My favorite Disney Hero is Beast... Once upon a time in an enchanted forest, there was a beautiful castle where a reclusive beast lived. He was once a prince but had been transformed into a monster for his mean ways. If he could learn to love and be loved by a beautiful girl, then the spell would be broken...but who could learn to love a beast?
As with so many beloved characters, we see an amazing transformation from someone who only thinks of themselves (prince pre-curse) to someone who finds love and realizes making others happy is more satisfying than personal fulfillment! And true love and his self-less act saves him and returns him to the handsome prince he once was.
