@ThePayola123 yes I like both of them and only the two and no others

[ThePayola123]

I hope everyone here has watched the 1946 version by Jean Cocteau before seeing this one. It's good to have a point of comparison.

@MsWildFlower51 more acurate would be Maiden and monster but subs are bad

[ThulePrincess88]

the artwork in the beginning was , I believe, created by philosopher T.A.Nasreth
