I can’t stress enough how fabulous the movie Beauty and the Beast is! I saw it live and in person out in Hollywood and if you are an avid reader, you know that I have been posting about the movie all week lol. I even got to interview the stars of the movie which blew me away because I didn’t think that was going to happen with these A-List celebrities. Emma Watson(Belle) and Dan Stevens(The Beast) took the time to share with us their favorite scenes, costumes and so much more. I learned a lot about how Disney put this iconic movie together, they left no stone unturned. If you are free this weekend, you should really take your family out to see it, it is well worth it. More info inside…
Five favorite things I loved about the movie:
The costumes for sure! They were very eye-catching to see on screen! The bold colors, intricate details and the way they moved, especially Belle’s gown in the waltz scene!
I loved the storyline on how you should respect others and be kind, great message for young people to know. Beauty is within.
The choreography is fantastic. To see all the dancers move was so fascinating to me.
My favorite character was “LeFou”, played by actor Josh Gad. He was hilarious to watch on camera and has such a great voice.
I love that you can take your whole family to see this movie.

The film stars: Emma Watson as Belle; Dan Stevens as the Beast; Luke Evans as Gaston, the handsome, but shallow villager who woos Belle; Oscar® winner Kevin Kline as Maurice, Belle’s eccentric, but lovable father; Josh Gad as Lefou, Gaston’s long-suffering aide-de-camp; Golden Globe® nominee Ewan McGregor as Lumiere, the candelabra; Oscar nominee Stanley Tucci as Maestro Cadenza, the harpsichord; Oscar nominee Ian McKellen as Cogsworth, the mantel clock; and two-time Academy Award® winner Emma Thompson as the teapot, Mrs. Potts.
Directed by Oscar® winner Bill Condon based on the 1991 animated film, “Beauty and the Beast” is produced by Mandeville Films’ David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman with eight-time Oscar-winning composer Alan Menken, who won two Academy Awards® (Best Original Score and Best Song) for the 1991 animated film, providing the score, which will include new recordings of the original songs written by Menken and Howard Ashman, as well as several new songs written by Menken and three-time Oscar winner Tim Rice. “Beauty and the Beast” will be released in U.S. theaters on March 17, 2017.
