Made in 1950, the second Disney princess is not all sweet and kind.
The Grimm's version of the story was definitely different and the first thing is that Cinderella's shoe was not glass like in the Disney movie! It was GOLD.
When evening came Cinderella wanted to leave, and the prince tried to escort her, but she ran away from him so quickly that he could not follow her. The prince, however, had set a trap. He had had the entire stairway smeared with pitch. When she ran down the stairs, her left slipper stuck in the pitch. The prince picked it up. It was small and dainty, and of pure gold.
Better than a glass one because in the Disney movie, it wouldn't have shattered if the shoe was freakin' gold.
