The Highlands Community Bank Film Series Beauty and The Beast (G) Sun., Aug. 25 at 2pm In the John E. Hillert Auditorium at the Historic Masonic Theatre **All Films are Free** Beauty and the Beast is funny and lively and preposterous. The original animated version recalls the music, voices and whimsy that can only be found in the world of Disney. Beast is just fun! Unlike a lot of Disney princes of that time, he is super flawed. He’s a brat with anger issues who is stuck in the form of a wolf-buffalo man. What is not entertaining about all that? Gaston is one of Disney’s greatest villains since he thinks he’s the hero. He’s a classic misogynist who thinks monsters are just creatures rather than realizing real monsters are in the hearts of men like him. The Disney film has inspired many adaptations such as musicals, live-action remakes, video games, and even comic books. We are pleased to present this animated classic on our big screen. So…. BE OUR GUEST! (you knew it was coming). An arrogant young prince (Robby Benson) and his castle’s servants fall under the spell of a wicked enchantress, who turns him into the hideous Beast until he learns to love and be loved in return. The spirited, headstrong village girl Belle (Paige O’Hara) enters the Beast’s castle after he imprisons her father Maurice (Rex Everhart). With the help of his enchanted servants, including the matronly Mrs. Potts (Angela Lansbury), Belle begins to draw the cold-hearted Beast out of his isolation.
