FINALLY watching my favorite Disney Movie (and probably favorite movie all around), Beauty and the Beast! Here are some random facts from IMdB:
- Chip originally had only one line, but the producers liked Bradley Pierce’s voice so much that extra dialogue and business was written and storyboarded for the character.
- The last phrase of Cogsworth’s line “Flowers, chocolates, promises you don’t intend to keep… ” was ad-libbed by David Ogden Stiers.
- Julie Andrews was considered for the role of Mrs. Potts.
- Songs take up twenty-five minutes of the film and only five minutes were without any musical score at all.
- The majority of the sculptures seen in the castle are different earlier versions of the Beast.
