Disney's newest adaptation of its 1991 animated film, Beauty and the Beast is a 'live action' film staring a few of Hollywood's most sought out actors to revive the childhood movie staple for a new generation. Those who have grown up with this tale will reminisce, having sung popular songs such as "Beauty and the Beast" and "Be Our Guest."
Belle, (Emma Watson) ventures to an enchanted castle where her father, Maurice is imprisoned by the "Beast" (Dan Stevens). She trades her freedom for his, but she becomes a companion to the household of echanted servants who, including the prince, have all been cast under a spell until the now hideous prince learns to love and be loved in return. A test of pride and prejudice. Gaston, the handesome villager trying to win Belle's heart, learns of Belle's seemingly horrifying predicament, and rallies the villagers to "kill the beast!"
