Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas (1997)
1 question
Directed by: Andrew Knight
Starring: David Ogden Stiers, Jerry Orbach, Paige O'Hara, Robby Benson
Continuity mistake: When Chip unwraps his present, near the beginning of the film, he rips the red ribbon off twice. (00:01:25)
Answer: It's unknown how long Belle was at the castle. This sequel, The Enchanted Christmas, was made as an afterthought to the original Beauty and the Beast film, and there was no consideration or explanation about how this would fit into the original timeline. This is a stand-alone film, and it is typical of how the more popular Disney animated films, such as The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, etc. have added-on stories that are usually released straight-to-video.
