Disney's memorable 1991 animated musical take on the classic Gallic fable received a lush, popular, and equally enchanting live-action do-over, as fate brings the lovely and literate village lass Belle (Emma Watson) to a cursed castle whose lord has been doomed by his cruelty and arrogance to live out his days as the hideous Beast (Dan Stevens). Will he-and his coterie of houseservants transformed into housewares-be rescued by the curative power of love? Ewan McGregor, Ian McKellen, Emma Thompson. Kevin Kline, Luke Evans, Josh Gad also star. 120 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English. Two-disc set.
