Movie Review: 'Elio' a shooting star in the Pixar galaxy

Elio

This image shows a scene from Disney and Pixar’s movie “Elio."

The new Pixar animated film “Elio� takes up a question famously posed by astrophysicist Carl Sagan: “are we alone?� It’s in reference to the search for extraterrestrial life, but the idea, according to Sagan, is “the deepest of human concerns.� It’s a question both existential and intimate; galactic and earthbound. It dictates our day-to-day experience and our wildest dreams, motivating our every action and reaction.

For our hero, Elio (Yonas Kibreab), the worry that he might be entirely alone on Earth is what spurs his desire to look for community elsewhere � in the stars.
