Cocteau adapted the ending. In the original
book, the name of the beauty is "beauty", belly is a beauty. She has two beautiful sisters, several brothers, and a father who loves her. The elder sisters are very proud and jealous of the little sister. She is so beautiful, gentle and kind, and everyone loves her. When someone begged her, she always thanked the other person very much and replied apologetically that she was still young and hoped to spend more time with her father. The two sisters would directly refuse it with an arrogant tone. So when the family is down, everyone sincerely sympathizes with the beauty, but no one comforts the sister. The beauty learns to do rough work and takes care of all the work at home. The sisters contemptuously think that beautiful women were born to do this kind of inferior work, and the sisters are so noble, how can they make the ashes and pots and bowls rough their hands?
The last of the two sisters was married to a gifted man, and the other to an elegant gentleman. But talented people only love to debate and irritate others, especially their own wives, with all kinds of beautiful words. But the gentleman only loves himself, dresses in the mirror every day, and never takes care of his wife's feelings. Their marriage was unfortunate, they lived in pain and resentment, and they were entangled in their hearts every day. No one sympathizes with them. Who made them so proud before they got married? When the little sister left home and went to die alone in the forest, the two sisters really couldn't grieve. They reluctantly shed a few tears, wishing to see the beauty in trouble.
But the beast is very good to the beauty, he arranged a beautiful room for her and never disturbed her easily.
Every night at nine o'clock, the beast would always come to the beauty to talk to her, and they talked a lot. What the Beast said was his own feelings, and none of them resembled the "thoughts" that people said, but he was sincere and full of content. Beauty gradually fell in love with the kind beast, they talked more and more, and even in the evening, she secretly looked forward to coming at nine o'clock, and the beast could talk to her.
Before the Beast left, he always asked: "Are you willing to be my wife?" Beauty was so embarrassed that she didn't know how to answer. She knew that the beast was kind and liked him, but he was too ugly and terrifying, and she couldn't force her to agree, so she plucked up the courage and said, "No." When she answered for the first time, she was trembling and scared secretly. The beast got angry and ate her, but the beast sighed and left. They talk a lot every day, and sometimes the beauty thinks he won't ask again this time, but he will ask the same questions. One day, Belle said to Beast: "You are really good to me, I like you very much, but I really can't be your wife, we can be good friends." Beast is very sad, he asked Belle what else wish. Beauty said she wanted to go home, so the Beast told her to go home, saying that she must come back within a week, otherwise he would die.
So the beauty returned to her deeply nostalgic home. I saw my sister and my father who was thinking about it. At the same time, a box full of clothes appeared in the house, all exquisite and beautiful, sent by the beast to wear the beauty. When the elder sister saw the little sister who came back from the beast, she was alive and well, and she became more and more popular. Someone really loved her, and her heart could hardly stand it anymore. The younger sister wore the dazzling gems given by the beast, and she wore an unimaginably beautiful skirt. She was even more beautiful than before. The two older sisters were crazy with jealousy. So they wiped their tears and cried and begged their sister to stay a few more days, trying to hold her back, delaying her time to see the beast, and wanting to anger the beast.
The Beast waited and waited, and couldn't wait for the beauty to come back, he fell on the grass by the stream, planning to starve himself to death. The beauty returned a week late, and finally couldn't stand the condemnation of her conscience. She put the ring on the table and returned to the beast. But the Beast was not in the room. She rushed out to look for it, for fear that the Beast would die. She had never thought that she was so afraid of losing him. She ran to the grass and saw the dying beast. Only then did she know that she had fallen in love with him and could only marry him. So-a miracle happened, the beast disappeared, and in front of her was a handsome prince. The beauty was so surprised, she didn't know what was going on. The prince said that he could not show off his talents. Only if he did not know that he was a prince or that he was talented, someone who was willing to marry him just because of his kindness and politeness could the curse on him be removed. .
The beauty and the prince held a grand wedding and became the queen of his country. The two sisters, who were turned into stone sculptures by fairies, were placed on both sides of the palace. The fairies said that until they changed their jealousy and arrogance, they could not restore their human form. But the fairy said, this is a very difficult thing for women.
The love of virtue trumps talent, money, and fame. That's why beautiful women get true love. This is what the story is about to tell the girls. The original works are very exciting, and most of them are abridged or rewritten on the Internet.
Fairy tales (except "Andersen's Fairy Tales") and religious stories (Buddhism and Christianity) look better at the original works, such as "One Thousand and One Nights" and the Buddhist "Shen Yu Jing", which are both stories written for adults, depicting good and evil It is beyond human imagination and may not be suitable for children, but it is full of wisdom and overall love.
