Female lead casting failure

After watching the original animation and then watching the live-action version, I think the casting of the heroine was a bit of a failure. Indeed, Emma's appearance and her smart personality who loves to read match Belle's (some people say that this is a politically correct choice), but from the perspective of character, Emma is only strong, and she did not interpret Belle's innocent and gentle side. , lacks the aura and appeal of the animated Disney princesses (Amy Adams from Enchanted is very vivid).

Quote this short comment to express some of my thoughts

The original Belle is a gentle and stubborn princess, with a helpless feeling that no one in the village understands her, she is still curious and knowledgeable about things, while Emma is more like her own way, a pair of people who don't understand me I don't care attitude; her frequent wrinkling of forehead, face spread (smelly face) and eyes that don't make you feel warm and loving frequently make me play (this is a love movie about knowing each other? Twilight heroine).

When entering the library, the surprise expression and mood of the original Belle from the inside out can drive the audience very much (infectious, if it's too deep, check if your aunt laughed at that time), while Emma's cautious and overwhelmed expression It's more like seeing something scary and terrifying, especially the latter dialogue, coupled with her body language, instantly made me feel that she played Belle more like an old sister Beast hadn't seen for many years, rather than a current one. Ambiguous object, Beast's nonchalant answer and the subtle shaking of his head after turning around can explain what I'm saying.

I have to say that Emma's highlight in this play is that she looked back at Beast with tears when she was about to leave the castle to find her father, and after Beast turned back to a normal human, her smile became brighter, and her eyes finally got a little love. ,really!

Also, Emma is a bit hunched over in this movie, maybe it's the costume or the angle, sorry, I'm too picky.

PS: It is the first time to record such a serious evaluation of the Disney Princess series of movies. The language is not organized, and the writing is relatively simple. The above only evaluates the match between Emma's interpretation and Belle. In reality, Emma Watson is smart, independent, brave, and loves to read. I am still long. She is beautiful, and she is one of the normal feminists who has always insisted on speaking up for women in addition to being a scholar, RESPECT!

    The love story of Liu Yifei and the PG-class revenge corner of the United Kingdom is a super boring love story. The plot is protracted, only singing but not dancing, and the director's visual imagination is extremely poor, which is far behind the "Cinderella" of previous years.

    The big cousin last played less than 5 minutes...The blue bow made me wonder what to do

Beauty and the Beast quotes

  • [the Beast enters the dining room and sees a dinner plate on his side. He sits down and sees another plate set up across from him. He pushes away the plate in a fit of rage]

    Beast: [roars] *Lumiere*!

    [Lumière and Cogsworth get startled]

    Lumière: [turns to Cogsworth] Be calm. Let me do the talking.

    [the Beast bursts through the door]

    Beast: You're making her dinner?

    Lumière: We thought you might appreciate the company.

    Cogsworth: Master, I just want to assure you that I had no part of this hopeless plan. Preparing her dinner, designing a gown for her, giving her a suite in the East Wing...

    Beast: You gave her a bedroom?

    Cogsworth: No, no, no! *He* gave her the bedroom.

    Lumière: Well, this is true. But, if this girl is the one who can break the spell, then maybe you can start by using dinner to charm her.

    [turns to Cogsworth, bonks]

    Lumière: Good thinking, Cogsworth.

    Cogsworth: What?

    Beast: That's the most ridiculous idea I've ever heard. Charm the prisoner.

    Lumière: But you must try, master. With every passing day, we become less human.

    Beast: She's the *daughter* of a common thief. What kind of person do you think that makes her?

    Mrs. Potts: Now you can't judge people by who their father is, now can you?

    [the Beast sighs]

  • Clothilde: [sings] I need six eggs, that's too expensive!
