Coco, the animated feature from Disney and Pixar, won the Golden Globe for Best Animated Feature Film at the 75th ceremony January 7, 2018. It was nominated for Best Original song. It won two Academy Awards. For me, it is one of the best movies ever, in the same company as Wall-E and Up.
Coco, released November 2017, is the first movie with a nine-figure budget ($175M) to feature an all-Latino principal cast. The film has been praised for its respect for the Mexican culture through music, voice acting and its heart-warming story. The film is based on the Mexican holiday, Dia de Muertos (Day of the Dead).
The story follows Miguel, a twelve-year-old boy who is accidentally transported to the Land of the Dead, where he has to seek help from his deceased great-great-grandfather to return to his family in the living.
It won two Academy Awards, one for Best Animated Feature and the other for Best Original Song, Remember Me. It won a Golden Globe for Best Animated Feature Film. It won just about every Best Animated Film award out there.
