Hit: 5 Stars
There may be no more beautiful soundtrack in movies or television than "Of Love and Hope: Music and Poetry from 'Beauty and the Beast.' The music reaches into the very marrow of your bones and the poetry selections almost are seared into your heart. And Ron Perlman, as Vincent, reading in a soft spoken voice the works of such poets as Rainer Maria Rilke, e.e. cummings and William Shakespeare, is outstanding. I saw recently this CD is selling for $75. Well, as another writer said, despite the cost, it has real value because it is so beautiful. The CD, like the show, reaches far beyond the mundane and is certainly an improvement over what is on TV today. Watching B&B and listening to this, and then having to put up with such stupidity and inanity as Jessica Simpson or reality TV shows is like going from the sublime to the ridiculous - like going from diamonds to rust. There really is no comparison.
There was talk when this CD came out that ther would be a sequel featuring Linda Hamilton as Catherine but that never came to be and that truly is a shame. Sadly, this version of B&B must have been too intelligent and too romantic for the average male viewer because CBS yanked it after the 3rd season (once Linda Hamilton left after the 2nd season, it was all but over anyway). It may be a very long time before we get anything as wonderful as B&B; Ms. Hamilton and Mr. Perlman went on to bigger (though definitely not better) things. But to me, the best work these 2 actors have ever done and will ever do is this series.
