Beauty and the beast (Disney)

This animated “tale as old as time” follows the adventures of Belle, a bright young woman imprisoned in the castle of a mysterious beast. With the assistance of the castle’s enchanted staff, a tender romance develops between these two unlikely friends and Belle learns the most important lesson of all, that true beauty comes from within. Voices include Angela Lansbsury, Robby Benson and David Ogden Stiers. (Awards: Oscar winning music: Best Song and Best Score).
