The new film is much longer. Count yourself in for 2 hours and 9 minutes of the new Beauty and the Beast. This makes it almost an hour longer than the original, which clocks in at 1 hour and 2. There are a lot of new songs. It might seem like sacrilege to some and pure progress to others, but the live- action Beauty and the Beast contains several new songs. Watch Lavender Online (2017).

Garderobe (Audra Mc. Donald) has an incredible solo right at the beginning of the movie, which we hear as we're introduced to the selfish, disdainful Prince. Céline Dion made waves when she announced she'd be singing an all- new, original song for the remake.

Called "How Does a Moment Last Forever," it comes in several times over the course of the film. Belle's father, Maurice (Kevin Kline), has a heartbreaking segment, which he performs while he's painstakingly working on a tiny diorama of his family. Belle then takes it up later in the film—and the Dion rendition plays as the credits roll."Days in the Sun," which composer Alan Menken has previously talked about, is sung by the staff as they go to sleep and remember their past, human lives—a tearjerker if ever there was one. And the pièce de résistance: the Beast's song, "Evermore," which the Beast sings after he lets Belle go free. Advertisement - Continue Reading Below.

It's live action, not animated. You already knew this, and it might seem like an obvious one, but it makes a difference in unexpected ways.

Of course, the new format means we get to see Emma Watson as Belle, and the Beast transform into a real human being played by Dan Stevens; a lot of the sets look different. But the live action changes the feel of other scenes, too—Gaston's hunt for the Beast feels much more dangerous and charged than it did in cartoon form, and the town scenes are absolutely buzzing thanks to all the bustling people.

In the original, the story about the curse laid on the Prince is illustrated in a series of stained- glass windows—then we see the Beast, already transformed into the creature Belle meets. But in the new version we meet the Prince preparing for a party in royal style: having his face made up, complete with beauty spot; clad in gorgeous, bejeweled finery; and lounging in a throne, looking on as beautiful women dance for him. One other surprising element of the Prince's past is that we learn his mother died when he was young. In a flashback, we also see the Prince as a boy standing at his ailing mother's bedside.

Sorry, but Belle doesn't read to any sheep in this version. It's disappointing, I know. Amazon. Advertisement - Continue Reading Below. Maurice is an artist, not an inventor.

In his animated incarnation, Belle's beloved father is a creative genius whose pride and glory is a wacky woodchopping machine. But this time around, he's an painter. His beautiful paintings—all of his late wife and his daughter—hang on the walls.

Yes, he fixes things, but it's clear he has the soul of an artist. So, when he leaves home at the beginning of the movie, instead of heading off to the fair to enter his outrageous wood- chopping contraption in a competition, Maurice embarks on his yearly trip to the market. Which actually makes a little bit less sense when he gets lost on the way, since he's presumably taken the correct route many times before. Bird On A Wire Online Putlocker. Gaston has more of a backstory, too. The Gaston we know and love is just a small- town bully who loves to hunt and think about wives.

In 2. 01. 7's Beauty and the Beast, he is a captain recently returned from a war, which feeds into his fixation on Belle—he's bored stiff and clearly needs something to do. Courtesy of Disney. Advertisement - Continue Reading Below.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha…not funny. Unsurprisingly, this scene didn't make it into the present- day version. Thank goodness. 9. There's a brand- new character.

Cadenza, played by Stanley Tucci, is a musician who was turned into a grand piano. Cadenza and Audra Mc. Donald's Garderobe are in love, which is absolutely perfect. The Prince's age doesn't get a mention. In 1. 99. 1's Beauty and the Beast, we learn that the enchantment has been laid on the Prince until his 2.

In the new version, we don't find out how old the Beast is. Dan Stevens, who plays him, is 3. The enchantress who puts a spell on the Beast is a much more significant character. In the middle of the Prince's sumptuous party, a bent woman wearing a cloak begs to be let in—offering a rose in return. We all know that the Prince laughingly rejects her, and that she reveals herself to be an enchantress who curses him and his staff for his cruelty. But in the live- action film, the enchantress has a much larger role, mysteriously appearing at key points throughout the film. We would love to see a movie just about her, to be honest.

Emma Watson has explained that the new Belle has more of a feminist slant, and that shows. The Belle we know always had her nose in a book, and Emma Watson's does too—but she's also got a few other tricks up her sleeve. For one thing, she's savvy enough to help her father with delicate technical work on machinery; for another, she's a resourceful lateral thinker who dreams up a new, more efficient way to do laundry—so she can spend the extra time teaching young girls to read, of course.
