Beast flocked (Beauty And The Beast)

A beast more subtle than it looks

Beast is the hero of the film Beauty and the Beast adapted from one of the most popular Disney cartoons, itself freely adapted from the classic 18th century story. He is initially a young prince, arrogant and only concerned with appearances, who refuses hospitality to an old woman on a stormy night. But this one is in fact a witch and she casts a spell on him. She turns him into a beast and all the inhabitants of the castle into objects. The curse will only be lifted if he manages to make himself loved by a woman in this form. Years later, a man seeks refuge in the castle during a storm and the inhabitants welcome him, but the Beast is furious and takes him prisoner. His daughter, Belle, decides to go to the castle and offers to become a servant for life in exchange for her father’s freedom. But the Beast soon discovers that, like him, Belle is passionate about books and knowledge and a certain affection develops between them. The inhabitants of the castle then see the ultimate chance to break the spell.
