Encanto 2021

I've seen a surprising number of comments about wanting to know more about why Mirabel didn't get a door/Gift. The film explained that just fine. Mirabel's "Gift" was that she was unburdened by not having one, it gave her the vision to see the problems from the outside. She was, in essence, the human extension of the Casita itself - as proven by the ending.

As far as I'm aware, I have no Latin blood in me, but for some reason stories from these cultures resonate on a level others don't. I love every second of this film and I really appreciate this film for its message. It's a surprisingly adult message and I won't if this will fall into the same under-appreciated section of Disney & Disney Pixar as Monsters University, which had a related message (I know Encanto is just Disney, just grouping the studios for comparison). You don't need to be perfect.
