La Belle et La Bête (1946)

I watched La Belle et La Bête (1946) with the family last night. The French title translates to Beauty and the Beast. It was my second time watching the film, and it was more enjoyable this time around. I did have to read the subtitles for children, who ended up being intrigued with the movie after an initial protest. Reading the subtitles was fun, but of course, my voice acting was nothing compared to the actual acting.

The film is considered the best French film of all time, and honestly, I think it is one of my personal favorites, as well. The cinematography is beautiful. Or dare I say gorgeous? It’s thoughtful and deep and haunting. It’s whimsical and childlike and imaginative. And, as already stated, the acting is phenomenal.

If you haven’t already seen it, you should give it a g, or if you have seen it, have another go at it!

“He was. A great man, but maddening. Most great men are. The way he went through tobacco and pens. . . and dear me, the water bill for all those hot baths when he was working through some problems!”

What is your Roman Empire..?

I like pondering on what life would be like as a nun.

Disclaimer

I decided if I outlive my husband and have no unfinished business in the world, I’ll become a nun, just to kick it old school with the Byzantine Emp—I mean, Roman Empire. Also, the last time I stayed at a monastery, I bawled my eyes out when I had to go home because the work was so beautiful.

@Raptra, I think socks are a fun surprise gift. I bought my bestie a 12 Days of Valentine’s Marvel Sock Pack one year, for instance. Total win.
