- How Gaston's Horrific Past Led Him To A Fragile Mental State And Toxic Ego...| Beauty & The Beast
Gaston has always seemed like a rather 2-dimensional villain with his only reason for being so evil being the fact that he got rejected. But after checking out interviews with the actor who portrayed Gaston in the live-action remake of Beauty and the Beast and reading more into the creation of the character, it’s clear to see why Gaston’s mental state seemed so fragile. And it turns out that it likely has something to do with the villain’s history as a war hero and the mental scars that came with going to war.

Dealing with mental illness myself I have PTSD bipolar high functioning depression that's still no excuse to treat Belle and her father the way he did he was stalking Belle and would do anything to get her hand in marriage when she wasn't interested in him in the slightest Gaston needs to learn No means no you don't always get what you want just because he is dealing with some mental illness is no excuse to treat people awfully period .
In the standards of the time this was set in, you couldn’t be more wrong, women were seen and not heard, Gaston is a rich and adored hero in the village with high status, Belle’s father realistically would’ve forced her to marry Gaston so his status and wealth would increase since that’s what it was all about in the early 1800s
If the stuff about Gaston being a war hero is true in the original film's continuity, perhaps the Prince only befriended Gaston because of his status as a hero. And if it turns out Gaston was older than the Prince by a year or so, then that'd also play into my understanding of how the Prince was cursed into the Beast at age 16.
What 16 year old is as jacked as Gaston?
@@friendlyenemy2314well its feudal france and hard labor and hunting was one of the few way to get buy plus no sugar preservatives so people in couple ways were healthier atleast diet wise.
@@Spicystachegamer in his song he says ‘now that I’m grown I eat 5 dozen eggs’ besides he looks at least 30
I do feel bad for him
It still does not justify his actions
The villagers should have also been more helpful
They did try helping. Part of the hero worship was their efforts to help him through any war trauma he might have. And for the most part it seemed to be working, even if it also gave him a giant ego.
I just think that Gaston is a creepy stalker, I'm all for an in-depth, sympathetic villain, but Gaston to me is just a creep who refused to grow up and move on from the girl who wouldn't have him, however, I will agree that the villagers didn't exactly help Gaston's ego and instead encouraged it, I've noticed that when Gaston was rejected by Belle, he said "I'm disgraced" when he was in the pub, so I'm wondering if he'd seen sense of the villagers hadn't been a bunch of yesmen about him.
True
Even though we may consider him a stalker, it's no surprise if a guy like him existed, no girl would turn him down even if he stalked, if not at least most women
You're just jealous of neo gastonism
Hes definetley a narcissist
That was never told no
i think someone who
Has been given everything
And people always doing
Things for them would
Make them think they
Could have everything
So belle rejecting him
Destroyed his Worldview
And hurt his pride.
I disagree, i do think hes more
Then that hes a narcissist
That was seen as a hero
By everyone and always
Got what he wanted
And someone rejecting
Him or not love him
made him go insane.
I noticed when Gaston is falling to his death, if you pause the video you can see skulls in both his eyes as he is plummeting to his death at maybe 7:56
It was 7:51 everyone instead
Haha love that you pointed it out. Always saw a little flash at that point, but assumed it was lightning or something, never thought to pause and check
There is no excuse. You cannot hide behind your disease. You have to acknowledge you have a problem and seek help. His actions towards Belle, her father, and the Beast are completely out of line and all prodded by ego.
There was no help during his time, what could happen to people like him is been thrown in an insane asylum which is basically prison for the mentally ill and emotionally scarred, or death.
I am forced to agree. Whether Gaston was a war hero or not, what he did is unforgivable. In many ways, Gaston sealed his fate a long time ago when he couldn't accept the fact that Belle didn't want him.
Very true
Mental illness was not even acknowledged to exist until like the 1880's
Video is not saying it’s an excuse. Just the reason for his behavior. Understanding is just understanding.
So perhaps Gaston was longing for a deeper, more authentic love; which interestingly proves him not to be so shallow after all. While the towns folk love him, their love is impersonal. Those ladies who swoon over him are only attracted to his facade, but they can't care for him as a friend, or nurse him back to health. Maybe he's too scared to let anyone in and show the unattractive dark parts within him. His attraction to Belle could be because she is an authentic person who would be the ideal partner for him out of anyone in town- which would mean his attraction to her was deeper than it seemed all along.
This video really opened my mind to an interesting insight.
Now you're putting ideas in my head because now I'm starting to think that maybe Gaston deserve at least the chance with Belle
@@juanitamorgan5475 Well I wouldn't say that they'd be a good match; or that it would work out, per say.
I doubt it. Men like to chase and it’s better when they are hard to get. It’s nothing deep.
I know that Gaston is a villain, but WOW. It looks like the darkness in him was deeper than that.
For Gaston of being an Veteran War Hero would totally make sense for the beginning of the animated film and how he took it too far from it.
Le Fou does probably have PTSD as well, only in his case, he regressed into a always happy, child-like persona to not confront the trauma.
I think this information that was just revealed about (Gaston) is very interesting.
I think they need to also do a backstory of the Beast and what made him have a bad attitude in the beginning, and how did being Transformed into a Beast and meeting Belle help him to change? That would be awesome story just like this one.
I always thought that during the time inn War it really messed up Gaston's Head and the reason why He wanted Belle is because She's different to the Other Girls She didn't constantly throw Herself at Him
PTSD or not-that still doesn’t excuse him wanting to blackmail someone into marrying him should immediately overrule any form sympathy the villagers have for him.
(Too bad both the original animated and live the 1600s to early 1700s) where his actions might not have seemed as suspicious by people.😅 8:03
Up until World War II, I think sadly PTSD and things like shell shock were not understood at all, take it from General George Patton (1885-1945) was known to slap across the back of the head of American GI soldiers who had psychological trauma whom he thought was either one or several of their PTSD or Shell-Shock throughout the Sicily Campaign in the summer of 1943 dismissed as just plain cowardice.
You mean to tell me a lone teenager aved a small town from invaders? The other men in the town didn't know how to use guns & be men to defend their town? They didn't go off to war as well? Had Gaston not gone into the military he would've been a completely different guy he would've been a great hunter but he wouldn't be the nasty, arrogant & brute that he is.
A human being went fist to fist with a beast twice his size and forced it to use stealth tactics to win... he scared someone with magical strength with human ingenuity and tactics.
Which means one thing.... the dude never left the war and needed to be put down, cause he was ALWAYS going to be looking for the next enemy.
Gaston's backstory really is heartbreaking 110% but it still doesn't excuse his behavior throughout the movie
awwe thank you once again, keep 'em coming! 🥀
That's interesting. I wonder how close it is to the original story?
I always thought it was bc he was gay... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
But I'm gay so I tend to think everyone else is too.
wow! im early.
cool video. never knew there was such deep stuff in gaston-
i now got why Gaston is like this and i fell kinda bad for him ok not much 😓😙
I think Gaston will be my next DnD character
Something is missing what about his up bringing and how and what made him go into the military
It's an interesting back story , but a person doesn't simply become a villian just because they dont get enough attention. after all Gaston got love from so many people and there was literaly WOMEN SWOONING ALL OVER HIM!
the line in the movie, " BECAUSE SHE'S THE BEST, AND DON'T I DESERVE THE BEST?" should speak volumes. Gaston is also shown to love himself and be extremely narcisistic which is where the real villiany coems from. People who are self obsessed are going to be upset when they don't get what they want and won't settle for something they view as less. Gaston had scores of lovely ladies thatcould of mothered the children he wanted, after all he wanted boys not girls. Or atkleast he wanted 5 or 7 boys. nothing wrong with that though it's just that he was already making plans with Belle with no concern for what she wanted. That's where the real problem stems from he wasn't THINKING OF WHAT BELLES WANTS! He didn't realy care about Belle or how she felt, he just wanted a TROPHEY WIFE! because she's the best!
Origanaly when Disney was firt making this story Belle was going to have an evil step mother because in the origanal story Beuty had evil step sisters rather than some guy who felt entitled to her. Gaston was origanaly proposed as somee Narcisist who's in love himself who was supposed to be betroved to Bell her wicked Step Mother who wanted her out of way and reap riches in the process. But they scrapped her out of the movie and Gaston became the new villian.
I think the ideal of Gaston being a war hero more so shows what he was giving up rather than what made him into the villian he became. He became a villian because he was a verry self entitled, which can happen to anyone of any background. Be the person from humble beganings or a privlidged life style. If they think they deserve something and don't care about how it affects others and can't handle the fact they don't always get what they want, then they are going to try and get it if they feel that they can in any way. And they won't care how they get it if they are a selfish person. Gaston is simply selfish.
We never really know how or why Gaston's military career came to an end, but given how he acts when Belle calls him a monster, I feel like he was a ruthless commander who lusted after battlefield glory and promotions and while he won victories his company always took very high casualties as a result one day he went too far (like ordering the execution of civilians who had surrendered) and his men mutinied with only LaFou staying loyal and their testimonies were enough to get him dismissed from the army
I truly agree to that, about his backstory so I think it’s misleading in the movies. He is a kind man, that’s why I like him.
Should Gaston have his own story on a movie ? Really should be really good because Gaston maybe a very mean hunter that does not mean he is a villain he does look like one but really good character
Hi!! I love your videos btw! 😄
Gaston and Grimmel are quite Alike. Grimmel killed a dragon which made him a hero, and Gaston vindicated his village from the Portuguese. Both got overwhelmed by fame and conceited nature making them delusional.
Plus they are both poachers
Nope I don't see Gaston a sympathetic in any sense
Yeah this guy was also well into guys
If he died, how did he get to have Gill then?
i think Gaston wants to marring Belle and Belle is not going to marry Gaston and such a stalker he is and Chuck Wagner played as Gaston too on the Broadway and same two songs and different song called *Me * to get Broadway Belle get marred and what if i get married to Gaston ?
Disabled or not, evil actions and behaviors are never an excuse. You affected a lot of people because of your actions. The law doesn’t discriminate disability, you can get arrested no matter what
He's hiding his gayness
this editing and bland delivery is making me bilious
Maybe
Gaston is basically Andrew Tate in medieval France
Andrew tate isnt as fragile as
Gaston.
cept in the live-action version of the movie, Gaston really didnt seem to hold much weight and seemed to be merely tolerated by the village. In the original version of the movie, the village rallied behind Gaston without hesitation to make him feel better and celebrate his "achievements" in the song Gaston.
However, in the live-action movie, they only pitched in after Lafou paid them to do so, not because they actually cared about him. There seems to be no genuine affection at all for Gaston in the live-action movie by anyone but Lafou and the triplets.
Is it nice in terms of live-action to spread the idea they want to? yep, but I tend not to believe in these convenient backstories they come up with to justify characters in live-actions movies, it's not canon for me in terms of original movie. He keeps being an arrogant guy who refused to accept that he couldn't have everything he wanted, and society around him failed to bring him back to reality. Not all villains need to hide behind an illness to be bad.
Gaston is 99 years old
Oh man really??? Just out of curiosity, how do you know that???
Um, Wikipedia and math? ^^;
@@andrewmah2962 ok because he looks like he's 32
Kind of like oj. Only oj was not a veterajv
Wow woe
Sad
GREAT DELUXE VIDEO ❤❤❤
You're talking about him like he was a real person. He's just a cartoon character, you're not supposed to take anything he does seriously or psychoanalyze him.
Bruh !the channel is about virtual characters what are you talking about?
Turn youre brain off and consume.
I’m the only person that believes Gaston would’ve been better for Belle than the Beast?
well stockhholm syndrome...yeah pretty weird but why do u say he a good match for belle...? (sorry english my 2nd langauge)
Yes you are.
Yes
Why would you even think that?
Well, it's his opinion
I don't understand how or why you if you really are being truthful about talking with the writers of the live action film about Gaston why you wouldn't go straight to the source Linda Wolverton who created this role and opened it up more for the Broadway show and then was frozen out of being part of the live action film. Gaston being a war hero is not cannon and wasn't created by the Author of this story, so this is not real its fake and doesn't count. Linda Wolverton as stated that Gaston was written based on a few X boyfriends in her life and they really acted like thaws towards her and her girlfriends. So stop making videos off of other peoples adaptations that don't come from the original author who is still alive and should have been the one for the film and still getting paid that Disney is using her works and world that she created for them.
