Plot Synopsis
Storyline
As children, Prince Derek and Princess Odette are forced to spend their summers together by their widowed parents, who hope that the two will eventually fall in love and marry, so their two kingdoms will be united. As children and adolescents, Derek and Odette can't stand each other, but as young adults they begin to see each other in a different light and fall in love with each other. But one night things take a bad turn when Derek unintentionally offends Odette, who then refuses to marry him if he can't prove that he loves her for who she is and not just her beauty. Odette and her father are then attacked by Lord Rothbart, a vengeful sorcerer who was cast out of William's kingdom when he plotted against the king. In the form of a beast, Rothbart mortally wounds William, and kidnaps Odette then places her under a spell. Now it is up to Derek to rescue Odette by showing his undying love. But will he be in time?

Trivia
The effects for the water and the castle's reflection were borrowed from the teaser trailer, which was animated by Dream Quest Images using a combination of painted backgrounds and computer graphics and shown in theaters a year before the film's release. See more »Goofs
When Odette and William are visiting Derek's land by boat and William exits the boat, his cloak is green. In the next scene, when he is kissing Uberta, his cloak changes to blue. Then it is green again. Although none of the characters change clothing throughout the first scenes in the movie, William's cloak changes color frequently throughout his scenes. See more »Quotes

I will always love this movie. The romance and chemistry between the two main characters are great! I love how sweet and simple it is and I love the animation in it and it looks like a real fairy tale. The music and songs in this movie are so great as well. I love that we get to see the characters as children and then grow into adults. This movie will always be a part of my childhood.
