Fairies don't usually show people obvious signs that they are fairies; only Lucinda does. The fairies dislike lucinda and the only way you can signify between a fairy and a human is their feet which are tiny. |
The fairies in the movie are obviously fairies, and they don't hate lucinda as much. |
|
Prince Charmond is kind and fair, intent on being a good king like his father who is alive. |
Prince Char doesn't even know how to act like a king.

Lucinda turns into a squirrel for three months, and then becomes obedient for three more. She learns a lesson and never gives gifts using big magic again. |
Lucinda doesn't learn a lesson and doesn't care about the people she bestowed horrible gifts on. (which I think is absolutely terrible since people could have the same fate as ella) |
