Cinderella 1929-2010

Today 'The Guardian' posted an obituary for Cinderella. Oh. Wait. No. It was an obituary for the voice of Cinderella, Ilene Woods. Or was it an obituary for Ilene herself. Well. The Guardian, weren't entirely sure. All they could really say was something about Cinderella helping the studio out in sales after the war.



Has it come to this? That there is a man sitting in the Guardian office called Brian Sibley who has lost his inner child, and it's partner magic. Poor Mr. Sibley, no doubt, thought he was onto comic gold, or at least, morbid witticism, or in vogue nonchalance in handing in his copy. Should someone tell him Cinderella can't die? Or that the little boy inside of him already has?
