Episode 3: Beauty and the Beast (Lang's Blue Fairy Book)
We're on to the first English version of the Beauty and the Beast fairytale! Distinguishing features: naïve Beauty, stage-stealing Dream Prince, small instances of simple magic, and a surprisingly-subverted ending.
Episode 2: La Belle et la Bête (Beaumont)
There's a reason most sources point to this adaptation as the "original" Beauty and the Beast, even though Villeneuve's came first.
