Todays movie is: La Belle et la Bête (1946) ( movie w/ English subtitles)
Quick synopsis (pulled from IMDB):
A beautiful young woman takes her father's place as the prisoner of a mysterious beast, who wishes to marry her.
This is my favorite version of Beauty and the Beast; even inspired Disney in their animated version!
It’s in French (as it should be 🤭) and it’s so beautiful. I watch it like every other month; it’s ethereal and Josette Day is such a beautiful Belle. 😌 It’s more like the fairy tale with the mean sisters and her being forced to act as a servant for the family.
Highly, highly recommend; it’s available on streaming services and is free on YouTube with English subtitles!! 💜

If any other English-speakers want to watch Three Wishes For Cinderella (1973) this is the version I watched. The quality is good, you just have to manually enable the captions on YouTube. And you can catch my fairy tale freakout here.

Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio is definitely better than the other Pinocchio that came out this year. Not only is the stop-motion animation beautiful, it is a more original take on the familiar fairy tale, completely with a grimly bittersweet ending that del Toro’s work is known for.
My one complaint is while the running gag of Sebastian the Cricket never being able to finish a song is funny at first, I want to hear Ewan McGregor sing, dammit!
