Gemma Craven is an acceptable Cinderella, but her mediocre talents are overshadowed by the amazing talents of her co-star, Richard Chamberlain.
Gemma Craven, as the main character, does a fine job, managing to stay just this side of sappy.
Craven's performance leaves you believing that Cinderella is simply a noble being, willing even to sacrifice her own happiness for the good of the people in her homeland, and trying to ensure that the man she loves will not be miserable when he finds she has done so.

In the tiny kingdom of Euphrania, a disgruntled prince (Chamberlain) is pressured to seek a political marriage for the sake of his nation.
Instead he falls for put-upon waif Cinderella (Craven), whose fairy godmother (Crosbie) has given her one magical chance to attend the royal bride-finding ball.
Understandably, this causes complications in a plot that lends a new twist to the familiar tale.
