Beauty and the Beast
Contest Essay 11

Beauty and the Beast is the modern re-incarnation of the French fairy tale that told of Beauty being traded away or sold by her father and forced to marry the beast, an all too common fate for young women. The new tale gets its charm from the modern Beauty, who is educated, wealthy, independent, and powerful. She chooses to love the Beast. This version also has no transformation at the end. She loves him exactly the way he is. But what I find most charming about this fairy tale is its setting - underneath one of the greatest urban centers of the world a very long way from the old French countryside.
