Finding the piece of the picture was nice, but much more important was getting Coco herself tell the family about her Papa. Remember what Hector said: "Our stories need to be passed down by those who knew us in life." If Miguel had just found the piece of the picture somewhere, but hadn't gotten Coco to tell her story, the picture on the ofrenda would not have been enough. Hector would have disappeared before the next Dia de Muertos when Coco died.

U only disappear when no one remembers u anymore. Miguel had to make sure Mama Coco didn’t forget him. He didn’t disappear after Coco died cuz everyone knew the truth about Hector

But you had to be remembered by someone who knew you when you were alive. In this case, Coco. If she hadn't told the family stories about Hector, she would have died and Hector would have been forgotten by the world of the dead's standarts

I watched this in the theater when it came out. You could hear other people cry when Miguel sang to Coco at the end.

Dante is a " xoloitzcuintle " a dog who was raised by the aztecs and sacrified for guide the spirit of the dead ones. I suppose, the thoughts of their rôle is still the same. The moment where Coco remembers of everything after hearing the song made me thought of a vidéo I saw on KZread. It was about an old lady with alzheimer living in a nursing home who was a ballerina during her youth. A guy made her listened the theme of " The Swan lake " and she started to do the choregraphy she did during her career (she just move her arts because she was in a wheelchair). Apparently, she died not long after this vidéo. Fun facts : Rivera was the last name of Frida Kahlo's husband. The lady who helped Miguel to came out the grave seems to be inspired of " La Catrina " a character of the mexicain culture because of her clothes (she's represents as a skeleton woman with an élégant dress and hat) It's funny because in France, we already had a movie called " Coco " but it's a comedy

"ALIVE INDIDE: A Story of Music and Memory (2014)" it's a documentary that follows social worker Dan Cohen, founder of the nonprofit organization Music & Memory, as he fights against a broken health-care system to demonstrate music's ability to combat memory loss and restore a deep sense of self to those suffering from it. Rossato-Bennett visits family members who have witnessed the miraculous effects of personalized music on their loved ones, and offers illuminating interviews with experts including renowned neurologist and best-selling author Oliver Sacks (Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain) and musician Bobby McFerrin ("Don't Worry, Be Happy").

I love this movie. For so many reasons. One of which is that Coco reminds me of the memory I have of visiting my great grandmother in Colombia when I was little. She had white hair, and barely moved around. But would sit in her chair and smile at my sister and myself. Just like Coco does to Miguel. ❤

So glad you enjoyed this one....I encourage everyone to adopt this lovely tradition of remembering our ancestors

I’m Mexican and I love this movie. Cried three times when I first watched it. Was shocked with the villain. And I love when other people watch this movie and end up loving it and crying too. Hahaha. I took my father to see it because he writes poems and lyrics and thought he would appreciate our culture in popular films.

One of my favs movie, I see it once a year (Halloween/dia de los muertos week) with my daughter and we make Mexican food, chocolate de la abuela drinks and Churros. We also started to make an altar for our love ones who passed away since we saw/came out this movie. We cry every single time.

November 1st, we decorate the altar with their pictures, the things they enjoyed in life, cempasuchil flowers and a Cross at the top to resemble they are not in heaven at the top tier of the altar. We do a get together after attending Mass of remembrance "All Souls Day". On the get together we eat, sing or dance if one feels like it, but most importantly we tell stories of our ancestors. It is just beautiful to know about them and their lives.

Fun fact: Ernesto de la Cruz was physically inspired by a lot of mariachi singers, most like him have movies like the ones he had (Golden Age of Mexican Cinema, this period had rich history as well) and you could say similar style but they said they were heavily inspired by two Jorge Negrete and Pedro Infante (which they also mentioned in the movie 24:29)

This movie was AMAZING.

It was!

At 18:22 I don't blame you for not knowing, but everytime Miguel screams like that he is not randomly screaming out off tune or something, those are Mariachi/Mexican screams and are typicaly done in a festive, celebratory way or during a song to hype the crowd and themselves. Thats also why at 35:55 De La Cruz screams like that, it's supossed to be a joke because he sounds like he is doing a Mexican scream but he is actually just hurting lol.

By the way, I don't know if you noticed it but the guitar has a golden tooth like Hector

I'm late but Dante can cross with even more reason than any other animal because he is a Xoloitzcuintle, that breed of dogs is said to guide souls to the Mictlán, which is the other side basically, and when the dogs get a new spot on their body is said that it's because they guided another soul and they basically collect them on their body, it's cultural beliefs 😊 The orange flower you see everywhere is called cempasúchil in Spanish and it's VERY important

Your mom looks like Linda levin

Someone mentioned the dog breed that Dante which is the xolo hairless dog breed which still remains a popular pet in Mexico. Another myth about the Xolo dog breed which dates back to the time of the Aztec kingdom is that the Xolo dog is almost identical in look to the Egyptian God of the underworld Anubis. Put a photo of a black Xolo dog next to a photo of Anubis and it’s eerie that they look alike and also are tied to the underworld. Anubis as the God and Dante who is a Xolo dog is a guide that helps the dead through the underworld and to Mictlan which is the souls final resting place.

I always thought that Ernesto ended up in bell jail. The living will still remember him so given that he’s already dead I don’t think he’ll be gone any time soon but maybe the dead will leave him trapped under the bell and he’ll be in a pretty appropriate afterlife prison.

Lovely reaction 😊😍

The moment when De la Cruz's conductor snaps his baton is reminiscent of the Warner Brothers cartoon 'Long-Haired Hare', in which Bugs Bunny does the same thing when impersonating Leopold Stokowski.

Today, October 16, 2022, the woman who inspired Disney in Mexico died.

I love this movie so much and I enjoyed your commentary.

Fun thing when they are sneaking into De LaCruz' party the Luchador you see taking a photo with the guard is El Santo probably the most famous Luchador of all time, wrestling for 5 decades, who also starred in more than 50 movies from the late 50s to early 80s. He is like a real life folk hero.

Exactly what I was thinking. Seems more like they seen it before tho. The reactions didn’t feel genuine to me but that’s just my opinion 🤷🏻‍♀️

One thing I saw someone point out but haven't seen anyone mentioned here yet, is that during Hector and Miguel's adventure, Hector didn't wear any shoes, but at the end when he was crossing the bridge with his family, he finally have one, likely bcs Rivera family sent it to him now that they knew him through Coco

The Xolo-Dog or Xoloitzcuintle was the guide in the world of the Dead. For Mexicas, Tlaxcaltecas, Tlahuicas and other reign prehispanics.

Saludos y gracias por este vídeo. De la cultura Mexicana.

El poso dónde avientan a Miguel y Héctor se llaman cenotes hay muchos en el sur de México, para los mayas eran lugares sagrados relacionados al inframundo

I’ve never seen this movie and watching your reaction was great as always. My real name is Pablo S. Rivera, so to see my last name be the movie families last name was shocking, to say the least. I never knew about the Ofrenda stuff, until my dad passed in 2018. We put his ashes in a little wooden box and a picture of my dad when he was 25. My mother and sister hear my dad all the time walking around the house( I haven’t lived there in years). I never cried at his funeral or his wake, I guess I was shellshocked. Watching this movie with you made me cry(a little) and for the first time in 5 years, I’m beginning to grieve for my dad. Who knew the power of KZread could do that. Thanks to you both. 🙏

Gracias por la reacción, la parte que más me gustó fue que cuando están cantando en el escenario mamá Imelda ve a su familia se dirige a ellos y cuando la agarra Ernesto, su reacción fue la mejor... lo veían con tanto odio xD eso me encantó, conectaron mucho con la familia rivera, también pasar por lo mismo cuando la ví por primera vez xD 😂

My super fav movie I'm not tired watching all over again and also most the reactor of the movie I repeatedly in tears evry time I watched this,

Tia Victoria surprised when Mama Imelda can Sing 🎉

SAD MOVIE LOVE THEY ARE TOGETHER

Yep, Benjamin Bratt is Ernesto De La Cruz!

Mama Imelda must have died in her 40's or early 50's-much like the other family members. Only Uncle Julio looked semi-old

I love Proud Corazón

Little dark fact. But even though everyone "forgets" Ernesto, it'll happen that people will actually remember him but in infamy. And since he won't be able to have a Final Death, because regardless he will still be remembered, and not only that, but the complete and utter social devastation he'll suffer in Mictlán he'll truly wish people would forget him instead. Take a real life example on all the bad people we remember as advisory tales and history.

Fun fact I found out, apparantly in Mexico, chorizo can also be slang for a penis. So them laughing at Hector for supposedly choking on a chorizo....

What happened to Hector’s clothes? He and De la Cruz wore the same outfits

Coco the movie in the movie Miguel his great great grandfather eastchester cruise he isn't Miguel's his great great grandfather his great great grandfather he is Hector fome in the movie show Coco

Beautiful reaction❤️❤️❤️ pls watch Jojo Rabbit plsssss

Mexican culture believes that our pets are meant to always be with us and take us to the afterlife , guide us to the afterlife And her cat was a flying serpent another God in Mesoamerica , there are so many references to Day of The Dead either historically or culturally in this movie ! It’s fantastic haha great you two loved it too

This Movie have too many cultural errors, and is imposible to pointed everyone on a you tube comment. But this is 7:10 is a blasfemy, you never put a picture of a living person on a ofrenda, isn't just taboo, if you put a picture of a living being that will cause a premature death of the living being on the picture. There is no "border" or border police to guard the barrier between worlds, any death one can enter or exit at any moment when the world are connected just need a dog to lead the right way, that border is just mockery on immigrant situation. There is no "flower" road, the separation between worlds is a river (in some Mexican ethnic groups is a mercury river.) The death ones who are forgotten don't desapears, they just become week and eventually lost memories of being human and becomes "ghost" who cause chaos and harm on the living world and to prevent that people make a ofrenda dedicated to all the death ones who no longer have relatives alive to offer food. That dog is imposible to be a Street, that race is really expensive, is basically walking money waiting to be taken. Dang, there is too many cultural errors and misrepresentation.
