La Belle et la Bête (Beauty and the Beast)

Description

Cocteau (1889-1963) was a writer, poet, and painter with ties to the surrealists. The entrancingly beautiful visual poetry of this film (for example, candelabra made of human hands and NO singing teacups, thank you very much), dreamlike imagery and painterly compositions have rarely been duplicated since. Please see this movie uncut if you want to experience one of the finest fantasy films of all time! ... La Belle et la Bête Beauty and the Beast 1946 Cocteau romantic fantasy Josette Day ...
