I Am Not Making This Up: Ep. 13 Tale Literally As Old As Time
Out of all the fairy tales known worldwide, Beauty and the Beast, or “La Belle et la bete” as it is known in French, may be one of the most popular. The themes of the fairy tale are even recycled in such popular and well-known works as The Phantom of the Opera and Twilight.
Versions of this story appear around the world, and may date back 4,000 years, making Beauty and the Beast a literal tale as old as time.
