The French version of “Beauty and the Beast” is my favorite version. Its beautiful interludes, such as paintings, and romantic and mysterious plots, make me immersed in it and do not want to wake up. So, I watched it three times, including the clip of Bailey and the Prince more than ten times.Why I have seen it so many times is mainly because I want to know the psychological process of Bei Li. How did she fall in love with the prince with the face of a wild animal.
Throughout the film, there are only six dialogue scenes between Bei Lei and the prince. Every time, Bei Li’s heart was up and down.
For the first time, when she saw the face of the prince’s wild animal, she was frightened and took up the bayonet and stabbed the prince! She was scared. This was the first time she left her family and faced a wild animal alone.
That night, Bei Meng dreamed of the love of a prince and princess. All the places in the dream were the castle where she was at present. She wondered why she had such a strange dream.
The next day, under the guidance of a deer in a dream, she came to the rose bush and saw a princess stabbed by a golden sword. Her appearance was exactly the same as that in her dream. Suddenly, she understood that in front of many people, a princess had died in this castle, and it was her dream that troubled Bei. This is the line in the play, but there are more lines hidden in the play – where is the prince? Who is the beast in prince’s clothes? Did the wild kill the prince and princess and take away the castle?
In the evening, she met the beast. This is the second meeting.
Bei asked whose castle this was.
The prince replied, mine.
Bei Lei doesn’t believe it, she said. It sounds like you are like everyone else. The other people here are those who are arbitrarily deprived in pursuit of money. Bel thought that it was the beast that killed the prince and princess, and then took the castle and all the treasures in it as his own. She hates wild animals!
And the wild animals hate the disgusted eyes of Bei Lei even more. The wild animal was angry and shouted at Bei: “Don’t look at me, I know I’m a wild animal!” In fact, he didn’t roar at Bei, but at himself. He hated his appearance, and his heart was filled with desolation and despair. She was his only hope, and she was so prejudiced!
In the evening, Bei Mei dreamed of the princess and prince again. In the dream, the princess and the prince are dancing with a light and beautiful dance step. The last scene in the dream is that the princess who danced with the prince turned into a shell. Then, at dawn, Bei woke up.
In fact, this scene suggests that she is in love with the prince in her dream.
On the third day, when he continued to explore the castle, he found a pavilion, and then he slowly walked up the stairs to the pavilion… Then, the camera immediately turned to the picture of two people having dinner at night.
The film bought the foreshadow and hid a lot of content – what did Bei Lei see in the attic?
In fact, the film tells us in the plot behind it – a painting, a painting of a princess and a prince, and an obviously occupied room. This castle has no other people except wild animals and shellfish. Who will live here? Is that wild animal? If it was a wild animal, why would there be a painting of a princess and prince in his room? What is the relationship between prince and beast?
With doubts, Bei put forward a request to go back to see his family for a few hours by dancing with the wild animals.
Why did Bei Li ask to dance with the beasts instead of other requests? Because of the dream last night. Bei was puzzled. Is the prince in the dream the beast in front of him? She wanted to confirm the relationship between the beast in front of her and the prince in her dream through dancing. The real beast should not be able to dance, but the beast in front of him can. If you know, he will.
The music rose slowly and the two began to dance. Bei Lei has been staring at the beast. She wants to see through him, see through him!
Suddenly, Bei Bei seemed to return to his dream of dancing with the prince last night. As the dance continued, Beier closed his eyes and leaned his head on the beast’s chest. She really hopes that the prince is in front of her.
Will you fall in love with me? The beast asked softly.
I woke up like a dream! He pushed the beast away and asked to go home for a few hours. “You should keep your promise.”
The beast refused. He knew that if Bei went back, he would not come back again. He really doesn’t want to lose Bei. After waiting for several centuries, we finally ushered in a glimmer of hope. Is that how to let go?
Bei was angry and thought that the wild animal did not understand the human relationship at all. “Although you wear the prince’s coat, you still can’t change the nature of your beast.”
This sentence is too hurtful. The wild animal covered its face, didn’t want to look at the shellfish’s eyes, was extremely angry and left angrily. The wild animal is running away. He can’t change his view of himself.
The wild boar who came out to search for food in the middle of the night died in the hands of extremely angry wild animals. The beast carried the dead pig to the attic where he lived, while Bei Lei stayed in the dark for a long time. Bela, hiding in the dark, quietly followed the wild animals to the attic. Although in extreme panic, we have to go up and have a look. Only in this way can we know the answer – is the beast a prince?
Bei Bei climbed up to the top of the attic and saw the wild animal throw the dead pig in front of the painting, struggling to bite. Be sure, the beast is the prince! That oil painting is proof. Only the prince who has really loved the princess will put the oil painting in front of him, and will never leave him day and night.
However, the prince in front of him was like a wild animal, biting and eating raw!
Bei was frightened. She couldn’t think whether the prince became a wild animal or whether the wild animal became a prince.
Is this the answer I have been looking for? The prince has turned into a wild animal, a wild animal, no, no – I can’t accept this answer. She wants to leave here, whether it’s a beast or a prince. She wants to leave here immediately, the farther the better.
In panic, Bei ran all the way out of the castle, through the jungle, and ran on an ice lake.
At this time, the wild animal came after him in a white fluffy cloak, like the wind. For the purpose of protecting shellfish, the wild animal can’t let shellfish stay outside the castle alone. More importantly, he doesn’t want to lose shellfish.
The wild animal pounced on Bei and pressed him.
“You see me as I am. I am a wild animal. Say you hate me again, say again!” The wild animal squeezed this sentence out of its mouth with extreme restraint, and then lowered its head slowly. He is going to kiss Bei, just at this time.
At this moment, Bei was completely conquered. She saw a man who was extremely restrained and angry – a crazy and repressed love, threatening but gently put it down.
Slowly, Bei fell in love with her eyes and waited for the prince’s kiss.
