Cinderella Meets Fella is a 1938 Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies directed by Tex Avery and written by Tedd Pierce, based on the fairy tale of Cinderella.^[2] The short was released on July 23, 1938, and features the third appearance of an early version of Elmer Fudd.^[3]

Plot

The story starts out as normal, but Cinderella notices the Fairy Godmother is gone, so she calls the police, who find her in a bar. After some of Fairy Godmother's mixed up magic, Cinderella gets to the ball and finds Prince Charming (a.k.a. Elmer). They dance and have fun. The story continues as normal and when Prince Charming goes to Cinderella's house to return her glass slipper, he finds out she got tired of waiting and that she's in the third row of a "Warner Bros. picture show". Prince Charming cries until he finds out that Cinderella comes back and then they head off together to the tenth row.

Reception

Animation historian Greg Ford writes, "Cinderella certifies Avery's standing as a modernist in its distanced refurbishing of the hoary old Cinderella narrative."^[4]
