In the beginning of the film, Remy steals Gusteau's recipe book from the house of an older lady. The old woman at the beginning of the film is Anton Ego's mother. She's "one of them" because a bunch of older cars found a young car in distress and adopted her. She's in love with the town because they saved her. She probably had a family that she left behind without a word. She didn't call for a tow or anything - she was found, broken down, alone in the desert, driving away from her life without a destination. Then she talks about how Mater found her and towed her back. We know that cars die in this universe, and I would suspect breaking down and crashing are the only ways that happens. Then she says she drove away from home into the desert until she "broke down." Not ran out of gas, broke down. This is a common sign of depression - not being able to find happiness even in situations where most others do. She responds that she did indeed have a lavish life "but wasn't.happy" with a far off look.
When Lightning drives off with Sally to the wheel well, he asks her how a (likely rich) city Porsche ended up in Nowheresville. The conceptualization they offer around flow and the potential obsession that can happen when fully absorbed is engaging.Ok, so I watch this with my toddler a lot and noticed that Sally's story is a bit dark.

If you are interested in more about Free Play, you can read my short essay Free Play: Some Standouts of Nachmanovitch’s Book.Ĭsikszentmihalyi (2014) describes as flow experiences “the well-ordered, fully functioning dynamic state of consciousness” (p. This Samadhi is about disappearing into the work and creation that we are doing. In Nachmanovitch’s (2014), he explains that when somebody is in a selfless state and absorbed with absolute concentration. We see 22 about to pop some people out of the flow with mischievous smile.īuddhists have described this zone as Samadhi. Pixar’s depiction of people who have entered the flow. Twenty-two, an ancient soul who had never been human before, described this area as “the space between the physical and spiritual.” Near The Great Before is a place that people go when they get the zone.

Soul dives into many aspects of what makes us people, our personality, the things that spark us, and does a similar job to Inside Out. I would propose that the format of animation affords Pixar to make these boundary-pushing visions. Soul reminded me Inside Out in that it pushes the theories of how our minds work to a manner of portraying it that is novel and elegant. One of the things I appreciate, other than being able to watch them with my kids, is how they push the boundaries and offer new ways of imagining the world and concepts we have. Before subscribing to Disney Plus, which is a great value, I purchased most of them on iTunes. I have for many years been in love with Pixar like so many people. Pixar’s 2020 Soul ( Wikipedia Article or Pixar Article is a great movie that offers a fascinating picture of the flow state and obsession that can happen.
