I’m the girl who loves her island, and the girl who loves the sea, it calls me.

Take it with you. So you'll always have a way to look back and remember me.

Ever wondered why Belle walks and reads at the same time? Here’s the story behind this iconic detail!

Linda Woolverton (the screenwriter of the movie) had a hard time convincing the animators to depict her new version of Belle. She explained to the Los Angeles Times one frustrating incident: In one scene, the screenplay had Belle pushing pins into a map of the world—places she wanted to visit—while waiting for her father to return. When Woolverton saw the segment on the storyboard, however, she found her heroine decorating a cake. In the end, Belle was shown reading a book— which also had provoked some discussion. Because reading might be deemed a passive hobby, the opening scene has her walking and reading at once—which Woolverton herself used to do as a child. (x)
