Belle et Sébastien is a 1965 novel by Cécile Aubry[1][2][3]about a six-year-old boy named Sébastien and his dog Belle, a Great Pyrenees, who live in a village in the French Alps close to the Italian border. Sébastien lives with his adopted grandfather, sister, and brother, as his mother, a Romani, died after giving birth to him while trying to cross the border on Saint Sebastian's day. The novel, known in English-speaking countries as Belle and Sebastian, was made into a French live action television series in 1965, a Japanese anime version in 1981, and a motion picture in 2013, followed by two sequels in 2015 and 2017.
Here you can Find all Classical Cartoons with Bugs Bunny, Pink Phanter, Tom & Jerry, Mickey Mouse and Many more. Belle is known as the Beast. One day Sebastian encounters her - she is filthy and preys on the sheep for survival, thus making her a target. Sebastian finds her, cleans her up and she is no longer the Beast and Belle and Sebastian secretly bond. This story takes place during WWII in 1943 and the drama and adventure come from the German Occupation. The band BELLE AND SEBASTIAN actually did name themselves after the old cartoon, and got permission from the cartoonist for it. They are fans themselves of the cartoon, and their music is quite wonderful. I have to admit that i have never seen the cartoon and hence have no references for that. But i highly recommend BELLE AND SEBASTIAN for.
BACKGROUND: Having a childhood split between Gloucestershire and Ayrshire doesn’t seem to have confused Beans too much. He joined Belle & Sebastian having perhaps the best musical pedigree of them all, his previous band having supported riot grrls The Voodoo Queens. The discography of Belle and Sebastian, a Scottish indie pop band, features ten studio albums, three compilation albums, two live albums, two box sets, eight extended plays (EPs), twelve chart singles and one DVD. It also includes a variety of demos and non-album singles, as well as two DJ mix compilations.
