Flipped through my Annotated Grimm Fair Tales and this episode is interesting/fascinating actually from a meta perspective. In some respects "Once Upon a Time"'s version is closer to the Grimm version, while Disney's cartoon is closer to the Perrault Version. But in other's...it's something entirely new.
( Variations on Cinderella... )
Very creative re-telling of an ancient tale, merging it with other tales, and addressing new issues - such as children, and time. We are in control of our destiny, but not in control of time. All the characters are at the mercy of time.
