Méliès had previously adapted Cinderella thirteen years earlier, in an 1899 film which had been his first big success. The remake was made in the summer and autumn of 1912, and then edited by Ferdinand Zecca, who cut the film down — reportedly to half the length Méliès intended — and is also probably responsible for adding the cross-cutting effects and medium shots seen in the film.  In 1944, Méliès's widow Jehanne d'Alcy claimed to the Cinémathèque française that Zecca had "massacred" the film, cutting out some of the best scenes.  
Though mistreated by her cruel stepmother and stepsisters, Cinderella is able to attend the royal ball through the help of a fairy godmother.
