I like the Beast in the orignal story, he's kind and miled manner. Other than just being an abusive prick in the Disneyfied version. The story's message is learning to accept one's personilty than judging appearances. Not just some woman's fantasy of taming the beast
Frank S He *almost* killed Gaston, but spared him at the last minute. Naturally, Gaston rewarded his kindness in typical fashion; in other words, no good deed goes unpunished. ((sigh)) Oh, well...
Giselle Ramos Disney:that hot girl is gypsy daughter and survive to the end along with humpback dude Original:not black and french protitute daughter and get hang and humpback dude kill that bishop and strave to dead on her corpse DONE!
Thank you for this! I just watched it with my 15 year old daughter (who is named Belle!). The original version is just as beautiful as the remade one, but we understand why they made the changes they did.
Though the part about Gaston and the Enchanted objects were actually inspired by the John Cocteau version in the 1940s, which other than the fairytale, this film was the other inspiration to the Disney film. Interestingly originally Beauty and the Beast was supposed to be more closer to the fairytale when they did a story-reel when George Purdum was originally director.
Belle was originally going to have sisters in the movie, but they were ultimately cut from the film by Linda Woolverton, because she felt that they wouldn't be confused with Anastasia and Drizella from Cinderella.
Well I like both versions I felt sad about Lumiere , Cogsworth and others weren't exist in real story ; - ; These versions has happy ending at least Beauty and the Beast is one of my fav princess movie of all time FOREVER!! whatever what Nice video man!
Beauty & the Beast is one of my favorite Disney movies as well, and I am so glad that the live action preserved the story of the animated movie. I suspect that the original fairytale was based on the myth of Eros and Psyche. Psyche's beauty arose the jealousy of the goddess, Aphrodite who sent her son, Eros to make her fall in love with the homeliest looking man he could find. However, he fell in love with her. Eros was called the beast neither the gods nor men could resist.
Actually, the fairytale is based on the real marriage of Petrus Gonzalvus and his wife Catherine Raffelin. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5419OdCWiH4.html
I guess I heard when I was a kid, partially this original version before, that she has sisters...I forgot it somehow as I grew up. Though it's fun to see the enchanting characters / talking object, I like the concept and values of original story.
WOAH, TAKE THAT MOMENT WHEN BEAUTY'S FATHER IS LEAVING AND ASKING HIS DAUGHTERS GIFTS... In the live action, (yes, the new movie) before Maurice leaves, he asks Belle what will he bring home. *SHE ASKS FOR A ROSE*. But a WHITE rose so.... close enough? Belle said he always brings her a rose every year. So, as promise, Maurice will give Belle a white rose when he comes back home. At the Beast's castle, he dosen't know who is the owner and since it was winter *IN JUNE* he felt chilly. So inside he saw some food that he thought it was his because for the damn hospitality, and obviously, since there were magical talking houseware there, Chip moves and.... *OBVIOUSLY SCARES HIM AND RUNS AWAY THE CASTLE DUHHHHH* He almost forgot but luckily not, Belle's requested rose. So he saw some roses (white) and he picked *JUST ONE* and just about to go away the castle until the Beast shows up and *THROWS MAURICE INTO THE DUNGEON AND BELLE TRIED TO RESCUE HIM AND BLA BLA BLA* (so clearly the similarity there.... is just..... I can't mostly explain you can see it)
I really enjoy both Disney's and the original version of the story. I like how in the original story Beast made his feelings known and although Beauty thought him to be kind and gentle, she just couldn't get past his appearance. I think it makes the moment when she realizes she loves him even more special. However, the originality of the characters in the Disney version makes the story even more fun and special as well. Both are awesome in their own ways!
Every non-Disney version I have read of this fairy tale, Belle was basically forced to stay at the castle or else either her father or herself would be slain. Every video I have seen supposedly covering the origins of this fairytale has avoided mentioning this at all and how this colors the relationship that develops between the Beast and Belle over time being akin to stockholme syndrome with Beast trying to buy Belle's affection and love with wonderful gifts.
I know, I read through the tale myself again before and when I read that the Beast will kill Beauty's family if she doesn't stay at his castle. The book established that he was kind and mild-mannered and yet he went off telling that he'll do that? That's a wrong turn coming out of him. 😬😬😬😬😬
I remember seeing a cartoon version of the Beauty & the beast back in the 90s. Too bad they did not add it to the real life version played by Emma Wonson
there is a cartoon movie just like the original story. when you were telling the story I could picture the cartoon and is was like hey I know this story, but the only thing different in that movie is the sisters don't get turned to stone.
If you like the original story...the film La Belle et la Bête by director Jean Cocteau is fairly close to the original story of Beauty and the Beast. And Disney based their movie on it. It's beautiful and better than the Disney version in my opinion.
You should do Pocahontas. (Spoiler) in the movie she falls in love with John Smith than in Pocahontas 2 they "kill off" John smith to make it historically correct and she falls in love with John Ralf. The real Pocahontas married John Ralf
The original is not a bad storyline except... thers no explanation as to why ther is a beast in the first place like why prince Adam was turned into a beast hehe
Well, in this version, there isn't. But in the very origanal version (since the version he talked about was basically an abridged version of the origanal), the Beast's mother was a fairy warrior queen, who went off to defend her kingdom. She left him with an ancient fairy nanny while she was gone. As the Beast grew up, the nanny found him rather hot, proposing to the teenaged prince. Obviously turned off by someone who he saw as a grandmother having the hots for him, he refused the offer. Angered by this, she transformed him into a beast as punishment for turning her down. So yeah, he was turned into a beast because an old woman wanted fuck him. 🤢
You probably already know this but "Belle" means "Beauty" in French. Hence the name and they always call her Beauty in the story because the youngest daughter is called "Beauty" so her name was probably Belle too.
The orignal story of Beauty and the Beast had way much better moral, that it's not what's on the outside but the inside, not about a woman's fantasy about changeing you're man's personality.
Will Lyon Belle didn't change the Beast. Belle brought out the side of him that no one else saw. No one else saw it for so long because he let himself become like his father. Belle brought out the best in him, made him feel like a human again, not a cursed spoiled brat who followed his father's footsteps. She did not change him. She brought him back. Gave him a life worth living. Gave him hope and love. She saw what others did not. She saw Adam. Not a beast.
Oh dang this is the abridged version this is not the complete full story the unabridged version is way more complicated and weirder but in a good way in the original villeneuve's version "The Beast, a prince, lost his father at a young age. His mother had to wage war to defend his kingdom, and left him in the care of a rather evil fairy. This fairy attempted to seduce him as the prince became an adult. When he refused, she transformed him into the beast until someone would agree to marry him without knowing his past or that he was intelligent. In a neighboring kingdom, Beauty is the daughter of a king and a different fairy. Beauty's mother broke the laws of fairy society by falling in love with a human, so she was sentenced remain in the fairy land and Beauty was sentenced to marry a hideous beast when she grew up. After Beauty's mother disappeared from earth, the evil fairy unsuccessfully attempted to take Beauty's life and marry her father. Beauty's aunt, another good fairy, intervened and changed Beauty's place with the dead daughter of a merchant for Beauty's protection, then placed the Beast in a magically hidden castle until Beauty grew up."
Well, possibly, but more likely not. From Wikipedia: "The story of Hua Mulan is treated more as a legend than a historical person." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hua_Mulan
I loved's andrzej sapkowski take on what I believe to be a version of this story. Basically some rich kid got involved with with bad people and eventually ended up being cursed by some sorceress, turning him into a tusked bear monster. He still kept his humanity however, and through strange circumstances(I think that he saved a merchant or somethin'), he ended up being a guardian for unwedded virgins in a magical house and a vampire girlfriend. It's pretty complicated, just read "the last wish"
If you're curious there is russian version of this story called "The Scarlet Flower" (Аленький цветочек) by Aksakov. *one of my favorite books in childhood
Marni Stone I can tell you now the book is much sader then the movie I prefer movie over the book movie so underappreciated it goes right up there The Lion King Beauty and the Beast
Sibling rivalery is quiet commmon in these stories, the older siblings are envious of the hero or heroine's good fortune and fail to attempt to performe several tasks because of their selfishness and idleness, and of cource suffer horrible fates. I felt kinda of sad how Belle or Beauty's Sisters were left out in the Disney movie.
Doesn't it take about a month to starve to death? (Granted, the beast wasn't, obviously, human, but the concept is the same). He may have given her a week to come back so he wouldn't die, but he should have been able to survive for a lot longer than ten days with no food (as cruel as the idea may be).
i remember reading the original when i was little, and i absolutely loved it; it didn't really seem very sad or dark though, too bad i don't really know what happened to the story book... i never even saw the movie before reading the book
Even Disney's version of Sleeping Beauty both of the original stories she becomes pregnant and gives birth after being raped and also she becomes married in the other version she is a sex slave. The Disney Version of Beauty and the Beast and Sleeping Beauty is very great and wonderful.
@Will Lyon Frozen is basically a completely different story that's merely inspired by the Snow Queen. So I don't think there's even a point to compare them.
