I came across the film version of the musical for my birthday the year it came to the small screen. I have not been lucky enough to see the actually musical on stage but I'm sure I will one day.

I do ever so enjoy the beginning to this adventure, I love how it really builds. This song shows us all the characters wishes and how their adventure will begin.

As we all know poor Cinders has to put up with a lot in her story, I think this is the person you want most to get to her happily ever after.

Hello Little Girl" - Into the Woods


Johnny Depp can't help himself and has to get into the film version of the musical, he also still sings like David Bowie.

Cinderella trying to come to terms with what marrying a prince could mean. The Bakers Wife trying to get all the juicy gossip.




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It Takes Two - Into the Woods



The couple that want a child but many odds are against them.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The witch that is afraid of being alone even though the girl has grown and wants out of his ivory tower.

Meryl really does kick it in this film.




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Any Moment - Into the Woods











The Prince touching things that don't belong to him just because.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cinders giving him some very hard truths.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the stage version the bakers wife is crushed by a huge tree, unlike Emily Blunts bakers wife where she falls off a cliff .
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Last Midnight - Into the Woods




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The ingredients have been collected for the spell but will it be what the expect.

It was not the happily ever after the expected or wanted but it was what they got.
