This leads her to be perceived by others as odd or unusual and makes her stand out. ‘her nose stuck in a book, what a puzzle to the rest of us, is Belle’. Belle shows a love for reading and knowledge throughout the film. In this shot, Belle looks out of place against the other women in the scene, as she is costumed in a bold blue dress compared to the dull background. This isolates Belle as a unique character and mimics how Belle is perceived by others as different because her values are different from what is conventional in 18th-century French society.‘Look there she goes that girl is strange no question, Never part of any crowd’ The townspeople sing about Belle in a song. Condon uses a wide shot to capture the many townspeople singing, showing how this is a common idea with many people shown to agree with it. This shows that Belle's character shows themes of individuality as she chooses to be herself a person instead of conforming to the ideas she's expected
