Up

The first ten minutes of Up depicting the entire life of Carl and Ellie Fredricksen are widely considered the most devastating sequence in animation history. Widower Carl at 78 attaches thousands of balloons to his house and lifts off for South America — accidentally bringing along eight-year-old Wilderness Explorer Russell who was on his porch. What follows is a funny warm and ultimately transcendent adventure about grief friendship and the unexpected joys that come when we finally stop trying to preserve the past.
