Sacrifice:
Belle starts off her adventure by sacrificing her freedom to save her father. It's second nature to her, which means that she already understands the nature of love. The Beast has to learn how to do the same thing—to let her go free even though he loves her and doesn't have to—before things can be made right. Sacrifice, in Beauty and the Beast, is a pure and clear expression of love: giving yourself for the sake of someone else. It's also the best way these two have to prove that they mean what they say…and maybe get rid of the pesky old curse in the bargain. Sacrifice is the essence of love in this story—the final gesture that someone else means more than yourself. Sacrifice is only one aspect of the concept of love and, while important, isn't the be-all and end-all.

Gratefulness:
Gratefulness is one of the most positive qualities a person could possess. The merchant finds a splendid castle where he gets a chance to rest and eat after a long journey and numerous misfortunes, what is more there is even a warm stable for his tired horse. When he wakes up, he finds a wonderful breakfast that he eats with a great appetite. Unfortunately, the man forgets that he is just a guest, so he takes a rose without even asking if he is allowed to do so. His initial gratefulness is quickly forgotten, his timidity turns into boldness.

Love:
Beauty and the beast has the right idea about love. Belle is beloved not because she's beautiful but because she's gentle and kind. The Beast is a little slower on the uptake, but he gets there, too, making sure he earns her affection by the time that last rose petal falls. Belle and the Beast follow the classic arc of hating each other so much, it must be love. But, seriously: try to stop the waterworks when Belle whispers those three little words over his dying body at the end.

Appearances:
Love is not about appearances in this movie. In fact, appearances can be very deceiving. That handsome hero type is actually a supreme jerk. The monster actually has a heart of gold. Even Belle, beautiful inside and out, is more than she appears. She's got a brain in her head and a love for books that send the rubes in her little town into a tizzy. You'll notice that the bad guys in this film, Gaston and his cronies in town, put a great deal of emphasis on appearances. Witness the Unfortunate Marriage Incident, or that odd bald woman trying on wigs in the first scene. Shallow people in this movie look only at what's showing. The wiser ones go deeper than that, looking for the soul despite the fact that it may be owned by a talking tea cup.

Community:
The funny thing about Beauty and the Beast: it doesn't have a lot of faith in community, at least the traditional kind. Disney movies have always tended to stress the value of community and the way tight-knit towns stood together against adversity. The town stands together here…against anyone who might be different or odd. The townspeople are shallow, pigheaded, and pretty darn judgmental, something that Gaston exploits to murderous effect in the finale. Contrast that with the castle, where everyone hangs together through thick and thin. Sure, getting turned into a living housewares-department item will do that to you, but even so, it's a pretty sharp contrast from the town where Belle lives. In some ways, the movie is about Belle finding her home. We're just glad she found one with the singing cutlery instead of those rubes fawning over Gaston's disturbingly large antler collection back at the inn.

Identity:
The last time you had an identity crisis, it was probably something along the lines of "I'm not as generous/good-looking/amusing/klutzy as I thought I was." In this film, it's more of an "I was a human being, but now it looks like I'm a lamp/teapot/cup/hideous beast" sort of thing. Identity is a lot more than personality; it's how we think about ourselves. There are some serious identity challenges in Beauty and the Beast, namely for all those castle residents who lost the most fundamental identity of all. The Beast's struggle to regain a human identity is what drives our plot. The message? We form our identity in relationships. It's our interaction with others that ultimately shows us who we really are.

Exile:
Exile, or being forced to leave your home, can be physical or emotional. The Beast lives completely apart from civilization: stuck in his castle and left to use his magic mirror to look in on the rest of the world. He's been separated from the rest of humanity by the enchantress and now, he isolates himself. Belle isn't all that different. She can move through the town, but she isn't really a part of it, and they let her know that she's not welcome. In a lot of ways, the story is about being exiled—set apart from the group either figuratively or otherwise—and having to find a new community to which you can belong.

- if set in court room could be 3 victims taking their stand against abuser resolve at the end can be the judge passing the verdict

- if set in therapy each victim can be discussing their own individual court cases and the verdicts at the end as a conclusion to throw the audience potentially one case could fall through

Changing Disney Songs Into DARK Minor Keys 🎃

Different personalities of each character to show there’s no link between who are or what you do . It’s the abusers fault not the victims

# data[].attributes.body
- Tale as old as time in a minor key as an underscore opening moment
- three girls same characters thought out the story is told through story telling not multi rolling apart from one person who will play the judge
- characters from the original plot mentioned with realistic names could be the victims families/ friends
- maybe not 100% set in a court room could be a therapy group for victims of kidnap

Beast Metaphor for Truama of kidnapping

# data[].attributes.body
We thought that using shows that include psychotic characters as a reference could help us understand Belles character more and help us understand her story and what made her become so obsessed with saving the beast and developing Stockholm Syndrome. Perhaps the relationship with her father wasn’t as perfect as it seems…

# data[].attributes.body
Similarly, Beetlejuice becomes obsessed with Lydia and he is narcissistic a bit like Gaston becomes obsessed with Belle

This BBC drama focuses on the story of 3 girls in a sex abuse case. We liked the Idea of following the story of 3 girls being the victim of the same kidnapper I thought this drama was good inspiration
