Cinderella Observation

NannerNanner
in Houston Babies

So I was watching Cinderella with the kids last night, and it occurred to me...

At the end, Cinderella has the other glass slipper, right?  I just don't get that.  When the clock strikes midnight and the carriage turns back into a pumpkin and the horses turn back into mice, her gown turns back into the raggedy dress she was wearing before, right?  So why was the shoe the only thing not to turn back to it's previous state?

Plot hole!

    i always thought it was a memento type thing. she didn't turn something into the glass slippers they were something special right? and the shoe the prince found didnt dissapear.

    Well, that's an interesting theory.  But she also had a headband, earrings and gloves that weren't anything else before, but those disappeared...

    Maybe because the shoes were separated?  So the "magical" bond was broken because they weren't together as a pair?  You know like in many of these shows with curses (Freaky Friday, Hot Chick and shows like that) the character always have to get all the pieces of  x,y,z together to make the spell work.

    I always wondered that, too.  How did the prince have the glass slipper if it should have turned back into something else?

    That was my theory too.  Because they weren't on or near her person when it turned midnight.

    I always saw it as something her fairy Godmother let her have as a gift.  Because after everything else turns back the mice are telling her to look at her foot and she hugs the glass slipper and says thank you to her fairy Godmother.

    Of course how she gets both at the end when 1 has been shattered - who knows.  I think they bibbidi boppidi boo'd up another one. ;-)

    Okay, I totally forgot about that scene.  I retract everything I said!  Zip it!

    If it is magic, anything is possible.
