Bela

I've read this script dozens of times, been to all the filming locations in Iceland, met the director, cinematographer, editor, producer, and composer, and each time I've watched Belle in theaters and at home I've noticed something new and found myself falling in love with the story or the characters or the music or Iceland a little bit more. "Jeez," you might say, "does this guy just love the movie, or is he somewhere on the spectrum? Or was he maybe the Assistant Director?" And if I was in front of you when you asked those three questions, I would give an emphatic, "Yup" to each.

More seriously, I've never felt I fully believed Belle in any adaptation of the fairytale until this one. So thanks, Max and all for helping me finally get it.
