Princess for a Day

The opening scene is reminiscent of the movie Madeline, transitioning from animation to live-action. I loved the movie references, especially that of Pretty Woman, which is befitting of this beautifully simplistic film. From the makeover, etiquette lessons, fashion montage, and she even leaves the money just like Julia Roberts did. The villains are not an outsider, but family, the grandparents/in-laws. The almost kiss was surprisingly an actual kiss. The nitpick would be the obvious green screen used for the car windows, but they were clearly not allowed to drive these very expensive cars. The leading man is no Richard Gere, but the refined English accent makes up for it. Our leading lady sounds just like Scarlett Johansson. And it all culminates with that fairytale ending.
