Ella Enchanted (8/12) Movie CLIP - Somebody to Love (2004) HD

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Ella (Anne Hathaway) is ordered to sing and dance to the song 'Somebody to Love

FILM DESCRIPTION:
Adapted from author Gail Carson Levine's award-winning children's book of the same name, the Miramax-financed modern fantasy Ella Enchanted is directed by Tommy O'Haver and stars The Princess Diaries alumna Anne Hathaway. Ella (Hathaway) lives in a magical world in which each child, at the moment of their birth, is given a virtuous "gift" from a fairy godmother. Ella's so-called gift, however, is obedience. This birthright proves itself to be quite the curse once Ella finds herself in the hands of several unscrupulous characters whom she quite literally cannot disobey. Determined to gain control of her life and decisions, Ella sets off on a journey she hopes will end with the lifting of the curse in question. The path, however, isn't easy -- Ella must outwit a slew of unpleasant magical creatures ranging from ogres to talking books with evil plots. Though perilous, Ella's adventures turn out to be necessary obstacles in the path toward finding herself, and maybe even true love along the way. Ella Enchanted also features Cary Elwes, who has starred in a fantasy feature himself (the widely acclaimed The Princess Bride), Hugh Dancy, and Patrick Bergin, among others.

Fun fact: "Somebody To Love" was not the original song choice. Director Tommy O'Haver discovered that Anne Hathaway didn't have very good chemistry for a more classical "fairy-tale" song, which was their first choice. In the end, O'Haver and Hathaway were relaxing when Hathaway started dancing to and singing along to Queen's "Somebody To Love" and they both decided that this was it.

[BlaiddDrwg]

1:20 - When she sings that line, it looks like she's thinking about the curse and how she wants to find a way to break it. Love the expression of defiance she has after that

[Maxiiiiii-]

“Do whatever you want with my music just’ don’t make it boring”

Freddie Mercury

[readymason]

Those giants sure are great backup singers!

[LilyGrace]

The first time she ever sang in an acting role. Can we just give props to this girl right here? Considering the short gap between this and Les Mis, that's incredibly impressive.

[silverlimosine]

I’m 30 years old. My best childhood friend just admitted to me a week ago, ON MY wedding day that she stole this DVD from me when I was in high school. Perhaps the best drunken confession a bridesmaid will ever give.

[becca]

after seeing this song in the new cinderella (2021) i had to come back to this to remind me that it can be done well.
edit: idc what any of you say ella enchanted is lightyears better than Cinderella 2021 sorry not sorry.

[iancohen]

This is definitely a guilty pleasure movie. I never admitted I own it in DVD.

[Alyxxloveablexx]

she’s SO great at playing the shy character that breaks out of her shell and gains confidence ugh i love her

[rexmm]

If you want a Cinderella musical, you don't need the Camila Cabello one, you need the Anne Hathaway one, this movie have it all, good music, great actors and not an usual love history

[Fcutdlady]

Queen somebody to love . impressive never thought Queens music would be a used in a kids film

[IvanMejia]

Anne Hathaway is one of the most complete actors working today. She can act and sings very well.

[angelrose_]

As a Queen fan, I screamed a tiny bit when I heard this come on. It was absolutely beautiful and Freddie would have been so proud.

[d]

0:10 me singing in front of people
1:48 me in the shower when no ones home

[johnnydancer]

I love this woman. She does a terrific job.

[christine]

Anyone here after watching Amazon's original Cinderella with Camila Cabello?

You just can't beat this masterpiece

[asherujudo]

As a 2000s kid, this movie was the first time I ever actually heard this song. I love when movies and tv shows introduce you to songs you would never have discovered on your own.

[EllieC]

This movie was how I discovered this song (I was only born in 1996 before you crucify me).

[triciaramgoolam]

When I was younger I thought this song was written for this movie, cuz I didn't know that songs could be used like that in movies. I thought so because the lyrics fit Ella's situation so well. Only when I was older and with the power of the internet did I realize that Queen actually did this song.

[bibi-yygq]

accidentally stumbled upon the 2021 version of this and had to come back to cleanse myself and my spirit, thank you anne hathaway
