A novel by [[Gregory Maguire]] (also known for ''[[Wicked (novel)|Wicked]]'' and ''[[Mirror Mirror (novel)|Mirror Mirror]]'') and, later, a direct-to-TV movie, ''Confessions of an Ugly Sister'' is a revisionist rewriting of the story of [[Cinderella (novel)|Cinderella]], focusing on the point of view of Iris and how she became the stepsister of the mysteriously beautiful Clara.
Line 6 ⟶ 9:
Iris sees the world through fanciful eyes, and still believes in fairy tales, causing her to question whether her new stepsister's beauty and grace may be supernatural.

* [[Adaptational Attractiveness]]: Iris is repeatedly described as painfully plain faced, but is played by a genuinely lovely looking girl in the movie.
* [[Adult Child]]: Henrika deliberately keeps Clara in a childlike state in spite of her actually being in her mid-teens.
