A Cinderella Story: Christmas Wish (2019)

A Cinderella Story: Christmas Wish is a Christmas movie combines the elements of the traditional fairy tale of Cinderella and the holiday spirit. The film is the fifth installment of the A Cinderella Story film series. Although the movie is classified as a teen comedy musical film and hence, the main target audience is teenagers, the songs within the movie's soundtrack album would charm all viewers. A Cinderella Story: Christmas wish tells the story of a young teenage girl named Kat who dreams of becoming a successful singer and songwriter, but is left in the care of her stepmother, Deirdra, and her two stepsisters, Joy and Grace. Throughout the movie, viewers will see some noticeable references to the more classic tales of Cinderella. One major reference to the classic fairy tale of Cinderella is the stepmother and stepsisters' treatment towards Kat. Like the stepmother and the stepsisters in the stories of Cinderella, Kat's stepmother and stepsisters are cruel, evil, vain, and snobbish. They treat Kat as if she's their maid, and work her to the bone. They even have full control over Kat's inheritance money and her wages, knowing that there's nothing Kat can do about her living conditions. The way Dierdra, Joy, and Grace view Kat as a servant rather than a member of their family reflects Cinderella's cruel treatment by her step-family. Kat's dreams of becoming a great singer and songwriter reflect the common theme of Cinderella showcasing her singing voice throughout  traditional Cinderella franchise. Kat and her best friend, ISla, works as singers at a Christmas-themed entertainment park called "Santa Land." Isla, along with Kat's pet dog Bruno, are Kat's best and only confidantes that she can rely on for company, support, and comfort. Bruno also plays a role in Kat's life, similar to Cinderella's animal friends in the traditional Cinderella
