Reviews
The Magic Riddle
I fondly remember watching this movie as a child.
It combines the stories of Snow White and the 7 Dwaves, Cinderella, Pinocchio, Little Red Riding Hood and more, all in the space of one hour.
Follow Cindy on this magical journey as she takes on her evil stepmother and sisters, falls in love with the handsome boy next door, makes friends with the Dwarves, gets ready for the masquerade ball AND tries to find her father's will.
Unfortunately this movie has never been released on DVD which I believe is a real shame. With VHS quickly becoming obselete, soon it will become impossible for future generations to enjoy this timeless classic.
