Pretty Good
Lack of good storyline.
Great Film overall
Best movie of this year hands down!
I saw this when I was just out of high school, and fell madly in love with Mr. Scott, fell in love with his Beast, fell in love with this love story... I've been looking for it ever since. No one seems to know what happened to it...Scott's portrayal of the Beast is the truest to the fairytale's telling... He was able to absolutely capture the cruelty of the Beast, at the same time expressing his great love for Belle... I've been looking for this forever, and I've had friends involved in the film industry looking for it. All for naught, it seems...Please, please, please, is there any way Hallmark will re-release this for everyone that was touched by it?
The first comment made that many people would like to purchase this movie is very true. My mother-in-law has been looking to purchase this movie for quite some time now. I thought I may be able to purchase it on ebay or something but have yet to find the one she wants with George C. Scott. If it can be worked out for this to be purchased I would be on of the first to give it as a gift to my mother-in-law. She would love to see it in black and white but color I'm sure will not matter. I have not seen this movie so I am not going to rate it but I'm sure if she saw it and has been looking for a while for it, than it means something.
I saw this movie as a child and have always thought about how much I loved it!! It is a movie that everyone should see and I would love to have the opportunity to share it with my loved ones. George C. Scott did an amazing job in this role as the beast! I am really surprised that it hasn't been printed for sale before now. I also am shocked that it has never been on television since then. For a movie that was nominated for three Emmy awards, it is a real injustice that it hasn't been shared with more people and that all the comments that I have read, all reveal that it has been missed, remembered and thoroughly enjoyed. All of us and those younger should be able to share such an inspiring movie.
Ditto! How can we have vaults filled with clunkers and something with this power and grace remain unavailable?I saw this television presentation over a quarter of a century ago and for my money, it was one of the most lovely things television ever gave me. One thing about Scott; he seemed incapable of turning in a bad performance no matter how vicious or viscous the material. But whenthere was a marriage of man and material, like in Patton, or the Hospital, or even in (critics be damned) They Might be Giants, one was in for a rare treat. Now that this great actor has gone from us, can't we have his lovely work along with all those turkeys he graced?
