“Always be a good girl, and I will look down from heaven and watch over you.” (Page 1) The Disney Cinderella was released on February 15th, 1950 but the tale told by The Grimm Brothers is a different twist on the Disney classic movie; instead of a fairy godmother and sweet, little mice running around, The Grimm Brothers wrote about a tree growing on Cinderellas mothers’ grave and with the help of tiny birds, every wish Cinderella makes comes true. The violent version of Cinderella by the Grimm Brother explains the struggle she faced trying to get away from her stepsisters but also keeping her humble and kind side looking for true love.

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz written by L. Frank Baum and The Wizard of Oz directed by Victor Fleming has many differences even though they are based on the same story.

In the book Oz gave a brain, a heart, and courage, yet in the film he gave a Th. D, a medal of courage, and a heart clock.

In the depths of American Culture, several items define who we are. Many come to mind such as the declaration of Independence and the constitution. But, buried deep in the cockles rests a pop culture icon that represents early Hollywood, and the last 100 years in American culture. That item would be the Ruby Slippers worn by Judy Garland in The Wizard of Oz (Fleming,1939). The film is almost a rite of passage in our society, and those shoes to many of us represent that times in our lives, mostly when we were young, when we first feared for the twister, wanted to get smarter with Scarecrow, got lessons from the Tin-Man, learned how to stand up for those around us from Cowardly Lion, and first learned what evil is with the Wicked Witch of the West.
