A Modern Disney Masterpiece

I don't know why I've waited so long to review this film. It is simply one of the greatest animated features of all time. From the wonderful songs to the wonderful cast to the lovely animation, this film hits on all cylinders. It's a moral story as old as time itself: Beauty lies not upon the face, but within the heart. If you haven't seen this movie, please consider renting or buying it soon. It doesn't matter what age you are because this movie appeals to all age groups.

Our heroine is, of course, the lovely Belle, who gives her freedom up so that her father can be released from Beast's castle. Beast's servants, especially Lumiere, Cogsworth, and Mrs. Potts, devise a plan for Belle to fall in love with Beast in order to break the curse that all of them suffer from. Of course, much like in "Frankenstein," that which is misunderstood is considered a monster and Belle's arrogant would-be suitor, Gaston, sets out to free his damsel-in-distress.

The voice cast is wonderful. It includes Robby Benson (Beast), Angela Lansbury (Mrs. Potts), Jerry Orbach (my favorite, Lumiere), David Ogden Steirs (Cogsworth/Narrator), and Paige O'Hara as Belle. Richard White portrays the selfish oaf, Gaston, and does a wonderful job.

The music is top notch. Composed by Alan Menken and given lyrics by Howard Ashman, the songs are some of the best and most memorable in Disney's catalogue. From "Be Our Guest" to "Gaston," they are all winners here.

The animation is classic and contemporary at the same time.

The DVD is nice. It comes complete with the original and special editions of the film and a plethora of wonderful documentaries on the making of the film, it's music, and many other things as well.

You would be wise to add this masterpiece to your collection. I highly recommend it.

beauty and the beast! the most touching romance of all the disney princess collection

this si without a doubt the most moving of all the disney princess movies I've seen. The ending of this movie had me in tears. When i first saw this movie i though the beast really had died and it was too late for him and then it turned out that belle's love for the beast brought him back to life and broke the evil spell that was cast on him by the enchantress. the ending couldn't have been more perfect. I'm so glad to own the dvd. The picure and sound quality is perfect. I now have the entire princess collection on dvd. Thanks amazon for carrying these out of print titles!
