Fairy Godmother: "Yes, my child, but like all dreams, well, I'm afraid this can't last forever. You have only until midnight, and-"
Cinderella: "Midnight? Oh, thank you-"
Fairy Godmother: "Oh, now just a minute. You must understand, my dear: On the stroke of twelve, the spell will be broken, and everything will be as it was before."

The
1950 Walt Disney feature film "Cinderella" was based on the French
version of the tale by Charles Perrault, entitled "Cinderella" and
written in 1698. The film was the second in the series of great Princess
films developed by Disney, the first being Snow White in 1937. The
character of Cinderella is usually front and center in the pantheon of
Disney Princess merchandise, perhaps because she is the only Princess
not to be of a noble blood line who ended up marrying a Prince and
becoming royalty.
Cinderella was animated by both Marc Davis and Eric Larson, however the two animators had different perceptions of the character, with Davis preferring elegance and Larson opting for simplicity. This actually worked in the film's favor, resulting in Cinderella being a much more complicated character than her predecessor Snow White. As with other Disney films, the studio hired actress Helene Stanley to perform the live-action reference for Cinderella. She would later return to the studio for the characters of Aurora in "Sleeping Beauty," 1959 and Anita Radcliffe in "One Hundred and One Dalmatians," 1961.
According to Christopher Finch, from his book "The Art of Walt Disney":
"Disney insisted that all scenes involving human characters should be shot first in live-action to determine that they would work before the expensive business of animation was permitted to start. The animators did not like this way of working, feeling it detracted from their ability to create character. The animators understood the necessity for this approach and in retrospect acknowledged that Disney had handled things with considerable subtlety."

About
400 women and girls auditioned for the voice role of Cinderella, but
the role ended up going to Ilene Woods. Woods, who at the time worked on
the radio and did not know anything about the audition, was asked one
day by her colleagues Mack David and Jerry Livingston to sing a song
from Cinderella. Without her knowledge, her recording was given by her
friends to Disney Studios. After listening to the material Walt Disney
immediately decided that he had found the voice with which to speak and
sing the character of Cinderella and contacted Ilene.
