For most of us millennials and Gen Zers, Beauty and the Beast was our first exposure to Angela Lansbury. But if you are interested in theatre, classic Hollywood, and mystery television, Beauty and the Beast should not be your only exposure to Angela Lansbury. She started her professional acting career at a young age, starring as the scandalous maid in the 1944 film Gaslight. That earned her a Best Supporting Actress nomination at the Oscars, as did her performance in The Portrait of Dorian Gray in 1945. She worked steadily as a contract player for MGM for years, earning her 3rd and final Oscar nomination in 1962 for The Manchurian Candidate. After the loss, it was clear Hollywood stardom wasn't going to happen for her. She was bored playing people's mothers and other boring supporting roles, so she transitioned to starring on Broadway, which proved to be an excellent career shift.
Her Broadway career exploded when she starred in Mame, where she earned her first Tony Award. She later won four more in shows like Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street and Dear World. She is best known for her television work, starring as detective Jessica Fletcher on Murder, She Wrote. She did several Disney movies, including Bedknobs and Broomsticks, but none of her other Disney roles hold a candle (or a candlestick) to her legacy as Mrs. Potts. Nobody could have sung Beauty and the Beast as well as she did.

Is wearing a corset inherently anti-woman? That was Emma Watson's perspective when she refused to wear a corset while playing Belle, and it's a valid one. She didn't want young girls to look at her body in a corset and feel like their natural shape was not beautiful. There is a misconception that women wore corsets every day of their lives, and that is simply not true. Women of all eras have worn more restrictive clothing for formal occasions because, for the purpose of that event, looking fancy matters more than being comfortable. It's not anti-woman for a woman to wear more makeup on the day of her wedding, nor is it anti-woman to wear uncomfortable structural garments for a ball with the beast that you love!

Are there women out there who really want to date a guy with a hand the size of a baseball glove?
