I hope the beast is not a prince

When I was a child, I thought Belle's love for beasts was magical and incredible, just like the strange love in Liao Zhai Zhiyi, it was beyond the world. But the beast's love for Belle was ignored by me. In fact, it is normal for the beast to love Belle. Although it looks like a beast, the heart is still human, not to mention that Belle is still a big beauty. However, in the whole story, the most tangled and distressed one has always been the beast. Some people would say that he is self-inflicted, he is selfish and reckless, but is his character worse than Gaston? As Belle said, she thinks Gaston is the real beast, because he is not only reckless, but also hypocritical. Hypocrisy is a hundred times worse than recklessness.

Therefore, the prince becoming a beast actually contains some opportunities in it. Without this curse, how could he meet the love of this life? But at that time, he didn't know his end. He tore up his own portrait, broke the mirror into pieces, and lived in a dark castle unaccompanied for 10 years. He must be waiting for a girl to rescue him, but his hope of this is almost zero. Because he knew that no girl would love his terrible look. After Belle appeared, the real struggle began. If in the ten years before Belle appeared, he was evading his inferiority complex, then the time when his fate is about to change is to force him to go back to the light and face himself. Only when he accepts himself can he really impress Belle. heart of. So he changed his temper, became gentle and gentle, and even fed the birds for Belle’s happiness. The beast that looked fierce and terrifying suddenly became a shy and reserved gentleman. This contrast made me suddenly feel like a beast. Unprecedented goodwill.

Later, when there was one last step before the curse was lifted, the beast agreed to let Belle go home to take care of his father. Here, the purpose of the beast changed from being loved to loving, and would rather sacrifice himself to perfect the one he loved, but from here The rose has not stopped withering. It can be seen that Belle only changed her previous view of the beast but did not really fall in love with the beast, and she really fell in love with the beast when the beast was fighting with Gaston at the end. Therefore, the beast's love seems to be longer and deeper than Belle's.

But for a long time I have been uncomfortable that the beast finally turned into a prince. To be honest, I prefer him to look like a beast. If the beast has never been a prince, if he has always been a beast, I think this fairy tale will be more beautiful. This is my personal opinion.
