After viewed a clip of "Beauty and Beast" that I found on YouTune (this clip is a part of the Disney's version), I found some very significant differences between this version and Beaumont's version of "Beauty and the Beast". The biggest different thing in Disney's version compared to Beaumont's version is that, in Disney's version, Beast is not alone anymore, he living in castle with his servants, and beside himself, his servents were also transformed into the "monster-look" appearance; they were transformed to the candle, clock, and cloth-hanger. Also in Disney version, Beast acted so shy; he was not brave enough to dance with Beauty, and his servants had to encourage him to dance with her. Also in this film Beauty acted more actively than Beast; Beauty walked toward Beast and invite him to have a dance with her.In the film I also saw that, Beast's hand was shaking while he is eating with a spoon, and that gave us some clues about what is the original way that Beast is eating; he probaly not used to eat with silverwares, but rather to eat like the way that animals is eating- graping food with the hands. And Beast's eating-style helped to shape the story became more realistic and detail, and which were the elements that ignored in Beaumont's version.
Also in Disney's version, it added songs to the background of the play; it made the scence more "colorful", and the story became more lively.
