Coco

Coco is a 2017 American animated fantasy comedy-drama film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. It was directed by Lee Unkrich, co-directed by Adrian Molina, and produced by Darla K. Anderson, from a screenplay written by Molina and Matthew Aldrich, and a story by Unkrich, Molina, Aldrich, and Jason Katz, based on an original idea conceived by Unkrich. The film stars the voices of Anthony Gonzalez, Gael García Bernal, Benjamin Bratt, Alanna Ubach, Renée Victor, Ana Ofelia Murguía, and Edward James Olmos. The story follows a 12-year-old boy named Miguel (Gonzalez) who is accidentally transported to the Land of the Dead, where he seeks the help of his deceased musician great-great-grandfather to return him to his family and reverse their ban on music. The concept for Coco is inspired by the Mexican holiday Day of the Dead. Pixar began developing the animation in 2016. Unkrich, Molina, Anderson, and some of the film's crew visited Mexico for research. Composer Michael Giacchino, who had worked on prior Pixar animated features, composed the score. With a cost of $175–225 million, Coco is the first film with a nine-figure budget to feature an all-Latino principal cast. Coco premiered on October 20, 2017, during the Morelia International Film Festival in Morelia, Mexico. It was theatrically released in Mexico the following week, the weekend before Día de Muertos, and in the United States on November 22, 2017. The film received acclaim for its animation, voice acting, music, visuals, emotional story, and respect for Mexican culture. It grossed over $814 million worldwide, becoming the 16th highest-grossing animated film ever at the time of its release. Coco received two awards at the 90th Academy Awards and numerous other accolades. The film was chosen by the National Board of Review as the Best Animated Film of 2017.

I know I'm not supposed to love music. (CHUCKLES) But it's not my fault! It's his! Ernesto de la Cruz. The greatest musician of all time. TOUR GUIDE: Right here in this very plaza, Ernesto de la Cruz took his first steps... toward becoming the most beloved singer in Mexican history. MIGUEL: He started out a total nobody from Santa Cecilia, like me. But when he played music, he made people fall in love with him. - (HORSE NEIGHING) - He starred in movies. He had the coolest guitar! He could fly! And he wrote the best songs. But my all-time favorite, it's... ♪ Remember me ♪ Remember me ♪ Though I have to say goodbye - ♪ Remember me - ♪ Remember me ♪ Don't let it make you cry For even if I'm far away ♪ I hold you in my heart I sing a secret song to you ♪ Each night we are apart Remember me ♪ Though I have to travel far - ♪ Remember me - ♪ Remember me ♪ Each time you hear a sad guitar ♪ Know that I'm with you the only way that I can be ♪ Until you're in my arms again ♪ MIGUEL: He lived the kind of life you dream about.

Sometimes, I look at de la Cruz and I get this feeling like we're connected. Like if he could play music, maybe someday, I could too.

If it wasn't for my family. - Ay-ay-ay, muchacho. - Huh? I asked for a shoe shine not your life story. - Oh, yeah. Sorry. - (STRUMS GUITAR) I just can't really talk about any of this at home. So... If I were you, I'd march right up to my family and say... "Hey, I'm a musician. Deal with it." I could never say that. You are a musician, no? (STAMMERS) I don't know. I mean, I only really play for myself. Ah! Did de la Cruz become the world's best musician by hiding his skills? No! He walked out onto that plaza and he played out loud. Mira, mira, they're setting up for tonight! The music competition for Dia de Muertos. You want to be like your hero? You should sign up! Uh-uh. My family would freak! Look, if you're too scared then, well, have fun making shoes.

I found your son in Mariachi Plaza. Ay, Miguel! You know how Abuelita feels about the plaza. I was just shining shoes. A musician's shoes! (ALL GASP) But the plaza's where all the foot traffic is. If Abuelita says no more plaza, then no more plaza. - But what about tonight? - What's tonight? Well, they're having this talent show. (STAMMERS) And I thought I might... - Sign up? - Well, maybe? (LAUGHS) You have to have talent to be in a talent show. What are you gonna do? Shine shoes? (GROANS) It's Dia de los Muertos. No one's going anywhere. Tonight is about family. - (SPITS) - Ofrenda room. Vamonos.

- (KISSES) - (SIGHS) Don't give me that look. Dia de los Muertos is the one night of the year our ancestors can come visit us. We've put their photos on the ofrenda so their spirits can cross over. That is very important. If we don't put them up, they can't come. We made all this food, set out the things they loved in life, mijo. All this work to bring the family together. I don't want you sneaking off to who knows where. (GASPS) Where are you going? (STAMMERS) I thought we were done. Ay, Dios mio. Being part of this family means being here for this family. I don't want to see you end up like... MIGUEL: Like Mama Coco's papa? Never mention that man! He's better off forgotten. - But you're the one who... - (TUTTING) - I was just... - (SHUSHING) - But... I... - (SHUSHING) Papa? Papa is home? Mama, calmese, calmese. Papa is coming home? No, Mama. It's okay. I'm here.
