    Dali’s “wilderness” images, bold Freudian symbols, poetic surrealist fairy tales. When faced with the strongest desire and fear in the heart, the beast is so attractive, but the prince is superficial and stupid—that is, misfortune can turn any person into a beast, and good and evil have nothing to do with...

    Purely poetic dreamland, with praise and irony for the fairy tale world. Bell is beautiful, kind and cruel. She rejects everything and just wants to be a girl forever. To the beast covered with blood, she just said in disgust, go, wipe it clean. But she couldn't help peeking at the beast, attracted by its pain.

    I have always believed that the temperament of "Beauty and the Beast" is not in line with fairy tales. In fact, there are more realistic and dark elements in it, but J·Cocteau's version perfectly releases the original adult elements; the interweaving of light and shadow and various shooting techniques It conveys the gloomy loneliness of the castle and the beasts well, and the uninterrupted music also symbolizes the inner activities of the characters to a certain extent. An excellent feast for...

    ⒈At the beginning, there is a feeling that "Cinderella" has strayed into "Beauty and the Beast"; ⒉I thought it would be a black and white silent film, but it had an opera line soundtrack throughout (look at the character's mouth, the character should have been speaking It seems that the form of singing from beginning to end is earlier than "The Umbrella of Cherbourg" (it's just that this version of "Beauty and the Beast" failed to be recorded at the same time); ⒊ So the 2017 version of the...
