![]() ![]() Carl’s lovely little fellow, Russell, will surely remind you of Dante who supported Miguel against all odds. However, the actual story begins after Ellie dies and Carl decides to accomplish her dream of viewing Paradise Falls. Just a 5-minute romance of Carl and Ellie has the power of making anyone teary-eyed, something that most films fail to do in hours. Directed by Pete Doctor, ‘Up’ tickles the power of imagination in kids with its incredible color-filled narrative. When it comes to the greatest animation movies of all times, ‘Up’ always makes it to the list of top 10. There is no age limit on ambition! While the 12-year-old Miguel is ambitious enough to break all the barriers to be the best musician, the 78-year-old balloon salesman Carl Fredricksen also fulfills his ambition of visiting Paradise Falls.

With music in his genes, Evan finds a rhythm in everything he comes across – wind, the rustling of leaves, or the sound of vehicles. Directed by Kirsten Sheridan, ‘August Rush’ is all about music being a guide to an orphan child’s search for his parents. If music is what establishes an association between 12-year-old Miguel and his dead ancestors, the same is what, eventually, connects 11-year-old Evan Taylor to his parents, the ones he has never known.
