After watching Coco, my eyes filled with tears and my body trembled with excitement.
Before watching the movie, I thought it was a story about a boy pursuing his musical dream. Unexpectedly, the core of the story is affection and memory. Just as I thought at first that the protagonists were MiG and Drakus, I didn't expect that the real protagonists were hector and Coco. When Hector sang "Remember Me" to Coco, I understood why the film was called "Coco".
"I didn't write this song for the world. I wrote it for my cocoa. "
The image of Coco's mother is so like every grandmother, so kind and kind. Coco, too old to remember the people around him, vaguely remembers his father and his songs. When she returns to the world of the dead, she will call her dad sweetly when she sees him. After such a long time, she is still the little girl loved by her father.

Remember me. Please remember me before the memory of love disappears. A father who was about to travel wrote this song for his daughter, hoping that her daughter would remember him. This ballad is a common memory of father and daughter.
Hector soon regretted leaving home to pursue his dream. He always wanted to go back to his wife and daughter, but he was murdered when he first set foot on his way home. I feel sorry for Hector. Delacourt Cyrus stole everything from him, his music, his guitar, his reputation ... Delacourt Cyrus became famous in the underworld and the underworld, but hector was always poor.
So we saw this Ekto who wanted to cross the bridge from the beginning. Perhaps, every year, hector is fooling around in various ways, just to meet him across the bridge. He thinks about cocoa all the time, only to see her once, only to find that seeing cocoa again has become a luxury.
As can be seen from what imelda said, hector went to see her many times in the world of the dead, and she drove her away every time. ("How many times do you have to be rejected before you give up?" ) imelda never forgave hector, nor gave him any chance to explain.
Ekto is actually very helpless. His daughter didn't have a chance to see him, and his wife didn't want to hear his explanation.
Although I've been looking for a chance to go home, I've always wanted to go home, but fate didn't give Hector this chance.
Fortunately, Hector met MiG.

What impressed me most in the whole movie was not Hector, MiG or God of Songs, but my great-great grandmother imelda. From the beginning, she appeared as a strong woman, founded a leather shoes empire by herself, banned music, angered immigration officials, blessed MiG with harsh conditions, and confronted singers with shoes ... Behind her strong, she used to be a gentle woman who played the piano and sang with her husband every day. Perhaps, after her husband left, life forced this gentle woman into a tough woman.
She kept saying that she didn't forgive Hector. She kept saying that she hated music, but when she opened her mouth, she sang beautifully. But when she was angry with the singer, she blurted out that Hector was "the love of my life". Imelda's love for hector is the kind that goes deep into the bone marrow. In fact, hate only comes from the pain of loving too deeply. Rejecting music is just for fear of touching the scene. She said, "I wish I could forget you." But in fact, throughout her life, she never forgot him. She can only hide her heart and devote herself to her career. However, her love for her husband and music can deceive herself and her family, but not her heart.
I hate you, hate that you abandoned us, hate that I want to ruin everything related to you, hate that I can't help but hate the music that took you away from me, and I can't let it go.
I hate music, I hate that it once carried so many wonderful times for us, and I hate that it took you away from me.
I hate you, and I hate music, but I hate myself more and I hate that I can't forget you.
I hate you, but I lied to myself.

Probably only Mexicans love the culture of death so much. Pixar also showed unparalleled creativity here, creating a colorful and bizarre world of death. The ultimate death is probably the most abusive setting in this movie. When you are forgotten by everyone in the world, you are really dead. As long as someone remembers, you can still exist in the colorful world of the dead, and you will have the opportunity to return to this world to see your relatives.
When we can no longer have what we have, the only thing we can do is not to forget.
This Pixar movie is my greatest comfort this year. My grandparents passed away one after another this year, and my dog who accompanied me for nine years also passed away a few months ago. Even though I know that birth and death are irresistible natural laws in the world, I still feel uncomfortable thinking about it. Maybe as long as I remember them, they won't really leave us. Maybe, grandma comes to see me every year and wants to know if I'm doing well. Perhaps, my dear dog will have a pair of lovely little wings in that world. ...
Only family love is unconditional. Although my work is far from home, I'm still going home for the New Year. Spend more time with your family. Home is always the warmest place. Never forget the love of your family.
