    Storyline

    Edit
    Before going on a voyage, the merchant Stepan Yemelyanovich asks his three daughters what they would like him to bring as a gift to them. The eldest daughter, Gordeya, asks for an expensive decoration - a golden crown decorated with semi-precious stones. The average, Lyubava, orders a magic mirror in which her face will always look young, and the youngest, Nastya, asks her father to bring her a scarlet flower, similar to the one she saw in a dream. Sisters laugh at her desire. —Peter-Patrick76 (peter-patrick@mail.com)

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The film is an example of the Socialist Realism period in Russian animation, which lasted from the 1930s to 1950s and featured heavy use of rotoscoping as well as a focus on adapting traditional Russian folk tales. Nearly all of the character animation in the film was first performed by live actors or animals and then traced by the animators.

    Everyone is about Disney's B&B
    Now let's clarify this! This is the original story that Disney has adopted to make the Beauty and The Beast movie they made it more cheesy dribbling of saliva. No offense, but this is the original B&B not the Disney one as everyone think it is.
