(1991) Beauty And The Beast.

ANIMATION FAMILY MUSICAL.

Something like the 8th or 10th version of the popular Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont fairy tale whose name seems to be uncredited on this version centering on an ugly beast voiced by Robby Benson romancing it up with Belle voiced by Paige O'Haraby. And of course because this is Disney they're supported by talking inanimate objects such as the tea pot which is the only thing that is memorable voiced by Angela Lansbury. The story had been re-written up to 10 different people.

I remembered liking the ending but in order to go through that ending I had to endure so much singing which at some tunes sometimes enhances the story but not throughout.

3 out of 4 stars.
