\"description was plagiarized\" Well, yes. I admit it. To get something out as quickly as possible,I used the promotional blurb off the back of the book.Which summarises it quite nicely and does the job. Is this frowned upon?

Further, there are just as many points showing that he values Belle\'s mind just as much as her body. He tells Le Fou that what he finds so outrageously attractive is her dignity.

In his interactions with Maurice, he has done nothing but try to help out the old man, even though he doesn\'t believe him that there\'s a beast (which, remember, as a villager, he has been cursed just like everyone else to not think there\'s a beast). Gaston would like nothing more than for there to be a beast; look at how readily he assembles a mob. Given that he\'s an avowed hunter, and sees himself as a hero, what better way for him to prove himself, not just to Belle, but to himself, than killing the monstrous beast and saving the girl? And yet, even though he thinks Maurice is wrong, he\'s still going along with everything and trying to humor the old man.

I\'m not arguing that Gaston is \'the Hero\' but that he\'s far more heroic than in the animated version.
