Happy Feet
59Watch it awake.
An odd child, and a true thing about the sea. The sermon is loud. The child is loved.
The review
Mumble cannot sing the heartsong and so the elders treat him as a curse. His father is ashamed. His mother is not. The film's other half is the overfishing that is actually starving the colony, which is a fair thing to show and a blunt way to show it. Both halves belong: the colony was wrong about the dancer, and the sea was not bottomless.
A child who has been told they are the wrong kind can use the first half. Do not let the second half become despair. It is a call to look at what we take.
Journal
Keep Happy Feet in the record.
No house has filed a sentence for this yet.
Live Historic number 59. Yours can differ.
The glance
Piety is the thin one.
Can conscience actually stop someone, or is reverence only in the shot so it can be mocked?
This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.
Consider this
Coco
73 instead of 59
Coco is still a animation film, and it scores 73 instead of 59. What you gain is household: The whole plot is a family remembering.
