It's so long!!! And so unclear where the extra time goes. Like, they add stuff but they also cut stuff as well. Feels like it should even out more than it does
Ugh YES. Why do they NEVER use the songs from the Broadway versions?! In addition to all the other things wrong with the live action Beauty and the Beast (and there were SO many), the fact that they wrote a new and inferior song rather than using the magnificent If I Can't Love Her has me shaking my head in disbelief to this day. This film is still on my list. I'll get to it at some point.
As usual a very thorough analysis
Thanks, Manish! Just call me Caroline "mixed review" Siede
I want to watch the movie but it's almost an hour longer than the original. Which is wild to me
