Is Belle a classist snob? Who is Chip's dad? And what kind of enchantress curses an 11-year old boy and an entire staff of innocent people? Back in 1991, no one cared that the beloved "Beauty and the Beast" had some curious politics. The Disney film even went on to become the first animated feature ever to be nominated for a Best Picture Oscar. But now, decades later, are we noticing something there that wasn't there before? The Old Roommates take the bloom off the rose, adjust their middle-aged lens, and re-watch a tale as old as time. Listen to this.
