Full lines: Once upon a time, in a faraway land, a young prince lived in a shining castle. Although he had everything his heart desired, the prince was spoiled, selfish, and unkind. But then, one winter's night, an old beggar woman came to the castle and offered him a single rose in return for shelter from the bitter cold. Repulsed by her haggard appearance, the prince sneered at the gift and turned the old woman away. But she warned him not to be deceived by appearances, for beauty is found within. And when he dismissed her again, the old woman's ugliness melted away to reveal a beautiful enchantress. The prince tried to apologize, but it was too late, for she had seen that there was no love in his heart. And as punishment, she transformed him into a hideous beast and placed a powerful spell on the castle and all who lived there. Ashamed of his monstrous form, the beast concealed himself inside his castle, with a magic mirror as his only window to the outside world. The rose she had offered was truly an enchanted rose, which would bloom until his 21st year. If he could learn to love another, and earn her love in return by the time the last petal fell, then the spell would be broken. If not, he would be doomed to remain a beast for all time. As the years passed, he fell into despair and lost all hope. For who could ever learn to love a beast?

Very beautiful.

The other one is bullshit compared to this amazing prologue. One of the best decisions of the movie was to make this opening scene

This was just so interesting

One of the best movie narration.

@gitanita, it looks like you tend to take jokes seriously.

@Deedragongirl

It seems you are very aware of everything I say. Honey, if something happens to you with me, you can talk to me privately without a problem my darling. It seems that you tend to criticize everything I do.

Kisses my honey

One of the most enchanting prologues ever.

The beginning is gorgeous.

That is a funny one
