Ep. 24: Disney's Beauty and the Beast (2017), Part 2

Of Slippers and Spindles - Fairy Tale Retellings and Adaptations in Books, Film, and Theatre

"Now I know she'll never leave me, even as she runs away..."
We're back for Part 2! In the second helping of our conversation about Disney's Beauty and the Beast, we break down the 2017 live action reboot, the movie's presence in the theme parks, and our adaptation criteria. This time we talk about changes both big and small, character revisions, the yellow dress, the novelization, French characters who speak with British accents and apparently don't know French, object design, Gaston stomping cabbages, new curse specs, the mistakes made with the revision of Lefou, symbolic choreography, Evermore vs. If I Can't Love Her, the direct-to-video sequels, the time Drew saw three Belles in one theme park, plus find out which fairy tale we will be talking about in January!
