Watch Angela Lansbury & Jerry Orbach Record ‘Be Our Guest’
The clip from the Beauty and the Beast production comes from a new documentary centered on lyricist Howard Ashman.
Songs from the Disney renaissance are sources of nostalgia magic, able to transport listeners back to the theater where they first heard it or to their parents' living room full of careworn VHS tapes. Seeing the studio effort behind these songs, starring the voice actors who made them iconic, is an experience unto itself and brings things full circle.
