Hm. Weird, I was just watching Beauty & the Beast couple of days ago.
I totally agree with everything that has been mentioned here.
Beast is totally relatable to Edward, I mean, the guy pretty much feels he's a 'freak' or whatever you may call it. The fact that Edward could read minds, he finds himself so much of a freak already. And then there's also the part how at first, the Beast was being mean/threatening to Belle. Edward's kind of the same thing, although he kept it to himself. Like, the first time Bella sits next to him in their Biology class, Edward stayed away from her as possible, and Bella took that in a way as if he wanted to kill her or something.
Another thing relatable would be the whole 'keeping the secret' thing. For Beast, he made it forbidden for Belle to go to the west wing, and for Edward, he didn't want to tell Bella in the beginning what or who he was. It's really interesting, there were so much similarities in the story.
Oh, and another thing. Belle lived with her father. Bella lives with Charlie.
Yeah, that's all I could point out for now.
