# Beauty and the Beast - Parent Guide This G-rated animated film is generally appropriate for most children, featuring a romantic fairy tale about Belle and a cursed prince with no violence, profanity, or scary moments. The moderate romantic content (kissing, dancing) may feel slightly mature for very young children, but older children and families will likely enjoy this classic tale together.
