题目内容
【题目】 Emma Watson, 26, brings her childhood Disney character to life. The British actress played the beautiful girl Belle in Disney’s new live-action movie Beauty and the Beast(野兽). She also sang for the role, the first time she has done so in her career. The movie came out in China on March 17. Originally an animation(动画) film, it tells how a cursed(被诅咒的) man-beast is changed into a handsome prince by the love of Belle.
To play the lead role in Beauty and the Beast, Watson turned down the offer of La La Land, which won six awards including the Best Actress at this year’s Oscars. However, she does not regret it. She told Vanity Fair that she believes the movie says something that is important for people to hear.
This is not her first time being invited to play a Disney princess. She refused the offer to play Cinderella. But she happily took on Belle because she saw her as a better role model. Belle doesn’t mind Beast’s ugly appearance and sees his good heart within. “She remains curious, compassionate(有同情心) and open-minded,” she told Total Film. “She’s not easily swayed by other people’s ideas.”
But to build her own version of Belle, Watson had a hand in shaping the character. She wanted Belle to be busy instead of just playing in the castle all day. So she had the idea of turning Belle into an inventor, like her father. And Belle even made a washing machine herself, though people broke it. She wanted it to free girls from chores(杂物) and allow them to learn how to read. She told Entertainment Weekly that people who broke the washing machine was symbolic(象征的) of people who broke Belle’s spirit and pushed her to become the woman they wanted her to be.
