What happens
Beauty and the Beast (alternatively: Cannon Movie Tales: Beauty and the Beast) is a 1987 English-language Israeli musical film, part of the 1980s film series Cannon Movie Tales. It is a contemporary adaptation of the classic tale of Beauty and the Beast by Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont, borrowing elements from Villeneuve's version, such as the dream sequences. The film was shot entirely in Israel, and the taglines were: "The monster they feared was the prince she loved" and "The classic fairy tale about seeing with your heart". (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
