Beauty and the Beast
The upside to marrying a beast is you can forgo getting a family pet.
Mind you, the opposite species in this musical may not even make it that far.
When the mysterious owner of an abandoned castle imprisons her father (Kevin Kline) for theft, independent adolescent Belle (Emma Watson) embarks on a journey to take his place behind bars.
On arrival she discovers her father's captor is an anthropomorphic beast (Dan Stevens) that was cursed by a witch, along with his household items (Ian McKellen, Ewan McGregor, Stanley Tucci, Emma Thompson), which are now sentient.
Disney's semi-live-action adaptation of their own animated version of the French fairy tale, this shot-for-shot remake is a visual feast for the eyes and fun for all-ages - even if the beast does look off and Belle's suitors are too mature for her.
Unfortunately, the success of this fable could spark bestiality trends among young people.
