The Cinderella Story

The film "The Cinderella Story" is about a girl called Sam.


Her father died when she was a kid, and then she went to live with her stepmother, Fionna and the stepsisters. She starts working at Fionna's Café. She wants to study in Princeton, but she can’t afford it.

Sam meets a boy in the chat room. The problem is that he doesn't know who she is, and she doesn't know who he is - they don't say their names. The only thing they know is that they study in the same school, but they don't know if they have already seen each other.

Sam arranges to meet him at a costume party. But she doesn't have a fancy dress. So her friend Honda lends her one.
At the party she meets her "admirer". His name is Austin and he is the most popular boy in the school. Sam doesn’t say her name because she is afraid of being rejected.

Austin discovers who she is. She gets sad and humilliated for being a waitress.

In the end they go to Princeton together and Sam discovers that all the family's things belong to her.

I loved this movie and the actors. Chad Michael Murray performs Austin and Hilary Duff, Sam.

The only part I didn't like is when Sam is humilliated. I think it was too sad!
