"Every Shot is a Painting...the lights and all!"

The title of this post is a direct quote from an online Phantom of the Opera phan/friend of mine, Melly.  She is from France and wrote this quote on my Facebook after I had posted I had watched the 1946 Beauty and the Beast.  She is right.  It's a perfect way to describe this film.  Some of the photos I have seen online are not all publicity stills- some are actual stills from various scenes.  They are clear, well lit, and superbly done.  It never ceases to amaze me how one perfect photo with not even a fancy background or backdrop, can be beautiful.

The gorgeous and graceful Josette Day~


Just thought this was a cool picture of the Beast becoming...well...the beast!








 Yes, the photo below is an actual actor who plays a statue by the fireplace!









On a side note, I found this photo back in 2007 on some online site and never was able to get the model's name BUT I do remember they were going for a "Beauty and the Beast" theme.  Once I watched the 1946 version, I see where they got some inspiration from.  Here's the photo- very cool~
