Third in my Slow Motion animation Gifs article Series, I give toi Beauty and the Beast from 1991.
Now, Beauty wasn't one of my favori Disney films when I grew up, but over time, I've come to be rather fond of it. The musique is great, I have the whole score (songs in instrumental included) on my computer. The animation is good as well, but there are a few scenes where I think Disney could have done it better. But I'll get to them as I make plus GIFs from the movie.

Number of frames: 46 frames.
Description of the sequence: Belle goes to town and sings about how everything always is the same.
PrueFever's comment: I always loved this shot of Belle. She looks really beautiful here.
Image 2: Princess Belle
As she has entered the West Wing of the Beast's castle, Belle stumbles upon a torn picture of the human version of the Beast. She takes a closer look at the picture.
Now, this sequence of Belle as she studies the picture, is just perfect. Belle is really beautiful here.

Belle pushes Gaston away as she realizes his evil plan.

Walt Disney Character description of Shanti, The Girl from "The Jungle Book" (1967)
The little lass with a red spot on her forehead who comes down from the manvillage to captivate Mowgli is full of eastern promise. Although it will be a decade ou so before the promise turns into anything else, she nevertheless enchants Mowgli as she fetches water from the river and sings the song "My Own Home", yet another fine piece of work from the Sherman Brothers.
She has little par way of character except her basic allure, which weaves a plus powerful spell upon Mowgli than even Kaa's hypnotic attempts. Baloo advises the boy when he sees a female human for the first time: "Forget about those - they ain't nothin' but trouble!"
Mowgli, though youthful, has plus sense.
