[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]My 12 year old ordered this movie last night, and this morning, took me by the hand and asked me to sit down with him to watch it.  He hash't done that kind of thing in years.  Halfway through, he lay down with his head in my lap to watch the rest.  [/b]

I had never even heard about this movie.   However adults perceive it, if my son's reaction is any evidence, this movie really resonates with kids.

I did think the music was terrific!  I wondered "was Lin Manuel Miranda involved with this" when I heard one of the ballads interspersed with some rapping.

The story and message were also great.  The best Disney I've seen in many many years. [/quote]

What’s funny? I think PP’s story is sweet and jibes with my own experience. I watched with two 12 year old boys who were also struck by it. Afterwards I kind of jokingly quipped ”Well, that was a heartwarming Disney movie about generational trauma.” One of the boys looked at me and just said very seriously “No, it was about family.”

A lot of it is quite deceptively dark, but kids have a much greater appetite for darkness than any of us give credit for. [/quote]

Oh, sorry, I thought it was a troll? Mimicking the moms who are passionately defending Encanto? [/quote]
