tags: #movies [Inside Out](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2096673/) is a Pixar film that explores how emotion and memory intertwine, how memories are formed, and how all of this informs who we are and who we become. I watched it for the first time when I was in college, in a particularly raw and formative moment of my life. The way it depicted Sadness encouraged me to let go all kinds of baggage and limiting thoughts about being sad and whether I "qualified" to be sad. --- Created: 2024-04-04 Last Modified: 2024-04-04
