* ExactWords: The stepmother reneges on her promise to let Cinderella attend the ball when she sees there's still a lentil in the fireplace, stating she told Cinderella she could go if she collected ''all'' of them.



* MamaBear: The Fairy Godmother repeatedly steps in to punish Cinderella's step family for their abuse, using her magic to perform practical jokes on them in a way that Cinderella couldn't possibly be blamed for.



* PetTheDog: Subverted. When Cinderella begs to attend the ball, her stepsisters point out to their mother she ''did'' help them get ready. The stepmother then says Cinderella can go if she removes the lentils spread in the fireplace. If this was a ''true'' moment, her step family would've just let Cinderella go instead of posing an arbitrary challenge. And when Cinderella does complete the task in time, the stepmother throws one of the lentils back into the ashes and insists that she can't go to the ball because she "missed one."

* SheCleansUpNicely: Cinderella's stepfamily are so used to seeing dressed in rags and covered with dirt from doing chores, they don't even recognize her when she's glammed up for the ball. It's worth noting that the Prince ''does'' still recognize her even in her servant garb, which is used as an indicator he truly loves her for herself.

* AbhorrentAdmirer: The Prince is introduced trying to stay interested in a princess looking to marry him as she brags ceaselessly about her family's wealth. He gets fed up and walks out. Later at the ball, he's so repulsed by the stepsisters' obnoxious and pushy behavior he walks out again...and just so happens to see Cinderella arriving at the palace.



* MarryForLove: The Prince is adamant that he won't marry someone he doesn't love and rejects numerous potential brides for this reason. As a result, his parents decide to throw the ball in the hopes he'll fall in love with one of the attendees. No prizes for guessing what happens when Cinderella turns up.



* SparedByTheAdaptation: A lot of Cinderella adaptations kill off Cinderella's dad too, while in this version he survives the whole movie, albeit largely absent until the end.

* AnachronismStew: The film appears to take place in the 19th century and the clothing ''mostly'' reflects this, although the queen's outfit looks better suited to the late 16th or early 17th century with the wide sleeves and ruff.

* DisappearedDad:
** The stepsisters' father is presumably deceased given their mother marries Cinderella's father.
** Downplayed with Cinderella's father; he doesn't die here but he's away on a long business trip for most of the story and so has no idea that his daughter is being mistreated.



* DramaticSlip: Cinderella loses her glass slipper when she trips running through the palace hedge maze; she doesn't go back for it out of fear of being caught.



* FairytaleWeddingDress: Cinderella naturally gets to wear one at the end; it's a classic white dress with a full skirt and long veil.



* NiceGirl: Cinderella is depicted as a kind and gentle young woman. When her father offers to bring back gifts for everyone on his trip, unlike her stepfamily Cinderella says she only wants him to return safely. [[spoiler:She also forgives her stepfamily's cruel treatment, arranging for her stepsisters to marry lords]].



* RapunzelHair: Fairytale princess Cinderella has hair that almost reaches her ''knees''; even when she wears it up it's still waist-length.

* WickedStepmother: Practically a requirement for any Cinderella adaptation.

to:

* WeHardlyKnewYe: Cinderella's mother is in one scene right at the start; she's given a little characterization as a loving wife and mother, then in the next scene we're informed she fell ill and died. Given this ''is'' an adaptation of ''Cinderella'', her mother is DoomedByCanon for the story to work.
* WickedStepmother: Practically a requirement for any Cinderella adaptation. Cinderella's stepmother is a cruel, shallow and domineering woman who treats Cinderella like a slave, refuses to let her go to the ball [[spoiler:and tries to prevent her from marrying the prince]]. It's also implied she mostly married Cinderella's father [[{{Golddigger}} for his money]], especially as the first thing she does when he offers to bring back gifts from his trip is to demand he buy her new dresses.
