Reviews of Beauty and the Beast 1991
-
One of Disney's best returned to the big screen, and it was lovely. The film is timeless. Still one of the greatest animated films of all time, and the 3D conversion was excellent

It really is a masterpiece.

Stunning film in every way, but there's a main reason I adore this film the way I do and his name is Howard Ashman, he was just a genius, he created along with Alan Menken one of the most beautiful amazing soundtracks ever, I mean just by listening to the prologue ( my favorite piece) you now its going to be epic and it is, then you just throw this characters and story to the mix and you have Disney at its best.

Although Beauty did lose is record-breaking Best Picture nomination to…

Disney's first animated feature to land a Best Picture nod is a sleek and graceful nod to Cocteau.

I ended up rewatching this tonight mostly because I needed to remind myself why I love it so much after watching a particularly painful touring production of the Broadway show. (Yes, I am predictable and nerdy.) And within roughly a minute, all those positive memories came rushing back to me. Howard Ashman's contribution to the film can't be overstated, but this time--what with Disney's recent layoffs--I found myself thrilled anew at the striking color and detail of the hand-drawn animation.…

I was feeling very ill this morning so I decided I needed a pick me up. Beauty and the Beast was one of the things I was allowed to watch as a child and I would watch it over and over and over again. I've seen it over 100 times for sure. I even found myself singing along. Yeah, I'm one of those people.
Gaston is such an ass. When I watched this with my dad when I was younger…
