Question
There is this old vhs cinderella movie and I remember there wasnt a fairy god mother but there was a tree instead and there were doves. There was more than one ball and I remember the stepmother slapped cinderella and made her spill bird seeds everywhere. I also remember a song the step sisters sang its, cinderella cinderella ha ha ha ha he he he your the laughing stock of the whole community. Can you please help me.

Answer
Good Day Destinee!
        I apologise for taking so long to get back to you. I have had a bit of difficulty locating information on the movie you asked about. However, I think (and hope) that I found it. "Once Upon a Brothers Grimm" was a musical made-for-TV movie that came out in 1977 and was nominated for several emmys in 1978. The thing about the tree is actually from the original Brothers Grimm fairy tale and I believe that it was used in this film as well. I have been slightly confused by some of my research but I think that this is what you're looking for. If it's not, don't hesitate to let me know and I will keep looking.

I hope that this is helpful!

                                                Cheers!

Expertise

I can answer almost any question relating to any of the Marx Brothers or their films. Their personal lives were, I believe, twice as interesting as their professional personas.

Experience

I have read many books on the subject including the memoirs of the two most famous Marx Brothers, Groucho and Harpo as well as "Growing up with Chico" the only book written expressly about Chico Marx. Also, I have done exstensive research on all of the brothers, my senior paper being on the subject of their lives.
