Elizabeth: Oh really?
Fred: Yeah really.
Elizabeth: Well what about Cinderella? Remember what happened with her?
Fred: No I don't remember what happened *with her*. I deliberately forgot all about her. She made me puke. I remember the ugly stepsisters, they were great.

This is a great film if you want a laugh. I first seen it when it was first released and enjoyed it then, have recently watched it with my children and they loved it (think the certificate is a bit high, my children are under 15). If you get the chance to watch this film take it, and I dare you not to laugh.
