Today, I watched the movie Inside Out, a movie about Riley’s emotions inside her. Joy,
sadness, anger, fear, and disgust are among the emotions portrayed in this movie. I'm going to
contrast two movie characters: Joy and Sadness. Joy is always trying to make Riley happy, and
she tries to keep things positive and avoid thinking about the bad aspects of any event. The
majority of the time, joy would be at the upper right corner of the mood metre. Everything is
bright, vibrant, motivated, and optimistic in the upper right corner. Although joy is usually
joyful, she can experience other feelings from time to time. Next, sadness isn't attempting to
make Riley sad, but she does bring out the unpleasant aspects of a scenario. She also utilises
empathy to make people feel better and connects with their problems rather than attempting to
make them seem better. Sadness would be at the bottom right corner of the mood metre, dismal,
depressed, and exhausted.
From this movie, When Riley went through all of those feelings in this movie, I went
through them as well, and watching it on the screen helped me control my emotions and realise
that it's okay to be sad and cry in order to move on. Second, we all have different personality
traits that make us who we are, which are portrayed in the film; for example, Riley had
friendship when she was 11 and as she grew older, she earned other personality traits. As we
become older, we all change. I used to be quite open with others when I was younger, but as I
grew older, I lost interest in meeting new people, with the exception of a close friend. Our
personalities are shaped by our experiences. The movie shows how various personalities are
handled by personifying the five emotions.
Inside Out encourages us to embrace our complete selves, to allow ourselves permission
to not be "okay," and to offer others the space they need to work through their own awakenings.
It's not about avoiding unpleasant sensations; rather, it's about facing them head on in order to be
honest with ourselves and evolve.
