I would choose Lily Collins for Belle. Looks exactly like her, great singer, great actress and looks also like Audrey Hepburn who was a big inspiration for Belles design
These are the actresses (in order) who have played Belle in different film adaptations of Beauty and the Beast.
I mean don’t get me wrong I love the fairytale and I am a sucker for the Disney adaptation, LOVE IT
but am I the only one that really dislikes that (at least apparently) so many „Beauty and the Beast“ retelling (talking about books) are just a copy of the Disney movie?
Especially aesthetically but also regarding story
And you look at the cover and immediately see a brunette woman in a golden/yellow dress and the Beast wearing a blue suit etc
I have recently acquired an actual production piece from the 1991 Disney adaptation.
Acquired from "Animation sensations: Georgetown Frame Shoppe". A really cool company, and I'd highly recommend them to anyone who wants to collect.
Looking into it, I assume this key frame was by Glen Keane, or Aaron Blaise. If anyone knows who drew this, please feel free to comment.
This is actually a gift for my father. (He doesn't have Reddit 🤫) Because, not only is it for his birthday, but for the memories we had with this film. We'd always watch it on dvd. It was our favourite film. I hope that it still is.
Thank you Georgetown Frame shoppe! And thank you dad, for all the memories.
Peace and love your friendly neighbour CoolerGlove 🙏
Belle is my favorite Disney princess and “The Beauty And The Beast” is my favorite Disney movie. Naturally I wanted a Belle necklace and this is it. I love it for its simplicity. Does anyone else wear Belle or “Beauty And The Beast” jewelry? I’d love to see it!
