Plot
The pic starts out with everybody getting prepared for Christmas. Lumiere and Cogsworth argue about who saved Christmas last year. Flake begs Mrs. Potts to tell the story. After hesitating, she agrees. Soon anybody is gathered around Mrs. Potts every bit she tells the story and the events of what happened after Creature saved Belle from the wolves...
When the story fades into a flashback of when the Prince was the Animate being, and his servants were the Enchanted Objects, Belle is notwithstanding a prisoner in Beast's castle. All the servants are trying to effigy out a way for them to fall in love with each other, and with Christmas coming up, they expect at this equally a smashing opportunity to bring them together. Belle is excited about Christmas, but Beast is not happy seeing how information technology is the anniversary of his spell existence cast upon the castle.
Meanwhile, in an unknown function of the castle (through a hugger-mugger door in the West Wing), an enormous pipe organ is playing very creepy music while his minion, Fife, a pocket-size piccolo applauds. The organ is Forte, the court composer for the musicians during his homo years. The organ actor though is not in the mood to be mortal over again, then he decides to effigy a way for the creature to steer clear of falling in love with Belle. He believes that "humanity is overrated" and that he has more utilize and ability in his enchanted form.
He tells Fife that he has written a solo for a piccolo in his opera, which persuades Fife to help him in breaking upward the merriment betwixt Belle and Animal. Fife manages to interrupt Belle and Beast's skating, and when Belle makes a snow angel, Animate being sees his "angel" equally a "shadow of a monster" and leaves in fury and depression.
Assertive that Christmas will burnish Beast's mood, Belle creates a wonderful new book for him, and with a little persuasion for Cogsworth, Christmas is officially being prepared. The gang goes to the highest tower in the castle, which serves every bit a storage room for former decorations. In one of them lies Angelique with a number of other animated baubles, who in one case served as the Royal Decorator. Nevertheless, she is not pleased to hear well-nigh Christmas, arguing that she will not enhance her hopes again in a belief that they could all go together in celebration, only to have them destroyed by Beast's foul atmosphere and hatred for the holiday. Belle sings to them about how "promise is the greatest gift", saying that there is always hope, even for breaking the spell, and there will "always be a fourth dimension when the world is filled with peace and beloved". Eventually, Angelique reluctantly agrees.
Notwithstanding, Fife has been overhearing all this and rushes off to tell Forte. When Animal finds out, he is not at all pleased. Forte plays forth, saying that "the girl doesn't intendance how you feel about Christmas", separating the two even more than. Beast reflects on his by: Christmas was the twenty-four hour period he was virtually selfish and spoiled, and it was on that twenty-four hour period, the Enchantress put the spell on him and the castle.
Belle enters the boiler room and meets Axe (Jeff Bennett), head of the boiler room. She tells him she needs a Yule Log, and he tells her to help herself. Beast finds her and demands to know what is going on. She explains that information technology is a great tradition: "ane log is chosen, so everyone in the business firm touches it, and makes a Christmas wish". Animate being, even so, claims that wishes are stupid and bellows at Belle, "You fabricated a Christmas wish final year! Is this what y'all wished for?!" He shouts that she has no thought what it is to be a true prisoner, merely she knows all too well. Finally, he forbids Christmas and storms out.
Belle will not surrender, and concludes that they will accept Christmas with or without Animate being, merely not before sending him her gift, the storybook. Belle and Chip accept Axe with them to go await for a Christmas tree, but none on the grounds are very promising. Animal finds his souvenir, simply Lumiere will not permit him to open it as it is not notwithstanding Christmas. He explains that everyone understands how Beast feels about the vacation, merely giving a gift to another is a way of proverb "I care virtually y'all". Beast gets in the mood, and demands Forte to etch a vocal as a present, who agrees unhappily. When he leaves, Forte puts his plans in motion, and plays beautiful music, attracting Belle to his room. Forte quickly manipulates the state of affairs, telling her that the tree has always been Beast's favorite office of Christmas, and that she would discover a much better tree lies in the Black Forest, the woods outside the castle.
Getting the tree would pause Belle's promise never to get out the castle, but she wants to brand Creature happy, then she agrees to go, taking Chip and Axe. Forte orders Fife "to make certain they don't come up back". Animal is still waiting for Belle to show upward, merely Forte claims, "she'southward abandoned y'all!" and feeds Animal's acrimony and served him equally his mindless slave, trying to persuade him to forget her, he transport Beast to destroyed Christmas decorations and dinner room, trying to persuade him to forget her, but he races out anyhow. In his acrimony, Forte has Beast (beingness hypnotizing) destroys the decorations in the dining room where Angelique was on his fashion out, leaving Angelique hopeless. Meanwhile, Belle and the others wait for a tree, but Fife accidentally startles Philippe on the water ice, creating a chain reaction that leads to Belle nigh drowning and existence rescued past the hypnotized and furious Beast.
Belle is locked in the dungeon for breaking her promise, but Angelique visits with the other baubles and admits that she was wrong to believe that Christmas could never come. They all hold that they practice non need decorations or gifts to gloat Christmas; they accept each other, which is the best gift they could ever enquire for. Meanwhile, prompted by Forte, Beast threatens to destroy the rose, but one of the flower petals falls on the present Belle gave to him earlier. When Forte's hypnotic spell on Fauna is cleaved, he then remembers the gift Belle gave him, opens it, and reads it. Remembering there is hope to suspension the spell, he ignores Forte, asks her for forgiveness, releases her from the dungeon, and plans to accept the best Christmas.
Enraged at the failure of his plans, Forte plans to bring the whole castle downwards with the rationale that they cannot fall in love if they are dead. This horrifies Fife, who finds it far too extreme, and then he learns that his promised solo is bare. Animate being manages to go into the room, merely Forte's powerful music confounds him equally he has no idea what to strike at. With Fife'southward advice, he unplugs Forte past ripping out the keyboard below him and hurls it with his forcefulness. With the keyboard destroyed, Forte begins to panic and accidentally breaks the support mounts that held him upwardly, causing him to fall over. Beast laments the death of his old confidant.
Yet, together they continue to accept a happy holiday, which brings us back to the actual party, simply of class, if anyone actually saved Christmas, information technology was Belle. The others gloat as the Prince gives Belle a souvenir, a single rose.

Trivia

- Bernadette Peters (Angelique) and Tim Curry (Forte) had both appeared together in the 1982 Columbia film version of Annie every bit Lily St. Regis and Rooster Hannigan, the corresponding kidnappers, making this the second pic in which they both appeared. This time, withal, they played the roles of characters who were enemies.
- The axe is very stereotypically Jewish, using phrases like "Oy, gevalt!" and "Merry Christmas, and a Happy Hanukah!" His 'official' name (though the scene it was used was cut for time) is 'Mister Feurerwerker', too a Jewish name loosely translating to 'Fire-worker'.
- This is Disney's first characteristic-length animated motion-picture show to have its music score composed past a female person composer; the next being Walt Disney Animation Studios' Encanto (whose music score would exist composed by Germaine Franco), as near Disney blithe films are scored by male person composers (although some have songs partially composed by female songwriters).
- While the both the VHS and the 1998 and 2002 Special Edition DVD releases nowadays the motion-picture show in open matte full screen format, the moving-picture show was released in cropped widescreen format for the first time on the 2011 DVD and Blu-ray releases.
- This was the first Disney animated film to have a DVD release.
- Later on Forte says "I remember non" and plays his showtime chord, in that location is a moment of silence every bit a chandelier drops and Chip asks "What's happening?". This moment is reminiscent of the chandelier drib in Phantom of the Opera, as there is no musical score in the groundwork as it drops. The simply sound every bit the chandelier drops is the chain loosening in Enchanted Christmas.
- Despite the film's VHS and DVD box art prominently depicting Belle in her iconic red wintertime outfit as seen during the "Something In that location" musical number from the original film, Belle wore that cerise dress only at the terminate of this film.
- Maurice appear in this moving-picture show in a non-speaking cameo. Rex Everhart was supposed to reprise his role only.
- When the film was re-released on Blu-Ray and DVD in 2011, the following edits for the remastered version brought some pocket-size changes from previous releases of the film:
- The film is disordered to match widescreen formats, while the original release was held in a one.33:1 aspect ratio.
- The colors patently, are slightly pale.
- When Belle sings "It'll stay up until July..." in the original release, the camera is at a tilting Dutch angle, where every bit in the later release, information technology is straight.
- When Forte introduces himself to Belle ("I am Miestro Forte, court composer...") the sound appears to be slightly out of synchronization and there is a slight pause focusing on the steps before the camera pans up to Forte.
- When Forte shouts "I THINK NOT!" there is a keyhole cutaway when the photographic camera zooms out, in the earlier releases, there is none.
- The Christmas angel on the tree at the finish of the flashback is replaced by one resembling Angelique.
- The terminate credits are golden xanthous like the end credits of the get-go movie instead of chalk white like in the before releases.
