Ella's childhood has moments that look like a dream. The sky is filled with clouds of horses, birds and butterflies as she runs through a meadow filled with yellow flowers. She even feeds a goat!

Although it's all very beautiful, director Kenneth Branagh says that he opted not to include the moment in the film because "sometimes less is more."

"We felt we had too rich a mixture for the feather-light tale," he explains in the clip.

Branagh added: "In the end, the shorthand that we used in the finished movie allowed us to establish this happy house and fun relationship with animals much more quickly than we realized."
