Ever After

The 1998 film Ever After is an adaptation of the romantic fairy tale Cinderella, the story of a beautiful girl named Danielle de Babaroc (played by Drew Barrymore).

After the sudden death of Danielle's father Auguste de Babaroc, his wife (Danielle's stepmother) the Baroness Rodmilla de Ghent and her two daughters Marguerite and Jacqueline take over Danielle's rightful home and make her a servant in her own house.

Not until later, teenage Danielle encounters, by accident, Henry the Prince of France who has been forced to wed a Spanish princess. Giving the Prince's choice to wed someone he loves, he continuously runs away. By pretending to be a Countess, Danielle gets wooed by the Prince (who does not know she is just a servant).

Eventually, a ball is planned for the Prince to choose a bride and invitations are sent out to eligible ladies, including Danielle, her stepmother and her two stepsisters. On the night of the ball, the Baroness finds out that Danielle has secretly been seeing the Prince and locks her away in a dungeon to prevent her from attending.

Will Danielle and the Prince live happily ever after? or will the Baroness get her way at becoming an in-law to royalty?


Ever After is also the name of a novel in the Williamsburg series by Elswyth Thane.
