 La Belle Zoraide by Kate Chopin
But tonight the story was all there in Manna Loulou's head- the story of la belle Zoraide- and she told it to her mistress in the soft Creole patois, whose music and charm no English words can convey.
"La belle Zoraide had eyes that were so dusky, so beautiful, that any man who gazed too long into their depths was sure to lose his head, and even his heart sometimes.
La belle Zoraide detested the little mulatto, with his shining whiskers like a white man's, and his small eyes, that were cruel and false as a snake's.

 "La Belle Dame sans Merci"
"La Belle Dame sans Merci" seems easy to understand at the narrative level.
Perhaps La Belle Dame sans Merci is attracted to this kind of man. Or Keats may merely be imitating the folk ballad, which is a traditional and conservative form and tends to observe class lines.
Whereas the impact of the lady on the knight is clear, her character remains shadowy.

 Enjoying "La Belle Dame Sans Merci", by John Keats
"La Belle Dame Sans Merci" means "the beautiful woman without mercy." It's the title of an old French court poem by Alain Chartier.
To Autumn is richly sensual, and contrasts the joys of autumn to the more-poetized joys of spring.
Keats was dying at the time, and as in "La Belle Dame Sans Merci", Keats is probably describing, on one level, his own final illness -- a time of completion, consummation, and peace.

 La Belle Noiseuse
La Belle Noiseuse is a thrilling and unconventional drama about the responsibility of an artist to his vision and the conflicts that arise when such responsibility is perceived as a threat to others.
The idea behind his unfinished masterpiece, La Belle Noiseuse ("The Beautiful Troublemaker"), has been seemingly unattainable for a decade; Liz was the original model for it, and Frenhofer's exhaustion with the project has an emotional parallel to his dispassionate relationship with her.
Adapted by French New Wave master Jacques Rivette from a story by Honore de Balzac, the lengthy La Belle Noiseuse is fascinated by the artistic process; it is itself a patient process of watching ideas and aesthetic courage reveal themselves in the face of extraneous aversion.

 J. Formichella: La Belle Dames as a Critical Test Case
Whatever the historical truth about the controversy, the disagreements of critics over the Lady's character seem still to be focused on the issue of her emotional and sexual "coldness," and on the question of whether or not he reasoning is meant to be taken seriously.
Within this scenario, a Belle Dame who mercilessly defies a lover's entreaties, in a "poem which defends the right of women to reject unwelcome suitors," [22] would certainly pose enough of a threat to the established order to warrant an attempt at censorship and revision.
La Belle Dame Sans Merci then is not about the Belle Dame at all, but about the differing responses to her or whatever she signifies for Keats (and we can possibly determine what that is only by examining the spectrum of responses between the texts).

 Jean Cocteau : Beauty and the Beast - La Belle et la Bete (English)
La Belle et la Bete, with Josette Day as Beauty and Jean Marais as the Beast, was the first film both written and directed by Cocteau since Le Song d'un Poete.
In La Belle et la Bete Cocteau returned to his familiar stand, showing how hard it is to distinguish reality from fantasy.
For all that, La Belle et la Bete remains a moving children's story (nothing appeals to adults more) told in the language and images of a master of both arts.

 MovieMartyr.com - La Belle Noiseuse
La Belle Noiseuse takes place in and around the estate of Frenhofer (Michel Piccoli), a recluse master painter who brings an end to his ten year hiatus from his art near the film’s beginning.
La Belle Noiseuse becomes necessary since it stretches its audience closer to the breaking point that Frenhofer and Marianne are moving toward.
La Belle Noiseuse comes with its challenges, but it also offers an undeniable opportunity for the film’s audience to alter how they think about the possibilities of film and art.

 Jean Cocteau
La Belle et la Bête is based on the famous children's story by Madame Leprince de Beaumont.
Cocteau's claim that it was La Belle et la Bête that forced him to return to film may not be wholly convincing, but it does give a sense of his close affinity with de Beaumont's writing.
As in La Belle et la Bête, Cocteau's cinematic trickery is unobtrusive and subsumes itself to the demands of the narrative.

Probably "La Belle" is one of the best of his later works.
One day when I was sick at home (before computers demanded we work during sick days), I pulled out an old VHS tape of La Belle et la Bete and the new CD and attempted to play them with a tolerable degree of syncronicity.
It was quite a challenge at times, but the magic of the original film is captured so incredibly well in the music I wished that Glass had procured the rights to sell the film with his alternate soundtrack.
