La Bella y la bestia

A wonderful movie. Master acting. A stunning storyline. Wonderful finale! An excellent version of the well-known classic for Beauty and the Beast.

Comparing to all other versions of this story, this is definitely the best: it's not solely fantastic costumes with beautiful casts but a deeper and more humane story. I'm honestly surprised by those who found Leon's behaviour offensive!; it is actually PLANNED to be offensive, his beastliness is more moral and not simply in his appearance. Alessandro Preziso (as Leon) acts wonderfully which made his character believable, the others are just acceptable. I agree that the character of the cousin is totally unnecessary plus the bad acting of that little girl, particularly when it is dubbed with really bad voices, not only for her, but for all the others; Alessandro has a wonderful voice and Bianca Suarez, too, however, the dubbed voices have damaged the English version noticeably. If you can see the Italian version with English subtitles, go for that.

Hollywood needs to leave the romantic movies to Italians. Beauty & The Beast is the modern approach to classic tale. In the modern approach Beast is a normal man, death of his wife, infidelity turned him into a beast. He has scars both physical and emotional scars. There's only one person who can turn beast into a normal man again and that's Bella. Bella's good heart & not only her physical beauty turned the beast into the happy man he was before. But Bella didn't only win the heart of the beast, she won the heart of a little girl Zazi, her father and the other villagers. As in every fairy tale, We have a lesson to learn from Beauty and the Beast, that's There's no Rose without Thorns. Love can conquer everything.

Alessandro Preziosi is brilliant actor, I loved him as a beast. Bella. The chemistry between Blanca Suarez & Alessandro Preziosi was steaming and realistic.

However I didn't like the voice actor the actor who voiced Prince Leon (Alessandro Preziosi) was Dermot Magennis, Alessandro Preziosi can speak English well. In Italian Version he dubbed himself, I've seen the trailers in Italian. Alessandro Preziosi is also a great singer. Some of Alessandro Preziosi's movies / dramas can be found on Youtube & Netflix.

I am giving 9 because of the dubbing voice over.

It's not for kids and it is different from Disney versions.

I have seen many version of this movie but non came even close to this...i watched it 3 times in 2 days...very well done im 100% recommending people to see it. ❤❤

First I want to say I loved this beautifully retold classic tale of Beauty and the Beast.I have probably watched all versions of this movie because it is by far one of my favorite stories ever! This movie blew me away! I wasn't expecting that. The beast was a normal man who had scars on his face. It wasn't made like a fantasy movie where a spell is cast on him. The beast bore real physical and emotional scars. And Bella the beauty is a very brave young woman, who despite the beast's cruelty falls in love. In this version the beast finds hope again. If you love Beauty and the Beast, please don't pass this one up. I actually liked it better than the newest Disney version. This film was actually made into a two part series.I agree with some other reviewers here the acting is fantastic. It brought tears to my eyes in a few scenes. I won't say when or where in the movie but it had it's tear jerking moments. Now this film is one of my favorites.
