Overview
Inside the mind of 11-year-old Riley Andersen, five emotions run Headquarters: optimistic Joy, gloomy Sadness, fiery Anger, squeamish Disgust, and nervous Fear. When Riley’s family moves from Minnesota to San Francisco, her world turns upside down — and when Joy and Sadness are accidentally swept out of Headquarters, they must journey through Long Term Memory, Imagination Land, and Abstract Thought to get home before Riley loses herself. Along the way they meet Bing Bong, Riley’s long-forgotten imaginary friend, and discover that core memories are not made of happiness alone. Pete Docter’s Pixar masterpiece turns psychology into adventure, arguing with warmth and wit that sadness is not the enemy of joy but its necessary partner. Funny, inventive, and deeply moving, Inside Out is a rare family film that speaks honestly to children and adults about growing up.

Why Watch Inside Out?
Inside Out won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature, and it remains one of Pixar’s most original achievements: a buddy adventure set inside a child’s mind that doubles as a surprisingly profound meditation on emotion. Amy Poehler and Phyllis Smith are superb as Joy and Sadness, the world-building is endlessly inventive, and the ending — which finally lets sadness have its say — is one of the most cathartic moments in modern animation.
