Beauty And The Beast

Shilah — Sat, 13 Jun 2009 18:34:42 +0000

Beauty and the Beast is a traditional English fairy tale. The first published and widely supported version of the fairy tale was a rather meandering and ‘added to’ rendition by the popular author Madame Gabrielle Barbot de Villeneuve. The original tale was first published way back in 1740 as La jeune américaine, et les contes marins. The best-known written version of the fairy tale was an abridgement of the original work by M. Villeneuve, in 1756. This version was published by Madame Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont. The version was the published in the Magasin des enfants, ou dialogues entre une sage gouvernante et plusieurs de ses élèves; which was an English translation that appeared a year later.

The urban opening of the fairy tale is unusual and so is the chosen social class of the characters. They have been carefully chosen not to represent neither the royals nor peasants. Some adaptations do reflect the social changes that occurred at the time of the original version of the Beauty and the Beast. The story has been read over a passage of time in a number of diffferent ways and in different ways.

The Beauty and the Beast is at times interpreted as a young woman’s story, as she comes to terms with her blossoming youth and awareness of the effect her presence has on others. The content of the story Beauty and the Beast deals with the pure love for her father and how she finds sexuality bestial. This establishes her as a young maiden who believes that a man who feels sexual desire for her is not a beast. She represents the woman who is capable of regarding and relating to the the desire of sexual relationship as human and capable of achieving unconditional happiness.

Another interpretation of the story is that the Beast who is brutal in essence is changed on account of a woman’s love. The beast is then transformed into a handsome prince. At times, the tale has also been presented as a commentary on the very controversial arranged marriages. Especially, an arranged marriage to a much older man and thus the comparison that it could easily seem like marriage to a beast.

The Walt Disney version of the Sleeping Beauty was released in 1959. The Buena Vista Distribution was completed after nearly a decade of working on the animation for the film. Its background musical score and all the songs are adapted from the popular Tchaikovsky’s ballet.

The story line is that at the naming ceremony of a princess born to the royal couple after very many years, fairies, as godmothers were invited to belss the child. They blessed her with explicit beauty, unmatched wit and great musical talent. However, one of the wicked ones who felt slighted, placed the princess under an enchantment.

She announced that on becoming a young adult, the princess would prick her finger while working on a spindle and die. A good fairy came to the aid of the royal couple and although she was unable to undo the spell, she said that instead of dying, the princess would sleep for a very long time, a hundred years. She would be ultimately awakened by the kiss of royalty, that of a prince.

The film was the most expensive animated feature ever made. It is believed to have cost, in the making, in excess of $6 million. The voice of the Sleeping Beauty was given by Mary Costa, who did absolute justice to the job and is much loved even today. However, it grossed only half that amount on ticket sales and gained in popularity only in the mid sixties. The presentation had a unique style and authentic look. The beautiful story line and lively and at the same time soulful music made it one of the best loved Disney films ever.

The lyrics of the song are apt to the adaptation and go like this:
Yes, I made the choice
For papa, I will stay
But I don’t deserve to, to lose my freedom in this way
You monster!
If you think that what you’ve done is right, well then
You’re a fool!
Think again!
Is this home?
Is this where I should learn to be happy?
Never dreamed
That a home could be dark and cold
I was told
Ev’ry day in my childhood
Even when you grow old
Home should be where the heart is
Never where words so true!
My heart’s far, far away
Home is too
Is this home
Is this what I must learn to believe in
Try to find
Something good in this tragic place
Just in case
I should stay here forever
Held in this empty place
Oh, that won’t be easy
I know the reason why
My heart’s far, far away
Home’s alike
What I’d give to return
To the life that I knew lately
But I know now I can’t
All my problems going by
Is this home?
Am I here for a day or forever?
Shut away
From the world until who knows when
Oh, but then
As my life has been altered once
It can change again
Build higher walls around me
Change ev’ry lock and key
Nothing lasts, nothing holds
All of me
My heart’s far, far away
Home and free!

The Beauty and the Beast is also interpreted as a young woman’s story, as she comes to terms with her blossoming youth and awareness of the effect her presence has on others. The story deals with the pure love for her father and how she finds sexuality bestial.
