With so many versions of the quintessential fairy tale, we forget which is which. This one casts Jerry Lewis as an abused young man whose life changes when he meets his Fairy Godfather (Ed Wynn). Personally, my favorite rendition of the story was the time on "Gilligan's Island" when Mrs. Howell dreamed that she was Cinderella and Gilligan was her Fairy Godfather.
Jerry Lewis does an OK job in "Cinderfella", but now that we know what a jerk he is in real life, it weakens the whole thing. And I don't know why they have to stock it with songs.
Weird to think that Fairy Godfather is the father of "Dr. Strangelove"'s Gen. Bat Guano.
