Cupid and Psyche
Curiosity is an evil master.  A beautiful princess has a husband she can never see.  He visits her only in the dead of night.  When curiosity overcomes her, she discovers who he really is - only to be cruelly abandoned.  Now Psyche must begin an impossible task: to find her husband, even descending to the depths of Hell in her search.  But she has earned the wrath of Venus by rivalling her in beauty, and the vengeful goddess will stop at nothing to destroy her.
