Beloved Beast (2018)
9/10
A Dark Fairy Tale
15 October 2022
Story about a girl who gets in a car accident and tragically looses her parents and having to stay with a related as her guardian. Jonathan Holbrooks direction in this story will put you into a world of haze around it's characters by showing specific points of their character.

The story almost feels like a three part because you follow the girl (Sanae Loutsis) through a stage of confusion, the feeling of lost and companionship.

A hint of folk lore also plays it's part in this with the damsel in distress missing love and the beast who could not feel it but accept it. You can't help but feel for "Harvey" in this due to his nature but it's a mere subtle of a dilusion because even a loyal animal can't be tamed for what it's always been.

The cast in this does it well giving the audience a take on who these people are and the misery they carry in this universe.

It is a film to take in that provides it's own unique way if story telling.
