Beauty and the Beast has so much meaning for so many – it is an amazing story about love, family, and respect. It shows an amazing bond between Belle and Maurice – her father.
This movie was launched in late 1991 and was the 30th Disney animated feature film to be released. It was a huge hit, with both fans and critics, and is so very popular with the young and older generations even today.
The cast was superb and it is to this day a very timeless movie with the amazing Angela Lansbury playing Mrs. Potts and Jerry Orbach playing Lumiere and with Paige O’Hara playing Belle.
For Disney’s Beauty and the Beast live-action movie, Disney has taken a classic fairy tale to create an enchanting story with timeless themes. It tells the story of Belle, a young woman who learns that beauty is only skin deep when she meets a beast in his castle. It also shows her bravery as she breaks free from society’s constraints to become something more than just another pretty face.
