Discussion Literature / Cinderella

The editing is unfortunately locked; it needs to be pointed out that that the 1973 Czech film does not exactly qualify for Adapted Out, because the version of the tale it is based on, as recorded by Božena Němcová in the 19th century, indeed does not include most of the elements listed as things being "adapted out", and does indeed feature the nuts as the magical source of dresses. So unless you consider them to be adapted out of the folk tale (questionable), in those particular elements the adaptation is actually faithful. I'd have to check about the two stepsisters vs one stepsister...

Would you consider Aladdin to be a Spear Counterpart to Cinderella?
