Editorial Review: Product Description: Disney's Classic Amazon.com essential video: The film that officially signaled Disney's animation renaissance (following The Little Mermaid) and the only animated feature to receive a Best Picture Oscar nomination, Beauty and the Beast remains the yardstick by which all other animated films should be measured. It relates the story of Belle, a bookworm with a dotty inventor for a father; when he inadvertently offends the Beast (a prince whose heart is too hard to love anyone besides himself), Belle boldly takes her father's place, imprisoned in the Beast's gloomy mansion. Naturally, Belle teaches the Beast to love. What makes this such a dazzler, besides the amazingly accomplished animation and the winning coterie of supporting characters (the Beast's mansion is overrun by quipping, dancing household items) is the array of beautiful and hilarious songs by composer Alan Menken and the late, lamented lyricist Howard Ashman. (The title song won the 1991 Best Song Oscar, and Menken's score scored a trophy as well.) The downright funniest song is "Gaston," a lout's paean to himself (including the immortal line, "I use antlers in all of my de-co-ra-ting"). "Be Our Guest" is transformed into an inspired Busby Berkeley homage. Since Ashman's passing, animated musicals haven't quite reached the same exhilarating level of wit, sophistication, and pure joy. --David Kronke --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

![]() Rating: - Great Product and Fast DeliveryThis product Was well recieved in a timely fashion. It was in mint condition just as promised. Rating: - Best Disney Movie Ever!!!!Need I say more?! I mean, come on, people ACTUALLY rated this movie with ONE STAR?!?!?!?! Rating: - Solid, but still has some downsides. Belle is a beautiful young woman, living in a lively French Village. She's the outcast however, because unlike the other women in the town, she prefers to read novels then drool over the town's prized hunter Gaston. Her Father Maurice one day, sets off to take his invention; (A firewood chopper) to a State Fair. But things go wrong when he gets lost in the Woods, and a pack of Wolves hunt after him. Maurice ends up at a beautiful caslte, where servants welcome him in. These aren't ordinary servants ...

Did you see the monsters in Monsters Inc. singing? Nope. Finding Nemo? Nope. ENOUGH!!! Fine for kids, annoying for adults. A beautiful (no pun intended) movie ruined by constant songs. Buy it for the kids but be prepared to buy cotton for your ears. Rating: - Beauty and the BeastExcellent movie. One of the best Walt Disney Movies ever made. Very fast shipping and excellent quality. There was a little skipping, but nothing that can't be fixed. Browse for similar items by category:
