I thought it was Jessica Rabbit from Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

Quick French lesson: adjectives generally go after the noun, except when dealing with Beauty, Age, Number, Goodness, and Size (mnemonic BANGS). Therefore, une belle fille. :)

Some adjectives have 2 different meanings, depending whether they go before or after the noun. Example: filet mignon is a tender steak. Mignon filet is a cute steak.

Beautiful puzzle, by the way. :)

Kristen, I thank you for the well-meant correction, as I always appreciate having correct grammar, but I actually already knew that and was going for a poetic sound. Just like in English one could say "a beautiful girl", they could also poetically title something "a girl beautiful". However, in English it doesn't sound too pretty backwards. French kinda hides that.

I figured you knew, and maybe were calling her "A girl, Belle." I just feel compelled to share information that I think is interesting. ^_^
