, my Lord.
Looking for the boys?
The boys?
Yes, you're a
friend of the prince.
Uh-huh.
They went up the
mountain to hunt for birds.
And I mean birds, not
broads, not broads,
if you know what I mean, right?
Are you going to the ball, huh?
That prince is sure lucky.
Imagine what a gift it
is to pick and choose
among all those
lovely ladies, huh?
Personally, I like blondes.
What do you prefer?
Brunettes.
I'll look after this one.
If you hurry up, you'll be
able to catch up with them
and good luck at the ball.
Goodbye.
Let's call it a day.
I'm freezing.
You're
always freezing, Sami.
You've noticed that?
That's probably my
blood circulation.
Okay, should we go home?
Enough, we can't
come home empty handed.
Shall we let Sami freeze just
so you don't have to go back
and get ready for the ball?
Fine.
We'll do it like this,
First man to shoot anything
at all gets this ring.
Now we're
talking, a reward.
- Stop complaining.
A hawk, stop.
You don't shoot
something we don't eat.
When did that rule start?
Huh?
How did that happen?
- Whose arrow is this?
It's not possible.
Is that so?
I believe that arrow is mine.
Are you just gonna stand
there or give it to me?
Okay, here you go.
Who are you?
Don't remember me?
No.
A grouse, a grouse.
You don't have a very
good memory, do you?
How did he do that?
You
wouldn't be able to.
How'd you learn
a shoot like that?
My father.
You're lucky.
My dad just complains
all the time.
Complains about what?
Everything.
I must grow up, get married.
You don't want to?
All I truly want
is to enjoy nature.
I know how you feel.
Should we
continue the hunt?
No, we have a winner.
He wasn't part of it.
- He wasn't...
- Enough.
You earned it.
What's your name?
I...
I can't.
Just tell me your name.
You heard the prince.
So answer the question.
Speak up, who are you?
- Guys, guys.
- Sami.
Sami, you gotta be more
careful about yourself.
Were you out?
What do you do when you're
all alone out there?
Nothing.
- Nothing?
Nothing?
What's in your hand?
What is it you are up to?
My charming lady,
aren't you going to
the ball tonight?
If you were there,
I am sure the prince
would be happy.
Cinderella?
The misses suddenly needs you.
Don't just stand
there, Cinderella.
Check Dora's hair.
Sit down, Dora.
- Yep.
Excuse me, but this doesn't
really feel like my style.
No, of course not.
Nobody leaves my care
looking like themselves.
Cinderella, the shoes.
Don't get in the way,
just get the shoes.
- And the carpet?
- Breath in.
There you go.
Let me see, Dora.
Stand up.
So perfect.
Sweet little Dora.
You're really a genius,
Baron, I must say.
I'm certainly touched.
That is a dress
worthy of a queen.
- Yes.
If you smile a little
and stand up straight,
stand up straight.
Now let's get you set.
You seem me ready for the ball.
Whoa, fabulous.
Whoa, oh yeah.
Hey, do not be nervous.
You look so pretty.
Thank you.
Whoa, all right.
Care to dance?
Come on, up we go.
How sweet you two are.
Maybe Cinderella can join
us at the royal ball.
You mean that?
- Oh dear, oh dear.
You almost had me fooled.
Little Cinderella.
So the coat goes
over your shoulders like this.
Sort out every little sequin
according to its color.
That should keep you busy.
They need to know
where they stand.
Give them a finger and
they take the whole hand.
Of course
you must wear it,
this is why I made it.
Countess
Veronica of Longdale
and her daughter, Dagnan.
There's a pain in my stomach.
You're just nervous.
Countess Jacinsee von Toner
and her daughter, Josephine.
Countess Suzanne van Satter
and her daughter, Trudy.
- Dora.
I can't help it.
Don't
giggle, it's unbecoming.
Are you
paying attention?
- Yes I am.
- That's good.
Unless you plan to
marry those two idiots,
I strongly suggest you
focus on the women.
Would you marry any of them?
- Give the boy
some breathing room.
You too now?
Can this not wait?
Some things
can't be postponed.
- And here is
Dora and her mother.
Your majesties, it's an honor.
It's my life's greatest honor.
He smiled at you.
- When I was your age,
I married without complaint.
Dad, you married mom,
I have to marry a stranger.
Go dance.
Fine.
He's mine.
Thank you.
You think?
My mothers ballgown.
Shall we?
Something funny?
The music?
You prefer baroque style?
What can I tell you?
It's about the right
food and being well.
I worry about taking
care of my body.
I was gonna ask you if
you take care of yourself,
but I've actually only been
eating beans and lentils lately.
Nothing else.
Do you like in the head,
do you prefer beans or lentils?
I love beans and lentils.
Stay here.
Wait. What are you doing?
Let them play something a
little less fun, slower tempo.
They can play
whatever they want.
I am done.
Done?
You're not done.
We meet again.
Have we met?
I think so.
Who's that?
Would you....
Should we dance?
Yes, yes.
What a lovely girl.
This gives me goose bumps.
It will work
better with music.
Yes.
Play.
Play already.
She must come up here.
Wait.
- Why not?
- Let them keep dancing.
Can you please
remove your veil?
Not here.
He's in love, can't you tell?
In love?
Without asking my permission?
Did you ask for permission?
He's like you.
When it comes to
love, he's like you.
I want to know who you are.
Just a hint maybe?
First time, cinder
face, but no soot.
Second time, a hat with feather,
bow and arrow,
but not a hunter.
Third time, a dress with train,
but no princess.
Wait, she looks familiar.
Just
tell me who you are.
But...
No.
Go after her.
Run.
Prince.
Get the
horses, let's go.
Let's spread out.
You must search the entire area.
Look in every house,
however big or small.
We have to find her.
Excuse me, sir.
I'm looking for a girl
in an ice blue dress.
- No, no,
- You sure?
- Sorry.
- Thanks.
Hello, hello.
Wake up.
What's going on?
What is that ruckus?
My goodness, the prince.
Who's the
master of this property?
We have a mistress,
but she is at the ball.
At the ball?
I'm searching for my princess.
A princess here?
Or a girl.
A very lovely girl.
There are many beautiful
girls here on this farm.
What age group is
it you have in mind?
Any age, every
girl on the farm.
Should I really wake up every
girl on the farm right now?
Be so kind, it's important.
Yes.
Go wake them up.
Hurry up, quickly.
Yes, right, I'm awake already,
but the others will
be here soon, oh.
Stop.
Thank you
all for coming outside.
I hope that the one I'm
looking for is one of you.
It's the prince.
Oh, that little traitor.
Now you do as I say, Dora.
For once, you will
do exactly as I say.
It would be much
easier if you knew
what you were looking for.
She's in an ice blue
dress with a kind of veil.
But I have this.
The shoe will help me find her.
She who fits the shoe
is the one I'll marry.
What is shame, the prince has
completely lost his marbles.
Come out, come out
and try the shoe.
Come on out please and try it.
Don't be afraid.
I need to find the girl
who left this shoe.
Sit down, each one of
you will have her chance.
So little Cinderella
went to the ball
in stolen clothes.
Take off that dress.
No.
Give the dress.
Who in the world
has such a small foot?
Nobody will be able
to fit such a shoe.
Is there nobody else?
We do have Cinderella.
- Cinderella?
Cinderella?
Well then go get Cinderella.
Cinderella?
Cinderella.
Cinderella.
- Help, help, help me, help.
Please don't.
No, no, no, please.
Please no.
Help, help.
Prince.
No, no, wait, wait.
Keep your head
down and don't say anything.
Sit down so he doesn't
see how tall you are.
- My prince.
- Hi, hi.
I'm looking for you.
Why is that?
- Excuse me?
- Why is that?
Is this your daughter?
I want to...
I really wanna marry her.
And just ask her.
Hi.
Won't you look at me?
Hey,
come and help me.
Will you, will
you try this shoe?
- The shoe?
- Yes.
Can she try it on?
I don't think so.
Why should she?
But you should recognize her.
Keep going, just
a little more.
That's good.
Why doesn't she say anything?
She will speak when she
gets a ring on her hand.
- She needs to try
on the shoe first.
- You know what?
The ring first.
- Thank you.
You can't take advantage
of a girl, Prince.
Not till you've
made a commitment.
No, shoe first.
No, there will be no shoes.
Come on, let's go.
No, wait.
Go.
Come on go, ya, ya.
No.
But nothing happened.
It's just plain me.
So that is good enough.
- Mother, not so fast.
- Come on, faster.
- Come on, ya, ya.
- Ah!
Where are we going?
Quiet, I'm thinking.
No!
- No, no.
- Mamma.
Hang on, I'm here.
Mamma, ow, mamma.
Take my hand.
Hold on.
You're safe, everything is fine.
- But it's not you.
- Hm-hm.
You're not her.
- I'm sorry.
- Stop!
- Oh, huh, whoa, whoa.
Help me!
Help please!
So you want to be a queen?
You a little servant girl,
dirty little Cinderella.
You are nothing.
You are nobody.
You are nothing, you are nobody.
You are nobody, you are nothing,
you are nothing, you're nobody,
you are nothing,
you are nothing.
No.
Help me, hello.
Help.
Hang on.
I've got you.
Get me loose.
Just keep a lid on it, mother.
You found it.
I don't need this to
know it's really you.
Cinder on your
face, but no soot.
Hat with a feather,
bow and arrow,
but not a hunter.
Dressed with a
train, but no princess.
It was you, it
was you all along.
This is yours.
Will you marry me?
Marry you?
If you'll have me.
Of course I will.
We only just met.
Yes, but this is destiny.
We can do exactly as we want.
- I'm freezing.
- Just one more farm.
- Stop, stop.
What is it that you want?
We're looking for a princess.
You as well?
No need to look any further,
I've found her.
Tor, ring the bell.
Time to dance.
That dress suits you so well.
I think you should
go to your room
and get some rest.
Good idea?
Care for a dance?
Now what?
In fairy tales, this is
the time we kiss each other.
Yeah?
But first you
have to catch me.
Woo-hoo!
Woo!
