  1. Howl's Moving Castle (2004)
    "The film's themes of transformation and inner beauty parallel the classic fairy tale "Beauty and the Beast." Both stories explore characters who undergo physical and emotional changes, emphasizing the importance of looking beyond appearances." The Fairy Tales That Inspired Ghibli Films Aya Sato Tokyo Weekender
  2. Moonstruck (1987)
    "Jean Cocteau's adaptation of the classic fairy tale inspired the film's themes of transformation and the idea of love transcending physical appearances. Nicolas Cage modeled his performance on Jean Marais's portrayal of the Beast." Moonstruck (Norman Jewison, 1987) Make Mine Criterion!
