Todd has packed each page full of not only factual information of the film itself, but also in-depth character analyses, which serve as various lenses through which to view the film's events. This, combined with the beautiful misty gray-blue layout and numerous, gracefully-orchestrated personal touches and opinions, make this one of Todd's "classic" sites. WELL DONE GOOD SIR! :D

Despite the fact that I didn't expect to like it so much since it didn't have as much fantasy as other versions, I really enjoyed the character of Danielle and how she came to life with a more realistic version of Cinderella, while still maintaining the basic concepts of the story. I think that's something that you captured very well with how the site sections are divided. The page I liked best was happily ever after.
I accept your challenge, "high prince", but I am no general.

I swear I replied to this already! Sorry about that, everyone!

I didn't even realize my Danielle site was even nominated for a while, so I was shocked to go vote and find it tied for winning with Mayumi's beautiful Snape shrine. I felt honored to have my shrine listed in her shrine's company, and I would have been just as happy had she won this. Check out her shrine if you haven't yet! I know she put a lot of work into it, and it definitely shows.

Shrines to movie characters are so rare, and I didn't know how my Danielle site would be received when I first made it. I'm so happy to see that so many of you love it! Danielle is not only my favorite Drew Barrymore role, but one of my favorite film characters ever. Her story is inspiring, and her story and character has motivated me to see the light in every situation, even when times are bad. This shrine means a lot to me, and so does this award. There are a couple more sections I would like to add to it, so look forward to updates!

Thank you everyone who nominated, voted, and left such awesome comments! You guys' enthusiasm and support is a big reason why I continue to make shrines today. <3
