Paper Abstract:
Analysis of the Disney animated film of the fairy tale. Additional features and characters added. Images of the film, especiallybeauty, and how they shape viewer response. Criticism of Disney's use of folk tales and history in a false way. Learning attitudes and behaviors from movies and the media. Depictions of gender.

Paper Introduction:
The Disney company's animated feature film Beauty and the Beast (1992) tells a well-known folk story in a fresh way, developing personalities for the characters that were not apparent in the fairy tale from which the story is taken. The film added other features and characters, including something feasible only in a fairy tale or an animated film, anthropomorphic furnishings that turn out to be enchanted servants left with their changed master. An animated film is built of abstract images, for no matter how much the artist may attempt to render reality, it is always only an image of reality and thus an abstraction. The abstract images of the animated film are developed so as to serve the needs of the story, to convey not only the details of the story as such but also the underlying meaning which constitutes plot.
