  • I'm experiencing a major cognitive dissonance watching this video...Iris is not even plain, much less ugly.

  • Jenna Harrison is sooooooooooo beautiful ;)

  • OMG RUTH.... UGH

  • iris is prettier than clara wtf

  • wait im confused why is iris pretty...... she is suspposed to be plain almost ugly

  • Ok that woman that was standing outside Clara's window almost gave me a heart attack!

  • If they're gonna make a "Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister" film, at they should at least make Iris REALLY ugly. She's not ugly AT ALL.

  • i think iris is gorgeous! why are they calling her ugly???

  • clara is a spoilt brat who tinks she's d worlds most beautiful girl, she needs to no dat she eh even all dat! lol

  • hahahahhahahahaha Ruth is so epic!!! 7:06

  • is clara supposed to be cinderella?????in this one

  • AHHH... I now hate that my name is Clara ._.

  • Comment removed

  • @IceBabeLuvsYuh Read House of the Spirits and you will feel much better. Clara in there is a really amazing character. :)

  • @IceBabeLuvsYuh

    Don't hate it. Clara is a beautiful name.

  • I'm not sure why they keep saying clara is so pretty. Her eyes turn down in the corners.. that's homely as hell. Pretty eyes tend to be straight and turn up a wee bit at the corners. They're also too high on her face.. A pretty face tends to have eyes that are lower down on the face. It's not that she's ugly. But her eyes remind me of a basset hound's.

  • so clara's dad is essentially a pimp. Nice.

    Seriously can you imagine the modern day equivalent of that? "Daddy needs to drum up some business. Put a bikini on and pose for the nice photographer so daddy can hand the wallets out at his next board meeting"

    Brr.. No wonder clara is so fucked..

  • The whole book, I had no clue who was Cinderella...they All seem to resemble her.

    is it just me, or is this movie skipping around parts of the book A LOT??

  • EITHER IRIS HAS NO BOOBS OR THAT CORSET IS WAY TOO TIGHT!!!

  • oh god clara is as stubborn as I was years ago....I'm embarassed. People, you actually will find yourself if you lose everything. It happened to me, and I'm glad for it...

  • hmmnn... i think Iris is much more of a beauty than Clara.... (not that I'm saying that Clara is not beautiful... she is...) Its just that, I like Iris' beauty more...

  • this is a very real portrayal of the story...instead of spoiled brats, iris and ruth are just regular girls in irregular circumstances. the stepmother is a witch but reforms later. and clara has real fears but they're unfounded; she's spoiled and needs to get over it. and does. Soo...it's a story of bad becoming good and good becoming better.

  • Clara. She reminds me of a grow-up version of Claudia from Interview with a vampire.

  • claras poor dad being so easily tricked by that wretched woman, and clara is a total bitch, but i guess it makes sense cuz of how she has grown up and iris is very pretty, i think the whole ordeal with the painting had to do with something like unrealistic percetption of oneself.

  • hey shes from greace

  • Iris is not ugly! I'd look like a freak next to her! They're CRAZY!

  • Stockard Channing is awesome!

  • cinderella is supposedly not like that kind of girl Clara is..

  • @uhrrrrrangels clara really isn't as spoiled as perceived, because she is seeking for one to look past her beauty, for what she really is. I laughed because I thought she was spoiled at first as well...

  • they made the ugly step sister more like a cinderella than THE cinderella. If they dye that cinderella's hair, she'd look like a mean manager that used to supervise me like an evil step sister. She was jealous of me working well with my sister at the job.

  • I find it annoying that people are judging this movie before the plot line actually unfolds fully...

  • I'm tired of all this beauty wining its dumb you know your only beautiful for what's on the inside

  • who is the scarred face woman with the rat????

  • I don't find Clara beautiful at all, at least not her personality. The one who is beautiful is Iris. And personally, I really like Ruth. She might be clumsy, but I think she is cute.

  • if i were put in iris's place, id be just the same... clara needs to be put in her place, even if she does think it mean

  • ruth is really ugly but iris is kind of pretty!

  • Iris's mother's ambitiousness is getting annoying

  • iris has such a strange voice

  • Caspar looks a lot like thecomputernerd01's friend tyler...thumbs up if you actually know who that is and see the connection

  • ehh clara face is so dropey

  • I kind of get it now. Its not suppose to mean iris is ugly literally it just mean that she was ugly in the inside the way she treated cinderella aka clara. But this is suppose to show that iris wasnt really mean to clara, clara was just a brat who was really mean to them so iris just played some kindda mean tricks on her that looked mean from clara point of view lol. idk this the first time im watching n trying to put the pieces together.

  • Iris look like the girl in "never been kissed"

  • ok from which angle is Iris ugly??

  • @p0is0ngal From the painting. Which was screwed up...but I guess art is purposefully ugly sometimes, even when the model isn't.

  • Comment removed

  • I like ruth, she seems like she would be a very very good friend, I like Iris also thats a beautiful name,

  • I'm just curious, but is ruth supposed to have down syndrome or something. It's just, it would clear up a few things for me

  • @camizzle222 she has some form of autism, not down syndrome.

  • @lostchild06 ahh, thank you

  • i would've liked to see claras mom in the film. she was such a character in the book, and it was a nice touch that iris's mom kills clara's. pity.

  • Oh Gee, I do love Ruth when shes grinning at Clara

  • Oh geez, Grease flashbacks O.o

  • Clara is more intelligent than others believe. She centainly knows what the mother is up to. The mother is using the reality of the situation for her own means. Bad in some ways, as he seems a sweet man but it might draw out Clara more. And I'd bet that witchy looking woman is her mother. Well done movie tho'. :)

  • lmao @ 7:05

  • @ch3lseaislame cuute :)))

  • If the brunette sister puts the same time and effort cordinating her clothes better and plucking her eyesbrows as the time and effort she puts in doing her (ridiculous) intricate braided hairdo, she'd be just as pretty as Iris and Clara. Poor thing isn't ugly, she just needs a better stylist is all lol

  • Casper and Iris are so cute together!

  • i think iris is stunning

  • ok as soon as i realised that english accent was fake i also realised that the mother is rizzo!

  • ruth is the only chill laid back one....in my opinion the ither 2 or both snobby chicks..just in different ways..one is rich and the other blond is broke as hell lol.....the mom is a crook...ruth is pretty because she is so pure

  • Iris is pretty idk why they keep saying she's ugly

  • i love rizzo haha

  • i love ruth lol! 

  • clara may have the 'pretty' looks but she has an ugly personality

    iris may not be as 'pretty' but she is a beautiful person :)

  • @01902861046

    This false dichotomization has only served to hurt those on both ends of the appearance scale.

  • Iris is so pretty! Ruth is a quiet sister

  • god i hate how vain clara is

    just because she's pretty doesn't make it ok for her to act that way

    ruth is so sweet

    i love her

  • I thought Clara was supposed to have wheat-colored hair that was white in the sunlight! Sorry, but that's a very nice image that they didn't keep in the book. I actually almost thought Iris was Clara.

  • "It's an act! My father is NOT that witty" lol

  • Comment removed

  • is it me or is iris really looking more beautiful than clara between 4:48- 5:05 ??

  • @bastardlyspeaking i really think iris is more beautiful than clara

  • Except for the step mother, she is just ugh!

  • When you look at Cinderella from each different character's POV, it can become quite controversial. Each have their own reasons for the way they act. I believe that if you keep an open mind, you can be neutral between each character. Everyone has a point of view, say yours and leave it at that.

  • i think iris is Really pretty...i dont get you people who say shes plain looking

  • Those ugly bitches being mean to clara for no reason.I hope clara ends up with the prince anyway.Iris can have the poor painter assistant.

  • I think Iris is beautiful and i don't understand why everyone says she's so ugly! Personally i don't think Clara is drop dead gergous at all and her attitude just makes her an ugly spoilt bitch.

    Personally i think everyone is beauitful in their own right and if you look beyond the obvious you might be able to see it.

  • is the stepmom wicked? I dun really understand what she's doing.

  • @luna4ever36 She's trying to seduce Clara's dad so that he'll marry her and she (and Iris and Ruth) can live with him in the nice house.

  • In a way, I feel like Iris is prettier than Clara. [april.]

  • This is a good movie, but I have to say that, although this is supposed to be the other side of the story of Cinderella, it doesn't in the least resemble it.

  • clara is a bitch

  • Honestly I don't think Clara is that beautiful. If you gave Ruth some new clothes and did her hair I think she would be much prettier

  • This story is a bit of a far cry from Cinderella.

  • I don't like Iris. I think she has a snotty attitude. I'll see how the rest of this movie goes but I guess she is still going to be portrayed as a mean step sister because it looks like she sure can turn into one. She's not humble and even though Cinderella is not nice Iris can try another tactic than being all snutty back to her.

  • Soooo is Ruth supposed to be retarded? or just slow?

  • I love Ruth's hair!

  • I prefer ruth - she's so ... normal and funny:)

  • Wrong wrong wrong wrong! This is not how the story goes

  • the painting shows her inner misery, mainly caused by her mother

  • That painting doesnt do Iris lustice. It makes her look like a old lady. Clara isn't pretty at all, the producer should have used iris if they wanted someone pretty to play Clara.

  • @MMMage05 I don't think so. They are both very pretty. One isn't necessarily prettier than the other. What makes Clara unattractive is the way she presents herself. She's so nasty in this part, it really makes her look ugly.

  • @MMMage05 huh clara is a beauty

  • clara is so rude. i think i iris is pretty. and ruth is funny

  • Clara is nothing but a spoiled brat! She is beautiful but she is so annoying! everyone would prefer iris to her.

  • clara is annoying

  • wait whos cinderella whos the ugly stepsitas????

  • @lilyangel11

    Good question xD

  • Iris is actually quite beautiful...I don't know what everyone else is talking about. <3

    Clara's a spoiled brat.

  • @soulchild180 Yeah sometimes I wish they picked an ugly girl to play Iris

  • Clara is a butt head, I'd love to slap her around.

  • @ 09:07---> "If you had them, people would still say you was ugly." Goodness, Clara, rude much?! BTW, I think Iris is beautiful!

  • it seems to me iris is cinderella, no matter what the author wants her to be, coz da girl dats suppose to b cinderella is a total loser.....and iris is the poor girl dat need a price to rescue her instead

  • @KayKrazie but.. that's the point. That a story can be very different depending on who is telling it. There is no "truth" to any story> merely the interpretations of each person who was part of it. To say NOTHING of the interpretations of each person who hears it. Hence how fairy tales came to be in the first place.

  • 7.12 the other sister was on the floor n now shes behind iris o.o

  • Ack! Matthew Goode!!!

  • the dudes dauther is cinderella i think cuz she whinny

  • At first when she said "it's an act" I thought she meant, "I know you're mom's a gold digger!!" But then she said "my father's not that witty" LOL that I did not expect!

  • I think Iris is prettier than cinderella in some ways...and she's not so whiny.

  • @honeygreentea17

    ya i agree

  • 8:08 Casper looks GORGEOUS...

  • I see what you mean! Yes he does. :D

  • I don't think Iris is ugly. They should have picked an uglier actress.

  • shes not supposed to be ugly shes supposed to be plain

  • Wow. That dude's daughter is such a whiner.

  • what year is this?

  • I'm confused.. in part two, Clara sounded like she -did- want to be painted, and her father sounded like he -didn't- want her to be painted, how did it get so turned around?

  • he was Just Protecting her :) She relli didnt want to be painted

  • hollywood always change stuff around

  • After watching it for a while I am starting to like the girl who plays iris..

  • i love the girl she is tooooooooo funny i don't have enough sense to know what to have enough sense about

  • the music kills it, i mean it's supposed to be dark. They hasn't been any contrast at all in mood because the music the the exact same merry go round shit in every scene. wtf?

    and i don't like how the mother and iris are so happy together and up themselves.

    wrong wrong wrong

  • I don't like Ruth talking.. I don't like that Henrika is ALREADY DEAD ! I don't like the Master's "merry-go round" attitude, I don't like the fact that they don't mention at all the master's "side" work ( which I thought was probably one of the best parts of the story and character insighters), the fact that I used to imagine Iris a bit uglier.. and that this was produced by Disney D; !!!

    They took so much away... :/ !

  • I agree completely, I thought the novel had more of a somber undertone especially at the beginning to the novel when they're fleeing England, but at the opening of this movie the music is all happy-go-lucky to the point you expect to see a couple of whistling cartoon birds fly into the scene; it's Disney what are you going to do?

    But I missed the part in the book about the "side" work. What do you mean by that??

  • But also remember that the entire book was told through Iris's point of view and that it isn't until the epilogue that the last of mysteries are unraveled. Recall that the epilogue is told through Ruth, who explains that she doesn't agree with the way that Iris portrayed her; perhaps the director used this as artistic license to do his/her own thing with the interpretation of the book.

  • i'm trying to get used to the fact that ruth can talk... it's a good take on the novel though!

  • didn't the mom star in grease????

  • yeah, her name is stockard channing. she played rizzo

  • I knew it!!!

    it's in the eyes!!

  • I think Iris is really. pretty...

  • Clara´s eyes are rather ugly if you ask me. Iris face is far more luminous and her eyes are magnificent... plus she is is much more clever!

  • She is clever so we must love her :-D a good brain is the essence of beauty. I agree.

  • clara is a stuck up brat.

  • Does Iris and Casper get together? Plz someone tell me im going to be rly sad if they dont =(

  • Of course they do.

  • Clara is no prettier than Iris. I think they're on the same level lookswise. Plus, Clara's frizzy curls are annoying

  • No her hair is pretty according to the fashion and she has well proportioned symmetrical features. But iris has the chrismatic air her beauty grows with time, and her lack of beauty makes her look at people closely, giving her greater insight. while clara's beauty (at the moment) is worth only a stare.

    But we have to remember she was kidnapped and because of spoiled.

  • Wtf. Clara is mean AND ugly. lol.

    Iris is actually a lot better than her!

  • ozymandeas from the watchmen! (casper)

  • tbh out of the two, clara is more stereo typically beautiful.... but i think Iris has nicer, softer features. :)

  • i luve this movie

  • The 17th century TUlipmania bubble actually existed, and when the crisis came, it ruined thousands of investors...

  • Channing does quite a credible British accent

  • It's funny, Clara and Iris both have classically pretty features, but when each of them open their mouth to speak, Clara turns ugly, and Iris becomes even more beautiful.

  • @DassMorris

    She is beatuful, isn´t she. I cant believe anybody thinks her ugly..

  • iris is waaaaaaay more pretty than clara. clara is UGLY.

  • very true!! and the painting did NOT do justice to Iris

  • @Saikadelic No, but it wasn't meant to. Her being painted that way brought out the flowers more which the artist and the merchant were trying to achieve. The merchant is trying to sell his flower and has a great deal of his capital bound up in it. The paintings are advertsing tools. I'm not sure why Iris's mother keeps putting her down and making her believe it. Sad for a parent to do. Maybe she just doesn't want a spoiled girl on her hands like Clara. Iris is pretty and intelligent.

  • clara is not pretty at all. I dare say iris is the prettier of the pair

  • Iris has the cutest voice.

  • i luve iris's spunk gives her character life

  • what did she put in her drink?

  • she's lying she seems to have no dignity at all. O.O lolol shes such a cougar. heheheheh

  • i don't get it..iris isn't even ugly...

    they didn't do a very good job of casting these characters..

  • Wasnt the mom in the movie Grease

  • Yes that's right..! :D

  • Her name was Rizo in Grease.

  • stockard channing.

  • love her.

  • me too!

  • I think out of all the characters they sort of messed up here, Margarethe is the worst in the movie. They did not get her right at all! Which I hate because she was my fav in it. She was cruel yes, but she was well spoken and knew how to survive. I liked how she was given more of a character than the 'cruel witch' in Cinderella. This version of her is more like the disney one.

  • But I think Stockard Channing did a good part w/ the role

  • I love Stockard, but her nose looks 'wrong?' Surgery?

  • Ya, she had plastic surgery that kinda made her whole face look wierd. I think she is still really pretty, but I think she would be even prettier if she didn't get surgery. She's my #1 fav... EVER!!! Haha! :D

  • Watching this, I've just sort of realised how brutally honest all of Gregory Maguire's characters were. I mean, here, Master Schoenmacker openly says that it would be strange for Casper and Iris to come together, and in Wicked Frex openly admits that he prefered Nessarose to Elphaba. I just love these characters :P

  • I thought that the Master had said that stranger things had happened, in regards to Casper and Iris coming together.

  • Which implies that it is strange in the first place
