Up

Hooray for Pixar! It was hard for me to understand how the premise for this movie could work, but it worked so beautifully! I could tell it had an emotional secret -- everyone who watched it and raved about it talked about it shyly. And that secret is Ellie! Oh, it was wonderful to see this film -- it was clever, funny, perfectly timed, and bursting with marvelous Christian allegory, but in a way that was so subtle and indirect, that I can only call it "mythological."

Maybe my love of bottle caps is clouding my vision? Hard to tell. I know one thing -- Disney could never have made this movie -- it won't sell any toys, or spawn sequels. It simply sits quietly as a masterpiece. Hooray for Pixar!
