Belle is a french girl who thinks that she is odd.
Belle is a french girl who thinks that she is odd.
I may have seen this a long time ago as I got the loan of it from a friend of mine and I absolutely loved it. The characters are brilliant, the whole story is superb as it deals with accepting a person for who they are on the outside and not by their appearance.

Here is some things about this film and what my favourite scenes are,charcthers I love and more. Enjoy.



Production
Early versions
Walt Disney sought out other stories to turn into feature films after the success of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, and Beauty and the Beast was among the stories he considered.[4][11] Attempts to develop...

(Young Beast) 'Days in the sun, when my life has barely begun.
Not until my whole life is done, will I ever leave you?'
(Maestrol Cadenza) 'Will I tremble again? To my dear one's
gorgeous refrain?'
(Lumiere & Plumette) 'Will you now forever remain, out of reach
of my arms?'
(Mrs. Potts) 'All those days in the sun! What I'd give to relive just
one, undo what's done, and bring back the light!'
(De La Garderobe) 'Oh, I could sing, of the pain these dark days
days bring. The spell, we're under,
still, it's the wonder of us, I sing of, tonight!
(Belle) 'How in the midst of all this sorrow,
can so much love and hope endure?
I was innocent, and certain,
now I'm wiser, but unsure.
I can't go back into my childhood,
one that my father made secure,
I can feel the change in me,
I'm stronger now,
but still not free!
(All except Belle and Beast) Days in the sun,
will return, we must believe!
As lovers do,
days in the sun will come shining through!'

Tale as old as time
True as it can be
Barely even friends
Then somebody bends
Unexpectedly
Just a little change
Small to say the least
Both a little scared
Neither one prepared
Beauty and the Beast

Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise

Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
Bittersweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong
Certain as the sun
Rising in the east
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast

Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme

Belle:
Little town
It's a quiet village
Ev'ry day
Like the one before
Little town
Full of little people
Waking up to say:

Townsfolk:
Bonjour!
Bonjour!
Bonjour! Bonjour! Bonjour!

Belle:
There goes the baker with his tray, like always
The same old bread and rolls to sell
Ev'ry morning just the same
Since the morning that we came
To this poor provincial town

Baker:
Good Morning, Belle!

Belle:
Good morning, Monsieur.

Baker:
And where are you off to?

Belle:
The bookshop. I just finished the most wonderful story
About a beanstalk and an ogre and a -

Hurry up!

Belle's dad had just arrived at the Beast's castle and he's looking around for somebody, then he heard voices coming from the other room. " Who is that Cogswarth? " I don't know Lumirer. " said Cogswarth. " i'm going to introduce myself." says Lumier. " Hello, HELLO? Belle's dad says. Lumier, " Hello sir, r u lost? " " Who's their? " said Belle's dad. Belle's dad picks up Lumier not knowing he's alive. " who's their? ", says Belle's dad. " I am in your hand. " " How? " " Because i am a candle stick sir. " Lumier said.

Gaston:
Who does she think she is?
That girl has tangled with the wrong man!
LeFou:
Darn right.
Gaston:
No one says "no" to Gaston!
Dismissed! Rejected!
Publicly humiliated! Why, it's more than I can bear.
LeFou:
More beer?
Gaston:
What for? Nothing helps. I'm disgraced.
LeFou:
Who, you? Never! Gaston, you've got to pull yourself together.
Lefou:
Gosh it disturbs me to see you, Gaston
Looking so down in the dumps
Ev'ry guy here'd love to be you, Gaston
Even when taking your lumps
There's no man in town as admired as you
You're ev'ryone's favorite guy
Ev'ryone's awed and inspired by you
And it's not very hard to see...

Belle:
Papa, do you think I'm...odd?
Maurice:
My daughter odd? Where did you get an idea like that?
Belle:
I don't know. It's just that, well, people talk.
Maurice:
They talk about me, too.
Maurice:
No, we're not odd, its true
No fam'ly ever saner
Except one uncle who...well, maybe let that pass
In all you say or do
You couldn't make it plainer
You are your mother's daughter; therefore you are class
Belle:
So I should just accept
I'm simply not like them
Maurice:
They are the common herd
And you should take my word
You are unique: creme de la creme
No matter what you do
I'm on your side
And if my point of view
Is somewhat...

My heart was beating as I was getting ready to get to dinner. Madame de La Grande Bouche was trying to find me a dress that would be just right for dancing.

Madame: What about this black dress? I wore it to perform once!

Belle: Black doesn't really say happy!
Madame: Well then what does say happy to you?
Belle: Yellow!
Madame: Let me see... Ah here! Oh no! It is just some yellow fabric!
Belle: I have to be at dinner at nine! We have only two hours to make a beautiful dress!
Madame: we have some enchanted knitting needles!
Belle: Can you make it quick?
Madame: Of course!

After an hour, Belle was ready. Madame opened the door, and well....the rest is history. Well she did trip on the stairs but still. It was a beautiful evening.

Gaston:
You've been dreaming, just one dream
Nearly all your life
Hoping, scheming, just one theme:
Will you be a wife?
Will you be some he-man's property?
Good news! That he-man's me!
This equation, girl plus man
Doesn't help just you
On occasion, women can
Have their uses too
Mainly to extend the fam'ly tree
Pumpkin, extend with me!
Gaston:
We'll be raising sons galore
Belle:
Inconceivable!
Gaston:
Each built six foot four!
Belle:
Unbelievable!
Gaston:
Each stuffed with ev'ry Gaston gene!
Belle:
I'm not hearing this!
Gaston:
You'll be keeping house with pride!
Belle:
Just incredible!
Gaston:
Oh so gratified
Belle:
So unweddable!...

Beauty and the Beast is the 30th animated feature from Walt Disney Pictures and in my opinion the best of all their movies.

Introduction
Disney's Beauty and the Beast is based on the classic french fairy tale La Belle et la Bête and it was relesed on November 22 in 1991.

The production started in 1988 and Linda Woolverton wrote the script, but in 1989 they scraped the script and started from scratch, a few months after that Kirk Wise and Gary Trousdale joined the production team.

The changes to the script included adding a real villain that later became Gaston and to create the enchanted servents...

Well here is my list with the songs from Beauty and the Beast, i will only write about the songs from the movie but i might use the stage songs in another article who knows.

First of all i just want to say that there is only one song in this movie that i don´t like and that is the one on last place, second i whould like to say that i hope you will share your thoughts on the songs.


Ok then i will start:

At 7th place is my least favorite of the songs Gaston
I have never liked this song as it glorified Gaston and made him seem like a "good guy".
Another reason why this is so far down is because i...

A wealthy merchant lived in a mansion with his three daughters, all of whom were very beautiful, but only the youngest, at fourteen, is named Belle (a French name equivalent to "Beauty") for being lovely and pure of heart; her sisters, in contrast, are wicked and selfish. The merchant eventually loses all of his wealth in a tempest at sea, and he and his daughters must therefore live in a small farmhouse and work for their living. After some years of this, the merchant hears that one of the trade ships he had sent off has arrived back in port, having escaped the destruction of its compatriots;...

Beast:
And in my twisted face
There's not the slightest trace
Of anything that even hints of kindness
And from my tortured shape
No comfort, no escape
I see, but deep within is utter blindness
Hopeless
As my dream dies
As the time flies
Love a lost illusion
Helpless
Unforgiven
Cold and driven
To this sad conclusion
No beauty could move me
No goodness improve me
No power on earth, if I can't love her
No passion could reach me
No lesson could teach me
How I could have love her and made her love me too
If I can't love her, then who?
Long ago I should have seen
All the things I could have been
Careless and unthinking, I moved onward
No pain could be deeper
No life could be cheaper
No point anymore, if I can't love her
No spirit could win me
No hope left within me
Hope I could have loved her and that she'd set me free
But it's not to be
If I can't love her
Let the world be done with me.
As an #ActuallyAutistic Gender Vague enby assigned Female At Birth Belle seems to fit MY "Female #Autism." She would rather read than talk to people aside from her father. Her fantasy world is all-consuming & adventure is her goal! The book she is reading at the beginning of the song is Jack and the Beanstalk which was one of my favorite fairy tales! The fact that Belle enjoys reading about a character of the opposite gender would be considered “Odd”. simply because Belle isn’t “Represented” though her longing for adventure is. Her adventure doesn’t just involve being kidnapped...

Here is a list of my favorite characters from my favorite movie.

I will begin with number 10 and work my way upward to number 1 so i hope you enjoy it and please let me know what you think.
Gaston
Gaston

At 10th and last place is Gaston
Gaston never was a character that i whould concider a favorite, he starts out the movie as a overconfident jerk who can´t take no for an answer which i always found annoying.
Then when he learns of the beast in the castle he changes into a villain that is at least worth your time but his personality didn´t get any better just from that.

But now when i watch the...

Hello Beast!
Hello Beast!
Hi guys, since we heard the latter on Youtube, here are my opinion on both songs.

If I Can't Love Her

Since I got the Original Broadway Musical cast, I fell in love with this song. I was very disappointed that it was not going to make it into the film this year, because it plays an important role especially since it develops the beast's personality more.

Evermore

Okay, I heard Dan Steven's rendition for this year's movie, and I felt that it doesn't hold out as powerful and does not follow suit with If I Can't Love Her.
For strange reasons, it reminds me of Out There from the Hunchback of Notre Dame, especially the tempo and the lyrics itself.

Let The World Be Done With Me!

Ironically, these 2 songs are covered by Josh Groban, go ahead and listen to them, then you'll be the judge.
Toast to the Movie!

Ok so I was over the moon when I got the combo pack of this film yesterday and I was a bit worried that it mightn’t work but luckily they had the DVD along with the Blu Ray version in the pack so I decided to watch it earlier.

The story is about a young French maid named Belle who is a bookworm and a shy person as she seems like an odd person as she is the only one who loves to read books and using her imagination. The first song in the movie is called Belle and I absolutely loved this song as it reflects on who Belle is as a person. She is an only child and her father is an inventor who...

As you can infer, this is my personal rank about Belle's outfits, one of the best dressed Disney animated females, in my opinion.

8. Brownish-red Cloak

Movies: Beauty and the Beast: Belle's Magical World

I know I can't expect so much from a sequel animation, but this cloak is awful. The color is too dark, I've never liked brown. Belle wears it with her blue dress and this is a really terrible combination. The hood also doesn't fit with her hair: brown hood with brown hair? Bad.

Hello! This is my first article and I hope you enjoy it. It's my ranking of Belle's outfits. I know this has been done before and I warn you my choices can be quite previsible. This list includes five gowns (four from the original movie and one from The Enchanted Christmas) and two cloaks.

7. Blue peasant dress

"This is... nice" - Madame de la Grande Bouche (musical)

Yes, it is. I like the shade of blue used and the neckline, but it is very plain. I prefer it with the apron, because it brings more variety in the coloring of the lower half.



6. Christmas gown

Again, it has nice coloring and...
