A reworking of Cinderella, with Drew Barrymore as a spirited tomboy in 16th-century France, reading philosophy and slaving for her stepmum (Anjelica Huston) and two spoilt half-sisters.
The older sister plots to win dashing prince Dougray Scott, but it's Drew who dazzles him. The fairytale locations are sumptuous in a fresh and satisfying yarn.
