Intermission: In Defense of Damsels in Distress

 
Hello everyone!
 
Tonight's post is something a little bit different - and I REALLY hope you enjoy it. Because for the first time ever, we have a guest post.
 
That's right!
 
This past Thursday, I put up a review of The Shadow of Theron, written by Kathryn Troy, and she's very graciously agreed to write a short guest post for this little corner of the internet. We chose what we hope is going to be a great topic for discussion, so without further commentary from me, let's jump right in, shall we?
 
Take it away, Kathryn!

Talkie Tuesday: Beauty and the Beast

"Tale as old as time ..."


Hello everyone!

Finally, Tuesday arrived so that I can sit down and properly get this going. And can you notice that I've been excited for this blog post since the moment I sat down in cinema to watch the movie? 

If you haven't figured it out by now, this post will undoubtedly make it all clear to you.

Now.

Beauty and the Beast, the Disney cartoon version, that is (and never did I think I'd have to make sure people knew what I was talking about ...) is my all-time favourite Disney movie. That wasn't made spectacularly clear to me prior to seeing the live-action movie, however, which is a shame. I was unsure about which princess I preferred, what storyline was the most awesome, but then, last Friday, as the first orchestral notes started and all the hair on my arms stood up straight, I just knew.

Obviously, my parents were already well aware of that fact.

Duh, said my father, that was the first ever Disney cartoon we got you and you saw as a kid when you were four or five years old. That kind of thing sticks with you forever.

Parental wisdom ...

But, without further ado, my review of the live-action Beauty and the Beast!
