* Musical
* Entertaining and fun to watch

B. Thesis statement

* Family Is Everything: Friends will come and go, but a family will be there forever, so you
should treat them with respect, prioritize them, and most importantly: never forget them.
Coco’s entire demeanor tells us that we should treasure our family members not only when
they’re here with us, but when they pass as well
* Coco revolves around the idea that we should never forget where we came from which is
our family. Friends are temporary, family is eternal. Our family is not here forever so you
should spend quality time with them, make them priority, and treat them with respect.
**III. Body Paragraph Two**

A. Detail to support your general impression and thesis statement.

* “there are obvious areas where Coco could have been tightened and
shortened. There are a few—even borin—stretches in the second half, and the climax could
have been simplified without losing a beat. As energetic and entertaining as it is, had it been
10 minutes shorter it would have been just about right.”
 * toxic culture of abandoning kid’s ambition. Discouraging children to pursue
their passion.
Literary approache *The film portrays and represents Mexican
culture such as Clothings, Foods, Music, and Tradition

 Draft
I. Introduction
A young boy who wants to be a musician and unexpectedly finds himself communicating
with talking skeletons in the afterlife is the protagonist of the lively story “Coco.” The film,
which was co-directed by Lee Unkrich and veteran Pixar animator Adrian Molina, heavily
draws inspiration from Mexican folklore and traditional designs. It also features catchy
music, a convoluted but understandable storyline, as well as some domestic comedy and
media satire
II. Second paragragph
a. General Impression
The Coco story teaches us to value our own families through animation, adventures, comedy,
and fantasy.
b. Thesis statement
The movie describes the strange Day of the Dead experience Miguel had as a young Mexican
boy. The thorough understanding of narrative motifs has contributed to its enormous success.
The dream and kinship, death, mythical animal, and trauma narrative motifs are among its
primary ones.
III Third Paragraph
Miguel aspires to be a successful musician like his idol, Ernesto Dela Cruz, despite his
family’s perplexing, multi-generational ban on music. Miguel finds himself in the beautiful
and colorful Land of the Dead despite trying to demonstrate his talent there due to an
unknown series of events. They embark on an extraordinary journey to discover Miguel’s
family’s true history along the way.
IV Fourth Paragraph
Positive features
This is currently the best representation of Latin culture in a feature-length, high-budget
children’s movie. It won’t be the last, I hope. A movie with a Mejicano aesthetic and culture
that embraces its uniqueness while still allowing for Latinx development and expression.
Negative features
Someone was poisoned after a musician stole everything from him. For kids who watched
this, the person who was poisoned and died is not a good example.
V. Conclusion
Nothing is more important than family, we are told throughout the film, and near the end, one
of Miguel’s deceased ancestors tells him, “Never forget how much your family loves you.”
The film makes it clear that we should cherish our family members here on earth and
remember those who have passed away.
 Coco final movie review
In the lively tale “Coco,” a young boy who aspires to be a musician ends up
conversing with talking skeletons in the afterlife. With a complex but understandable plot,
catchy music, media satire, and a heavy emphasis on Mexican folklore and traditional
designs, the film was directed by Lee Unkrich and veteran Pixar animator Adrian Molina.
Animation, adventures, comedy, and fantasy all combine in the Coco story to teach us how to
value our own families.

In the movie, Miguel, a Mexican boy, describes his strange Day of the Dead
experience. Its outstanding success has been aided by a precise understanding of narrative
motifs. Its primary narrative motifs are trauma, death, death and kinship, mythical animals,
and dreams.

Miguel aspires to be a successful musician like his idol, Ernesto Dela Cruz, despite
his family’s perplexing, multi-generational ban on music. Miguel finds himself in the
beautiful and colorful Land of the Dead despite trying to demonstrate his talent there due to
an unknown series of events. Along the way, they embark on a remarkable journey to
discover the truth about Miguel’s ancestry.

This is currently the best representation of Latinx culture in a feature-length, high-

budget children’s movie. It won’t be the last, I hope. A movie with a strong critical
foundation in the Mejicano aesthetic and culture, which embraces its uniqueness while still
fostering Latin growth and expression. Someone was poisoned after a musician stole
everything from him. For kids who watched this, the person who was poisoned and died is
not a good example.

end, one of Miguel’s deceased ancestors tells him, “Never forget how much your family
loves you.” The film makes it clear that we should cherish our family members here on earth
and remember those who have passed away.
