A scene from Cinderella 1950
Cinderella

Why, it's like a dream. A wonderful dream come true.

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.

Cinderella

Oh, I understand, but... it's more than I ever hoped for.

Fairy Godmother

Bless you, my child. I... [realizing] Goodness me! It's getting late. Hurry up, dear. The ball can't wait. Have a good time. Dance, be gay. Now, off you go. You're on your way.

In this scene

FG Fairy Godmother Verna Felton
