The Basis of all Beauty & the Beast Stories February 21, 2007
R. S. Davenport (San Diego)
This movie was produced before the Disney movie, and you can see where they got many of their ideas. This movie was produced before the TV show, and again you can see where they got their ideas.
It is a creative enchanted look at a fun fantasy! It is worth the money and the time you will spend watching it. And ... if you believe in romance, this is the movie for you! It made a great Valentine's present.

Come on! I can't believe that the Mr. below said that this is the basis for all the beauty and the beast features! You must see the Jean Cocteau's Beauty and the beast, wich is truly a great film, and the inspiring of all other good versions (Faery tale theatre of Shelley Duvall, with Klaus Kinsky as the beast, and Roger Vadim as director), and the crap versions (this one, disneys). This one is boring, low paced, and a bad copy. The only thing of this film is the beauty. But i prefer to see her in the movie with Michael Fox.
 Another classic brought to life by Cannon Movie Tales! June 17, 2008

A beautiful girl who devotes all her time to caring for her wealthy family is the only one not troubled when their fortune is lost. When her father picks a rose from the garden of a mysterious beast's castle while traveling home from an unsuccessful journey, she decides to take his place as the beast's captive. The beast provides for Beauty anything her heart desires, but he also asks her, every night at the dinner table, if she loves him and will be his wife.
Rebecca De Mornay stars as Beauty and John Savage as the beast in this wonderful film from the must-own Cannon Movie Tales series. If you love fairytales, this whole series of films is for you! These full-length, family features all have original songs and at least one recognizable star. The songs are often simple and forgettable, and the acting quality varies, but they are all highly entertaining nevertheless and made just right to be appreciated by all ages. I've never been smitten by Rebecca De Mornay, but I must say that in this early film of hers, she is rather breathtaking. John Savage is excellent as the beast, and the make-up effects, though a bit reminiscent of Teen Wolf at first, are rather good. These Cannon Movie Tales are not cheapy productions by any means. I own all that have been released so far, except for Rumpelstiltskin, which I have never seen in stores but is supposedly available here on Amazon. If you grew up watching these on the Disney Channel (back when it was the best channel on TV), you will definitely want these and will remember that there are two others that have not been released yet at all to DVD: Sleeping Beauty and The Frog Prince. Hey, MGM, what's the hold-up? Anyway, the others are: Puss in Boots (with Christopher Walken in a wonderful performance), Hansel and Gretel (one of the best ones), Snow White (also wonderful), Red Riding Hood (my personal favorite), and The Emperor's New Clothes (very funny). All are fullscreen, unfortunately, and each comes with its theatrical trailer. I also highly recommend the Disney animated features, especially "Beauty and the Beast"!

The male lead (John Savage) in the movie is LAME although good looking and a decent singer. The kiss at the end is so pathetic...I wonder where the director was when it was filmed. I do love the song "See with your heart" and have played the two parts where the song is sung over and over again just because it is a "feel good" song. Can't imagine how this film was cast with this male lead when there were so many other good actors available even back in the day. I share many of my DVDs with others but this is one I will not recommend nor share.
Review for Beauty and the Beast September 9, 2008
Alicia Hogg
Beauty and the Beast was an excellent movie. Beauty and the Beast is an excellent movie to show to kids because it has some really good lessons in it. Not only did the movie have the people talk about looking with their hearts and not their eyes, but also it had them show it throughout the movie.
