This episode of Pic.Think: FILM focuses on Disney Pixar's critically acclaimed family film "Inside Out" with Sy, Raveen & Gladys. In part 1 (Adult Emotions), we begin by considering the accuracy of Google's synopsis of the film. We follow this up by considering the film's personified emotions - Joy, Sadness, Fear, Anger & Disgust - and deliberate which emotions would take centre stage in our minds if we were the protagonist of this story. From the list of emotions personified, both old and new, we then decide which emotion would be de facto leader of our own minds as the emotion of Joy is in Riley's mind. In part 2(Plutchick's Wheel of Emotions), we continue the discussion in a similar vein by considering Riley's personality islands - Hockey, Goofball, Friendship, Honesty & Family - and we decide what islands would constitute our own personalities. After this, we look at one of the psychological conceptions that inspired this film: Robert Plutchick's "wheel of emotions". Following this, we examine one of the central themes behind the narrative of this film: the transition from childhood to adulthood (i.e. growing up). In part 3 (Emotional Acceptance), the discussion concludes by considering the filmmakers' implicit value, appreciation and acceptance of various emotions, despite the history of social stigma towards emotions.
