action

18-year-old Cindy lives in Brooklyn with her father, the pizza maker Harry, her bitchy stepsisters and the wicked stepmother Muriel and is a talented singer and dancer of the New York music scene.

Muriel is planning a trip to Italy so that her untalented daughters Liz and Carol can finish their music education there and to look for appropriate sons-in-law. During the trip, Cindy gets to know and love the Italian musician Mizio. After an argument, Cindy and Mizio run away. On the run the two split up in an argument, but Cindy celebrates her first success as a singer. In the end, she takes part in the grand ball of the noble Gherardeschi family and realizes that Mizio is a real prince, from whom she first flees and leaves her silver shoe before the happy ending . His nickname "Mizio" is an abbreviation for his real name: Mi chele Eudi zio

criticism

The lexicon of international films wrote: “Rock music fairy tale decorated with all available clichés in a pseudo-romantic narrative manner, which transplanted the Cinderella fairy tale motif into the present with gentle, catchy pop music; entertaining for teenagers at best. "

Others

The feature film Cinderella '80 was shown for the first time on January 3, 1986 in the evening program of GDR television. In the FRG , ARD broadcast the film as a four-part mini-series under the title Cinderella '87 from February 15 to March 8, 1987 on Sundays. Both versions were synchronized differently. For the GDR version, Hannelore Fabry wrote the dialogue book, Thilo Henze was responsible for the dialogue direction. In the FRG version, the West German actress Susanne Uhlen played the role of the title character Cindy Cardone (Bonnie Bianco). The DEFA -synchronized version has a length of approx. 110 minutes and the synchronization of the SDR has a running time of approx. 180 minutes. There is an uncut version of the original with 200 minutes, a cinema version with 140 minutes, a short version with 80 minutes and an international version with 120 minutes running time.

In West Germany in 1987 a real "Bonnie Bianco hype" arose after its first broadcast, which among other things resulted in the single Stay from the soundtrack, sung by Bianco and Cosso, reaching number one in the single charts. The LP soundtrack Cinderella '87 landed on March 23, 1987 at number two in the West German Media Control Charts and stayed in the top 100 for a total of 16 weeks.
