Oscar 2018 : Best Animated Feature Film : 'Coco'
March 06th, 2018
Disney Pixar's "Coco" today won the Best Animated Feature Film Oscar.
The film was competing with 'Loving Vincent', 'The Boss Baby', 'Ferdinand', and 'The Breadwinner'.
"Coco" tells the story of an aspiring musician (Miguel) who has to face his family's prejudices against music. On the Day of the Dead, he ventures into the Land of the Dead and encounters his ancestor, a legendary singer.
The film took six years to produce, with members of the crew travelling to Mexico, as part of their research, to gain an authentic sense of the country's music and culture.
Coco won the awards for best animated movie at the Golden Globes, Baftas, New York Film Critics Circle and Producers Guild, as well as 11 of the animation-specialist Annie awards (including best animated feature). The film has proved a massive hit with audiences and critics, bringing in more than $730m worldwide, making it the second-highest-grossing animated feature of 2017, after Despicable Me 3.
