Quick Synopsis
Princess Giselle, who comes from a magical animated kingdom where life follows fairy tale rules, is forced out of her home by an evil queen and ends up in the busy, realistic streets of modern-day Manhattan. Unfamiliar with a world that doesn't guarantee happy endings, she struggles to adjust to the city's challenges. As she navigates this new environment, Giselle meets a divorce lawyer who helps her and with whom she begins to develop feelings, despite being engaged to a perfect prince back in her enchanted land. This situation leads her to question whether the idealized version of love from her fairy tale can exist in the real world.
Detailed Synopsis of Enchanted
The beautiful princess Giselle is banished by an evil queen from her magical, musical animated land and finds herself in the gritty reality of the streets of modern-day Manhattan. Shocked by this strange new environment that doesn't operate on a "happily ever after" basis, Giselle is now adrift in a chaotic world badly in need of enchantment. But when Giselle begins to fall in love with a charmingly flawed divorce lawyer who has come to her aid - even though she is already promised to a perfect fairy tale prince back home - she has to wonder: Can a storybook view of romance survive in the real world?
