So fat, it is casita who decides the type of gift for each person.

The going theory is that the Casita was the soul of Pedro, Abuela's lover. The hints to this are: When they first met, they waved to each other, and when the Casita was first built, it waved at Abuela and she waved back. There was a butterfly when they met, and the house is full of imagery of butterflies (the walls, the vision, the end too). The Casita has a personality, and it's shown to be very playful and mischievous, just like Pedro was. The magic was brought about just as Pedro died. The magic/Casita uses all of its powers to protect the family and the community, keeping them safe, just as was Pedro's last wish.

If anyone is interested in the Colombia history influences, Encanto takes place in Columbia in the 1950s and Abuela says that the candle was given to her 50 years earlier so she got it at the turn of the 20th century. During the early 1900s a civil war was taking place in Columbia called The Thousand Days’ War (1899-1902) there was 100,000 to 150,000 fatalities during this conflict about 2.5 percent of the nation's population at that time, the conflict was the deadliest and most destructive war in the history of Colombia. I think it’s important to remember that the trauma Abuela experienced is not made up but a very real thing that happened to many real life Columbia’s.

I love that you actually noticed that Dolores might've spilled the beans about Mirabel being in Bruno's Vision on purpose, instead of her just not being able to keep a secret because of her gift like many people think. I mean, she kept the secret of Bruno living in the walls of the house for 10 years straight. There is no way that she didn't talk about the vision on purpose to try to ruin the proposal. Thankfully, it all worked out for everyone!

[@Lokear]

Yeah, I don't know why she didn't tell anyone that Bruno's still there, but she cracked so easily about the prophecy. This is the only explanation.

[@HetaClaude]

i don't believe that she'd do it to intentionally ruin the proposal (like regardless of how she feels about the guy she likes being bethrothed to her cousin) but with a concern for the state of the casita and the encanto. she probably thinks it shouldn't be a secret which is why she told camilo but spilled it when the dinner was already going sideways.

[@fightingfaerie]

Technically she mentions Bruno several times, "I can still hear him." But the family ignored it, "We don't talk about Bruno" so she stops trying to tell them and maybe thinks its in her head. Hence the end "I knew he never left!"

[@marsisbae]

i really don't think she was trying to ruin the proposal. the difference between mirabel's secret and bruno's secret is that the house breaking is urgent and affects everyone, so they needed to know. with bruno, he was not ready to return to the house and thought everyone would be better off without knowing he was still there. i personally dont think dolores would choose to ruin the proposal as she hadn't acted in jealousy to isabel previously and seemed resigned to the fact that mariano would be with her instead

[@VillianousKitty]

Except she constantly mentions she can hear him, during her but in the song We Don't Talk About Bruno she specifically says she can still hear him 😅 and talks about the rats in the walls, just no one listened to her!

Dammit Disney...was so close to not cry but that song about Pedro and Abuela just shreds my heart....I got 2 theory about the candle : 1. It's actually the soul of Pedro in the candle ( the butterfly on it being a dead give away) finally giving a safe home to his family and feeling hurt about how Abuela is treating her family, forgetting the sacrifice and who the miracle is for. 2. The house is Pedro and the candle is his sacrifice...which is why it's fading, because Abuela forgot who the miracle was for...

[@DAMIENDMILLS]

I finally understood the symbolism. The encanto is a fantasy world for thousands of Columbians who were forced to leave their home. The house itself is a representation of the family dynamic. As the arguments between family members kept getting worse, the house was literally breaking. They lived in a "broken home". Abuela's magic is to be a light to lead people away from danger. Bruno can see the future to avoid any threats. Pepa controlled the weather so it's always perfect outside. Julieta can heal people so illnesses won't kill anyone. Dolores can hear anything miles away, in case anyone invades. Camilo can look like anyone because he doesn't know who he is yet. Plus it can be useful to infiltrate and spy on anyone who wishes to hurt them. Antonio can understand animals like tigers, so they don't get eaten by them. Luisa is strong to protect everyone. Isabela can grow plants to better hide the village from the outside, especially if she uses poisonous plants. And Mirabel's power this whole time was the ability to keep the family together.

[@maberuesta1274]

*Colombian's

[@airoblaster]

I think everyone overlooks the abuela's real power.. of belittling Mirabel

[@neenyinspain]

To expand on this... The three triplets had gifts about time.. Pepa in the here and now with the weather. Julieta the past - to cure what has already happened. Bruno, the future. The three cousins have the senses... Hearing (Dolores), 'sight' for the shapeshifter (appearance) and speech, talking to the animals (Antonio). The three sisters have beauty, brawn and brain.

[@jonunya1163]

I think Mirabelle is meant to take over as keeper of the magic. The house only actively communicates with Alma and Mirabelle. The cracks start at Mirabella's feet when she sings about wanting powers. And the magic breaks when Mirabelle and Alma fight. Its repaired after they make up and work as a group to rebuild without their powers.

It is really interesting the approach they took with Abuela's recounting of how their "miracle" happened. The way she describes it to Maribel at the beginning of the movie gets truly the "Disney" makeover - the background is blacked out ( where the city is getting attacked behind them ), the features are softened and the expressions are much less realistic and "blank" in a way especially considering Pedro was _lost_ still Abuela's grievance was not shown too much and it went directly to the uplifting "miracle" to get Mirabel even more excited by the fairy-tale like background of their family. The flashbacks are much more heart breaking in comparison, because we get a glimpse into their brief history and the animation is sharper, more realistic and it hints at the actual violence in the background without shying away from raw emotions in the expressions and showing the sadness of separation on Pedro's face ( completely missing the first time ). To me that's the movie way of showing Abuela wants the family to focus on a hero-like origin for themselves, and unconsciously portrays her own husband's sacrifice unrealistically, almost as it required no effort because that's just what "gifted" people are supposed to do, as well as her shifting immediately into matriarch mode the first time with not many tears to spare, while the flashbacks show her desperation and the grief once she's alone with three children in an empty house. Also - I am inclined to believe that the miracle was actually Abuela's own gift ( not Pedro's ) and the embodiment of wanting to protect her family at all costs - which is then passed onto Mirabel.

[@isisbeatriz9110]

I understand why people would hate on Abuela, she did create really high expectations for everyone in the family but I highly doubt that she did it because she's "evil". People are underestimating the amount of trauma Abuela went through, she was forced to flee from her home, the love of her life got killed right in front of her, she was left all alone and homeless with three children to raise, then she was gifted with a miracle: a home. It makes perfect sense to me why she was so scared to lose it, she never wanted to go back to being homeless and alone again so she did everything she could to make sure everyone was keeping the miracle alive

[@isabellagonzalez5695]

I completely agree. Like yes, she was being super strict and unfair, but that is because she let fear dictate her actions. I don’t think she was evil at all, just scared and blind to the needs of her family because she was trying so hard to keep them safe

Mirabel may not have a gift per say, but she does have the power to make the candle go out. If you pay attention you'll see almost every time the magic fades and the house cracks it's when the family bond suffers. Whenever Mirabel feels upset and/or excluded the house cracks. When she reconciles with Isabela the candle shines but it dies when she snaps at the grandma. Maybe Mirabel is a manifestation of the candle itself so her role is now the glue that holds the family together. Maybe the grandma had this power but it was passed to Mirabel.

I think Mirabel's gift is not like a magical one, but it's the family itself.

I have always believed that the moment Mirabel touched the doorknob at age 5, that the power and magic of the candle and house transferred from the grandmother to Mirabel. Mirabet became the new matriarch; she was going to be the one who would continue the family after her grandmother passed on. (And she didn't get "a room" because the whole house was her "room".) The sequences where the house is crumbling are each moments in time where Mirabel is experiencing extreme emotions and coming apart emotionally... and when she falls apart the home/candle does likewise, because they are one.

And he told Dolores that Mariano would be out of reach and betrothed to another but not that he would actually marry someone else or that he's always be out of her reach. In any case I know Mariano can be a bit dumb but he also seems like a genuinely nice guy. I also think the thing to do with the dinner would be the old 'I have a headache' line and stay in your room trying to figure out the problem - though I guess it'd be a little suspicious if both Dolores and Miracle had a headache, unless Dolores said it and Miracle said she'd go and check if she needed anything.

[@milo_thatch_incarnate]

I think what's different about this Disney movie is that it starts out where most Disney movies END. In the past, the whole _point_ of the Disney movie would BE Mirabel "discovering" that she doesn't need a gift to be special. But in this movie, she starts out already knowing that. So, what could be wrong? Well, it turns out the _positivity_ is wrong. Everything is cracking, and because everyone in the family knows they have to be positive, helpful, serving, and... _perfect,_ no one addresses the generational trauma. That's _SO much deeper_ than most of the messages of Disney's recent movies. They've all been obvious from the first ten minutes. Not this one. My family is healthy now, thank God, but for most of my childhood and teens, we were very much a "perfect on the outside" family, and we all felt the pressure of maintaining that image. My older sister couldn't handle it, so she rebelled and left, and when that was swept under the rug, *_*I*_* was swept into the position of the oldest sister. "Surface Pressure" and the plight of the two oldest daughters are so relatable to me: feeling like I had to hold everyone together by being the perfect and good and strong and Right daughter my parents needed. MAN, this movie got me. AND DISNEY GOT THEIR MAGIC BACK. I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.

My mom and I could relate to Bruno’s and Maribel’s treatment. Our family always puts us second and we feel like failures of the family even if we aren’t. A lot of this film hit home.

First it was Abuela’s responsibility, who wasn’t born with powers but was chosen to hold the miracle for her family until a new leader is born to take over which is Mirabel. However, Mirabel DOES in fact have a power. Not only does she have a strong connection to the house where she was born in, BUT she gifted Antonio a cheetah plush saying “because I know you’re an animal guy”, and now his gift is speaking and understanding animals. Meaning, Mirabel is the candle incarnate who can gift her family members powers.

I'm from Colombia and I really could feel the grandma's flashback scene, because our family had to leave home due to violence too 😢. I know many colombians also would feel this way. I enjoyed the movie but tbh something is missing, I feel it incomplete.

[@andresalvites5587]

I felt something similar, I enjoyed the movie but still there was something else there that didn't make me love it completly

[@writingcooper7900]

I think that missing piece is the lack of a character arc for Mirabel. The family all gets their gifts back and realize how important she is, but Mirabel herself didn’t appear to learn anything or change at all. Story wise her position is different, being appreciated by her family and possibly being Abuela’s successor (though the movie is really ambiguous about that) but character wise she’s completely flat, which result in a lack of catharsis with the ending. I like this movie a lot, but I do think that’s why it feels incomplete. No arc for the protagonist.

[@alfasvirtuosos1981]

@@writingcooper7900 I don't think so, just the fact that she confront abuela in the end just show how much she grows, she was able to understand the problem and tell that she was not the issue but rather how the family treat each other

[@SilentSympathy]

@@writingcooper7900 Mirabel had no reason to grow other than to get over whatever insecurity her family had instilled in her. She was already a full fledged character and she had accepted the fact that she had no gift. Literally all she wanted was to be accepted as she was by her family. Her mother and father had no problem doing that, but everyone else were literally breaking their backs to appease Abuela Alma. So anything that Alma didn't deem perfect was rebuffed. Her whole purpose was to serve as a parallel to Abuela (Literally. Mirabel's room is directly across the casita from Alma's). Two family members with no gifts, one the found of the home and the other embraced that home to the point where it was treated like an extension of the family.

[@Amused_Comfort_Inc]

They used 3 different ancient story archetypes, and tried to wrap 3 motifs into one leitmotif. Mirabel is basically Po from Kung fu panda, she's Lilo and Stitch, and she's Pinocchio. Story wise. •There is no special ingredient •Family's can be broken but still good •And sometimes you have to rescue your elders(usually it's a father) from the underworld (belly of the beast) The music scoring with the visuals takes away from the emotional aspect, except for abuelo Pedro's scene.

It's not her emotions that's making the cracks. It's when the family's bond is hurt that it breaks. And when abuela and mirabel the two most important people in the family, when their bond broke so did the candle. That's why the cracks fixes itself and the could come back. Cause they can always fix their relationship

[@chaseburch1351]

I love Encanto and I have a lot to say so here goes. There is a theory that Abuello became the Casita (they both do the little wave, there are butterflies everywhere which symbolizes his spirit and when Abella and Abuello met, and Casita and Abuello both do everything they can to help and protect the family). Also I believe that Mirabel is the next Keeper of the Candle (Abuela's role). She is the glue that keeps her family together. And she didn't get a door 1) because that position was currently being filled and 2) because she needed to embrace everyone in her family, including herself. Her role is to strengthen and help the family grow, something Abuela thought she was doing, but lost sight of the real reason for the miracle. Abuela has been mourning her husband for 50 years (throughout the movie she wears a black shawl to symbolize this) but after the scene with Mirabel she no longer wears it. I also love that the first thing Abuela does after opening up to Mirabel is hug Bruno symbolizing her embracing the future.

[@spikeluv84]

Mirabel is basically the embodiment of hope for the family, just like her Abuelo was when he sacrificed himself. There is a theory that Casita contains his soul. Also, that he was were their magic powers came from. Before he died, he kisses his children and Alma prays for a miracle. He sacrificed himself, and the magic showed up. If you watch again, you'll see that Abuela Alma and Mirabel are the only ones that talk to Casita. Also, Dolores knows that Bruno never left. When she does her solo, she constantly moves Mirabel around to keep her from noticing Bruno walking in the background on the landing. When she sings "Do you understand?" and it does a close-up, Bruno is dancing between them. Also, she literally says "I can hear him now". She always talks about him in the present tense.

It's pretty much shown that the miracle happened through the grand dad's sacrifice, and people theorize the house is alive because his spirit lives in it. It's a nice theory, but I also like the concept that it's just a magical house that's it's own entity. And like you said, Isabela's fiancee resembles the grand dad, and people have theorized that's why Abuela wanted Isabela and him to marry (because they remind her of herself and Pedro when she was younger.) And no, Dolores didn't do anything bad on purpose. She has always supported Isabela regardless of her feelings for Mariano. She was just worried about her family's fate.

So if my understanding. The reason why Mirabel didn't have the room. But she become the new foundation of the family. Maybe, she will have Abuella's room as she will become the new head?

[@friedsyshi]

what i got out of it was that Mirabel is the magic itself. Abuela can command Casita, but Mirabel converses directly with it, and whenever something bad was happening within Mirabel, something happened to Casita. it’s as if her feelings and state of mind directly affected Casita.

[@matityaloran9157]

18:53, they say “we don’t talk about Bruno” but she just talked about Bruno and fun fact Bruno is one of the most talked about parts of the movie

22:20, fun fact in the myth she’s referencing Hercules actually was “like I don’t want to fight Cerberus” after Eurystheus told him to bring Cerberus back from the Underworld so Hercules, who didn’t want to fight Cerberus, went to Hades, explained the situation, and asked him to let him borrow Cerberus and Hades said yes on the condition that he not hurt Cerberus and Hercules agreed to it.

[@yana_riih]

Most ppl misunderstood what isabela said "I have been perfect my whole entire life" doesn't mean "oh poor me I'm so perfect 🙄" it's like that pressure that everyone expects you to be something that you're not which alot of older siblings feel..its just sad that she never really got to explore her true self cuz since the moment she opened her eyes she's trained to not be herself which is hard and disorienting.

I love the Casita so much. Even when it was literally dying and falling apart, it did everything it could to protect the family, down to its final “breath” with Mirabel.

[@agenttheater5]

Right now I'm guessing that because Abuela had three children to raise on her own and she never went back to the river either because she never felt ready to do so or because she didn't have time to do so she wasn't able to properly mourn Pedro. And maybe she even started focusing on the family being 'perfect' and focused on the miracle that took place afterwards so that she wouldn't have time to focus on his actually being killed or on the fact that she still misses him and would've wanted to live a regular life with him and their children even with no gifts, no miracles and no magic. And because she hasn't been able to face that memory properly and hasn't been able to mourn him properly she hasn't been able to move on with the next stage of her life properly.

[@annebethkuijs9442]

Great theory :) my interpretation is that because of the miracle and inpenetrable high mountains Abuela couldn't go back to the river even if she wanted too. And now after the mountain was split/cracked she finally could.

[@TheOnlyOne516]

A lot of people didn't realize this, but Mirabel didn't actually give a gift because she was destined to be the guardian of the miracle/leader of the house after the grandmother passed away

[@dominickdobbins8303]

One thing i love about Luisa's song, toward the beginning you physically see her getting Mirabel out of these imaginary scenarios but as the song goes on it starts to cut before you actually see what happens. Like when Luisa is hanging on the cliff and they break and fall, it cuts and you see a giant landslide. Or the ship hitting the iceberg, the last thing you see is Luisa jumping at the ice and then next you see them coming to land on a chunk of ice. Everything is crumbling as she's trying to protect her sister and it just keeps slipping more and more as it goes.

Maribel's power is the actually the encanto it self, like the grandma, she is responsible to maintain the family together that makes sure everyone is ok, you can see that everyones was unhappy, and that was making the encanto weak, so Mirabel was in the vision to make the encanto stronger, you could see that she can easily understand everyone's perspective even Isabella, while the grandma keep everyone's on a tight leash

Pedro gave the magic to her family. Abuella asked Pedro to help her. He send Mirabel to help the family. Mirabel had Pedro's magic herself- all the house. That's why she didn't had a door inside the house, because her door was the front door of the house, the house is her magic.

Even though the movie doesn't exactly have a villain the grandmother actually caused a lot of the conflict of the movie. She was putting so much pressure on everyone to be perfect. And an example of this happened even before mirabel's problem. Anytime her son Bruno tried to warn everyone when something was wrong everyone blamed him for what happened. He just trying to help everyone. And the grandmother didn't even notice the pressures she was putting on her family that it hurt not only mirabel but everyone else instead of listening. A lot of people say mirabel is unbelievable and unrelatable character. But in reality she is totally relatable. She is someone who has remarkable talented family and is just trying to help her family and prove herself with siblings, cousins, an aunt, uncle, and mom who are magically talented. And why is mirabel's grandmother hard on her when the grandmother has no powers? That makes no sense.

[@gabrielleduplessis7388]

We don’t talk about Bruno is one of the best songs in a musical film. This whole film felt like it could have been on broadway. It was set up as a stage and the story and music followed. I liked the intricacy of the different textures and movements of the clothes and objects. The colors were vibrant and each palette felt like a mix of Coco and Moana. The most amazing part is how Lin-Manuel was able to compose and write this song. He gave each character their own style of music and rhythm that represented their individual personalities. You could recognize a character just by their verse which doesn’t happen in many musicals. My favorite was Camillo’s part because it represented his mischievous behavior as well as capturing the eeriness that the family believes Bruno has. It was also fun and different. The camera angles captured the chaos, humor, confusion, and eeriness of the song.

I guess I’ll be the one to point this out At 14:17 - 14:19 , you could see Dolores covering her ears from everything being too loud for her. That makes me think that her room isn’t completely soundproof, but it’s very quiet with little to no loud items to give her ears a break from her gift. It also makes me feel really bad for her that in “we don’t talk about Bruno”, her part was in whispering because whispering to her sounds like regular talking, so when she talks regularly to the others, it probably sounds like shouting to her, so if we think reality-wise, like if it was real, she would probably have severe tinnitus due to her constantly hearing everything in a loud speaking level.
