Contrary to popular belief, there are no living objects in the castle, this was made popular by Disney's animated movie. The original tale (Or, at least, a version of it) only said that there were talking parrots and monkeys as servants.
The film title and part of the closing credits appear within a fairytale book.

Greetings again from the darkness. If you are looking for dancing tea cups or singing candelabras, you've come to the wrong movie. If you are looking for the Gothic approach to the dark psychological analysis of the original story … again, you've come to the wrong movie. Director Christophe Gans (Silent Hill, 2006) offers up a version that is neither animated Disney (1991) nor Jean Cocteau (1946), though his film does have a visual flair that will likely keep audiences (it's not for very young kids) engaged throughout. The familiar story was first written by Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villenueve in 1740, however, it's the revised version from Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont in 1756 that provides the fairy tale/fable that has been filmed so many times since. The story's genealogy based in France instills a bit more hope and responsibility in a project starring Vincent Cassel, Lea Seydoux and Andre Dussolier, and directed by the Frenchman Gans. Ms. Seydoux is an admirable Belle, and her grace and beauty make for quite the contrast to her needy and entitled sisters. Her time in the castle with the Beast is limited, and therein is the film's biggest weakness. We never really see the transformation of the Beast to a man who repents, turns over a new leaf, and is worthy of love … it all just kind of happens thanks to the beautiful dresses. Mr. Gans and Sandra Vo-Anh co-wrote the script, and this misstep deflates the core of the story. We are on our own to interpret the messages of class warfare, greed, and judging others by looks. The focus instead is on the visual presentation, which at times is spectacular. The set design and costumes are especially impressive and elaborate, and though the look of the Beast may not be precisely to your imagination, the film isn't shy about putting him front and center with the camera. Vincent Cassel's time as the Prince is pretty well done, and the CGI and explanation of the gold doe, nymph of the forest, magic healing water, pack of beagles and the curse are enough to move the story along … even if some details are lacking. A bedtime story being read to two young kids is the framing device and might explain why the fantasy world is emphasized over the dark psychological undertones (more prevalent in the Cocteau version). While some might view the ending as somewhat mawkish, it's really nice to see happily-ever-after is not twisted into some contemporary take on independence.

The 1700s introduced fairy tales to the world. Charles Perrault penned the most famous one, Cinderella, which has spurred countless adaptations. Influenced by Perrault, Gabriella- Suzanne Barbot de Villenueve wrote the original Beauty and the Beast in 1740. Her story has also produced adaptations, most famously Disney's story about Belle and the Beast.

The 1700s introduced fairy tales to the world. Charles Perrault penned the most famous one, Cinderella, which has spurred countless adaptations. Influenced by Perrault, Gabriella- Suzanne Barbot de Villenueve wrote the original Beauty and the Beast in 1740. Her story has also produced adaptations, most famously Disney's story about Belle and the Beast. Yet, Villenueve's tale little resembles the modern animated film, and is an interesting study in the origins of fairy tales. A well to do merchant is the father to six daughters and six sons. He is to embark on a journey and asks his children what gift they desire upon his return. Eleven voices clamor for jewelry or riches, but one, the youngest daughter named Beauty, asks for a rose. The merchant travels and then finds himself at a magnificent castle. A full spread of food has been set out for him and he rests there. On the verge of leaving for home, the merchant spots a rose in the garden, picks but one flower, and is detained by a hideous beast, who he fears will devour him on the spot. At this point, the crux of the story does resemble the modern Disney tale: the merchant is about to be made prisoner of the beast for life. He bargains and asks if a daughter can take his place. Beauty, who is to be the recipient of the gift, agrees to live in the castle. She arrives and is given a suite to live in full of jewels, gowns, and a magic mirror where she can see any room in the palace. This is where the two stories differ. There are no singing tea pots, candlesticks, or clocks. Rather, there are diverse monkeys and birds at Belle's disposal, as well as a nightly opera for her to enjoy. The Beast is charming in disposition from the outset, and it appears that he is out to woo Beauty, rather than the other way around, and he even offers her a giant library near the beginning of her stay in the castle. Beauty never doubts Beast's character, only his appearance. His transformation actually occurs at the midway point of the tale. The second half of the tale does not contain a splashy wedding full of ball gowns and fireworks. Rather, a fairy comes to the castle along with the Beast's mother and Beauty's biological father and explains the backstory to all parties involved. The story is full of fairies, curses, blessings, and other mythical creatures, that one would expect to find in a traditional fairy tale. I found this part of the story to be fascinating as growing up the only available story to me had been the Disneyfied version. Even though this original is not as full of glamor and show stopping songs, I found it to be a better overall story. My version of Beauty and the Beast is accompanied by stunning illustrations by Mina Lima. They add life to the tale as they show Beauty, the Beast, and the goings on in the castle. I admit that the Disney version of the tale is one of the Disney movies I actually allow my daughters to watch because the protagonist is a girl who loves to read and has to be worthy to break a curse and loves the Beast for his character rather than his appearance. The original tale does contain these elements minus the music and as a story is not as far fetched. I enjoyed reading the origin of this story, and rate the original Beauty and the Beast 3.75 stars.

Among most of the Disney stories, surprisingly, I liked Beauty and the Beast the most. I think this is among the very first of the enemies-to-lovers fantasies.

It never even occurred to me that Beauty and the Beast was an original story in of itself, despite the fact that only about 5% of anything Disney have made has been original and without basic inspiration, however tenuous that inspiration may be. The irony of this is not lost on anyone who has received a cease and desist letter from them whilst peddling their wares. But it seems I digress.

It never even occurred to me that Beauty and the Beast was an original story in of itself, despite the fact that only about 5% of anything Disney have made has been original and without basic inspiration, however tenuous that inspiration may be. The irony of this is not lost on anyone who has received a cease and desist letter from them whilst peddling their wares. But it seems I digress. I find myself a little torn in the rating of this book. The review will focus on the 1740 fairytale first and then move on to the physical edition, which I think requires it's own review for various reasons. First of all, the story. Having become disenchanted with Disney since their partnership with Pixar and the giant bug-eyes of their new characters (other reasons exist, but this one appears the most prevalent) I don't have any ties to their Beauty and the Beast as I never considered this a favourite in any case. However , I was, of course, entirely aware of their version and knew instantly how different this story was. I shall refrain from too many comparisons between Disney film and the original fairytale, but there is little similar except the finding of love between the title characters. I was enamoured from the beginning: I thought the storytelling was beautiful and the atmosphere evocative and I enjoyed following the adventure of the Good Man and his sons and daughters, including Beauty herself. By the end though, I was bored. It had become tedious and the storytelling was no longer good. Mid-way it became very repetitive as we followed Beauty around her new home and the recurrence of her dreams may have been a delight for her but for me they were abysmal repetitions of nonsense. I missed the splendour of the beginning and, though we had moments of strife, they were few and far between. And then we had a weird addendum at the end that stalled the whole thing as Fairies and Kings stood about telling long stories. Whilst I loved the beginning, the ending really spoilt it for me. I don't think an abridged version of this tale would be a bad thing, though I will always give the benefit of doubt to any translation, though I also didn't feel this was a particular French tale, either. The physical book itself I was extremely excited by. I care not that the illustrators had involvement with Harry Potter, but I own their other books and adore the covers and the elements inside. This one, however, was quite the disappointment. I'm marginally annoyed at how the interactive elements are made for right-handed people, but that's besides the point. They were fairly basic: lift a flap here, turn a wheel there. There was a book of Fairies that I thought would contain some wonderfully magical elements, but the inside was exactly the same as the cover. It was, in short, really rather pointless overall. Interactive Elements aside, the illustrations were lovely, despite the fact that the Beast is the Disney version (the book notes the Beast has scales, not fur) but again, I am probably being picky. The whole experience was rather disappointing and, though it began magical and rather enchanting, both the story and the illustrations became all a little too tedious by the end. I cannot even bring myself to add an extra star for the illustrations or beautiful binding as I don't feel my enjoyment was caused by such. What more can I say. It was so disappointing, but since I held no flame to this story my soul wasn't crushed. I actually still prefer this story to the Disney version, but maybe that's just my anti-big-company-bullying coming in to play. And how I hate those stupid big bug eyes.

This is such a tough rating for me. I want to give it five stars, but I want to give it two at the same time. A happy medium of 3.5 doesn't feel right though. I've always loved the Disney version of this fairy tale more than anything, and I loved this original version too. At the same time, I kind of hated it? No, that's too strong of an emotion.

This is such a tough rating for me. I want to give it five stars, but I want to give it two at the same time. A happy medium of 3.5 doesn't feel right though. I've always loved the Disney version of this fairy tale more than anything, and I loved this original version too. At the same time, I kind of hated it? No, that's too strong of an emotion. I was semi-bored through most of it. I love the story, but not the writing. However, it may have just been this translation, so I'm going to find another one and try it again. Better yet, when I brush up on my French enough to read a book, I'll read the original. Nothing is ever as good as a translation. At the same time, some of it was just so long-winded. The last 40 pages or so were history info-dump, "this is why the story happened". It could've been done in a much better way. Translations aside, if this book was written today, I would've ripped it apart. The phrase "for a woman" or "for her sex" popped up more than once, and again, if it was a modern book, game over. However, this was written in 1740. It was a different world, and I understand that. I'm reading through the lens of 2018, where that shit wouldn't fly. I imagine this was pretty progressive for its time though. I think, for nostalgia purposes, as well as how much I loved the story (and seeing where Disney changed things up), I'm going with 4.5. Maybe. This could change to a solid four or five. Maybe a three. Who knows? NOT ME.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Genre: Fantasy + Middle Grade + Classics I don’t need to provide any synopsis for this book because this is a story that all the adults and children are familiar with. I never read this classic before and all I knew about it was through what Disney has depicted on screen when they released their 1991 animation film. I still have not watched Disney’s live-action film starring Emma Thompson but plan to do so in a few days. The Beauty and the Beast as a story is different from Disney’s adaptation. In this book, the girl’s name is Beauty and she has siblings. The movie adaptation is just the first half of the book. The second half of the book is more about the backstory that involves the Prince’s past, his mother the queen, and his uncle the king. There is a big part of the story that talks about fairies and their intervention. In the second half, the reader will also know the truth about Beauty’s origin. This is a classic so it is expected for the writing to be a bit dense and at times too wordy. I feel this is totally normal for a fairytale book that was released in 1740 to have such a writing style. In my opinion, the second half could have been shorter a bit and I think the author has catered the story to accommodate the Queen’s absurd demands. I understand the time period in which the book was written and the obsession with the different classes in society. The author obviously wanted the story to be accepted by society because marriage outside your class must have been a big taboo back then. Unfortunately to accommodate such a thing means to sacrifice the believability part of the story. This will make me as a reader name the second part as “too convenient”. And here is where I prefer the Disney animation version more over the original story. This edition of the book that I own is such a bea
