Thoughts on Inside Out
Nine years ago today, I saw Inside Out. After posting my enjoyment of the movie on Facebook, a few friends expressed disinterest over it from the trailer. This was my response:
First thing to know is that the trailer is the most base level of introduction to the movie, it simplifies a complex world and story into a very simple concept. The trailer doesn't even really introduce you to the real main character adequately. Don't judge the movie by the trailer.
The movie weaves the complex story of growing up and learning your emotions into a narrative and world which really resonated with me. It wonderfully simulates and represents the things that go on in our heads.
It's emotionally powerful such that I was left in tears multiple times, once during a scene which was perfectly punctuated by a well timed question from child to parent. But the movie has layers such that kids are entertained while parents are thinking and understanding.
It was just amazingly done.
