No matter how often Disney movies begin with a  dead mother , they rarely dwell on grief. Pixar movies, on the other hand, have always trafficked in melancholy. They often explore the many facets of loss. They’re funny-sorrowful, melodies in a minor key, tonally Jewish. And this season’s installment is the most mournfully engaging yet. Just look at the dolorous history of Pixar films: The  Toy Story  trilogy is about how we humans can never truly know those we love; it ponders the losses we incur simply by growing up.  Finding Nemo  and  Finding Dory  look at parents’ fears of losing a child, and concerns about raising a child with a disability.  Ratatouille  is about all the Proustian associations we have with food—how transporting a taste can be, how tied into golden-toned, long-in-the-past memories.  Brave  is about mothers and daughters and the necessary pain of growing apart.  Inside Out  is about coming to accept ...

The animated movie, which is set during the  Día de Muertos festival, has a comforting and hopeful view on death. It’s not easy to explain the confusion, sadness and guilt to children who have lost someone close to them. It may be their first experience of death and they are likely to have many questions about what dying means. One way of helping children understand death and grief is through children’s films like Coco. Movies provide a visual medium to make it easier for children to identify with the characters and their situations.
