Beauty and the Beast was my most favorite tale since childhood, I've always loved watching but only recently I started learning more about its origina and meaning, there's a lot of leasons learned through it not only the looks, money and wealth do not mater only whats inside and personality.
But if you think of it there's a lot more behind you can get from, for example sometimes the little things are enough to bring joy not the number or materalistic value. Bella thought a rose which can be just taken from any bush is enough to make her happy, she did not request for dresses, jewelry or anything expensive. The beast who had his castle and items thought the only beauty left for him and the thing to care for is roses.
as well as another thing, Beauty was willing to do anything to save her family the guilt inside her made her willing to do anything.
There's really a lot behind this tale and on other versions and visions
