The story of a gentle-hearted beast in love with a simple and beautiful girl. She is drawn to the repellent but strangely fascinating Beast, who tests her fidelity by giving her a key, telling her that if she doesn't return it to him by a specific time, he will die of grief. She is unable to return the key on time, but it is revealed that the Beast is the genuinely handsome one. A simple tale of tragic love that turns into a surreal vision of death, desire, and beauty.

"This is a very lavish and grand production of the tale of Beauty and the Beast. The costumes are elaborate, the set designs are great for the time period, and the acting is grandiose and overdone. The plot plays out like an epic stage play with larger- than-life scores. Each of the performers seem to fit their roles well. French audio."

"Again with the first screen adaptations lol. This movie is highly revolutionary for early special effects and makeup. Also fun fact, the main antagonist of this film was created by the director and was actually the inspiration for Gaston in the Disney Beauty and the Beast adaptation "

"A little laughable with the beast (due to the suit and mannerisms). A little confusing at times (especially the ending). The insta-love is iffy. But an interesting watch nonetheless. "
