I cried 4 times in this movie -Riley crying at school -Joy crying -Bing Bong's death -Riley crying with her parents

This film is a crash course in emotional intelligence.

Pixar films are NOT kids films; they’re animated films that are appropriate for kids. They’re engaging on SO many levels.

You guys missed something. One of the things that makes this movie so brilliant is one line that most people miss. When Riley's mom tells her that they need to "put on a happy face" for her dad. That is the seed that causes everything that comes after. What makes this such an important moment is that it's so incredibly accurate to life. One innocuous, seemingly innocent, comment can totally screw a kid up. From this moment on, Riley feels like she's not allowed to be anything but happy. And that's when Joy starts trying to stifle her fellow feelings. Kids take everything to heart and they did an amazing job of showing that. I feel like it's one of the most important moments in the movie and I'm bummed I didn't get to hear you guys talk about it.

“We’re crying but the crew is ugly crying” that’s me. Im crew.

"And I need therapy." "So, so much." *Mood*

Noooooo! Alan’s daughter saying “her memories are yellow and blue now” 😢😭 Now *I’M* ugly crying… art giving children the vocabulary and tools to express themselves ALWAYS gets me. ❤

These two represent what I love the most about humanity. How they 'feel' the movie, how they talk so beautifully about it, how they cry, how they show vulnerability, sensitivity, and awareness...Thank you so much. As a hypersensitive person, I really needed that.

"I'm a therapist, and I love movies." "I make movies, and I need therapy." Is this what the yinyang is supposed to represent?

I just realised now that joy has blue hair, Sadness's color, she's the only in one among the other emotions to have a hair color not matching her own. A clever visual clue to show that the ending is also Joy accepting that part of herself will always come from sadness.

Bing Bong was a good way to show how childhood memories are gone. He did the right thing, knowing that Joy is more important than an imaginary friend..

You know a movie maker has talent when the "death" of an imaginary friend makes you cry. RIP Bing Bong. Your passing was a true showing of how parts of our childhood die as we mature.

it’s actually quite clever how easily joyful memories turn to sad ones when touched by sadness, because that’s the nature of memories. you can be happy that you have these memories, but it can easily turn to sadness when you realise that it’s not like that anymore and things have changed as you grow up.

"All my happy memories of her are colored in blue" and now I'M ugly crying.

"Trying harder isn't the issue." FINALLY! Someone who gets it! We try so hard to get out of this pit we're in but nothing works and it's exhausting...

no matter how many times i hear the line "take her to the moon for me, okay?" or watch the scene with Riley crying and hugging her parents near the end, those two parts always make me almost cry...

This whole video of 2 grown a$$ men not being afraid to show emotions and vulnerability ON CAMERA is so pure. I love it.

"Now we are crying, but our crew is doing the ugly crying over there" I didn't know my name was Crew...

I love that Fear mentioned that Riley didn't die that day, because that's his purpose, to make her not die. At the same time, Fear sort of doesn't fit, since he's not actually an emotion. He's an instinct.

Hanni recommended this video. She used to tell fans it's okay to feel tired and sad sometimes insteading of just telling to be happy, which i really love her for that. She seems so mature and takes care of her mental health. ❤

“I’m a therapist and like films” “I’m a film maker and need therapy” IM DYINGGGGGGG 😂😂

Nobody: KZfaq: do you want to feel emotions at 3 in the morning half a year after the release of this video?

This video is 3 years old. I remember watching this video only 8 months after my dad died. And I couldn’t finish the video. But rewatching this, when Jonathan mentioned his mother and the memories around them, I just immediately broke down in tears for the first time in months, never in my life did I think two dudes watching a cartoon movie would make me ugly cry loud enough that my mother had to ask if I was okay

My sibling is on the autism spectrum and often really struggles to identify and express their emotions. This movie has been a huge help in our communication. It helped my sibling connect with the idea that everyone has emotions inside them, and what those emotions are. Now when they get upset, I'll ask them "what emotion is inside?" And they can tell me.

""You just need to try harder" Trying isn't the issue" oh my god how to send this to my mom without sending it to her

"we're crying but the crew right now is ugly crying" ITS OKAY CREW IM WITH YOU

24:48 Honestly you two might have one of the greatest friendships on KZfaq. The way Jonathan just automatically comforted Alan when he was struggling to speak was just incredible, and brought back all my crying from the rest of the video that I was just getting over. You guys are awesome.

I come back to this video sometimes. I’m someone who is poor, about to be homeless, and dealing with depression. Not the same situation as Riley, but it certainly feels reminiscent of the emotions I’m going through. This movie makes me cry because even as a 22 year old now, I FEEL what this movie is expressing, quite literally, right now, despite it being more about loss of childhood. Edit: I wanna give all my love and thanks to the folks giving kind words, every unit of support means the world.

Sometimes depression isnt a feeling of sadness sometimes its the inability to feel anything.

"it's when your control panel is just completely broken" yes. exactly. that's it. that's depression.

Literally just sat here and cried for like 10 minutes. I lost my sister almost 2 years ago now and all of my memories with her are colored in blue as well. That line really hit home.

To all the Hanni/NewJeans fans who are showing up: Welcome! We're so glad you're here! 당신이 여기 있어서 정말 기쁩니다! 이 동영상이 마음에 드셨다면 다른 동영상도 확인해 보세요.

“There is a type of love that is only experienced through sadness. There is a type of joy that is only experienced through grief.” Boy, that hit me hard.

"Sure, I cried when I watched the movie but I won't cry in a 27 minute video about the movie," I thought naïvely

I think a reason for why the Bing Bong scene is so sad is because a lot of people can relate to eventually losing your imaginary friend. Whether it was conscious or you just forgot about them while going through life.

21:00 is kind of like what happned to Ban Heesoo in Ditto. She looked back into her happy memories (with NewJeans) but then she realizes they’re gone. Her memories of them became sadness and the only way to relive their memories is by watching clips of them in the cam corder. She woke up one day and realizes that even though they’re gone, its okay, she’s okay. It’s okay to look back and mourn the loss of a loved one.

I can't get over the fact that joy's hair is blue just like sadness, which symbolizes that joy always comes with sadness.

7:55 "If you've never felt sad then you can't appreciate what joy is." A sub has been earned.

My favorite part of the WHOLE movie is her hugging her mom and dad and crying but having that releasing sigh. That happy and sad sigh. Also look into Home. They have a part where they say "you are sad-mad."

There’s a line in Shakespeare’s Macbeth that really hit me when I first heard it. It’s the scene where Macduff hears that his entire family-wife, children and household servants-have been all been killed by Macbeth and he is openly grieving. Malcolm tells Macduff, “Dispute it like a man,” to which Macduff responds, “I shall do so, but I must also feel it as a man.” It’s such a short but powerful statement. Thank you, gentlemen, for sharing your tears. I’m also crying over here because I also have my own blue and yellow memories I’m feeling. Your series has been a great safe space for me to get some of my emotions out while I work through some difficult things in my life. I’m grateful to have my therapist to help me with this and some of these videos have given me the opportunity to let out tears I wasn’t able to let out before and process the grief I’m currently dealing with. All the best. 💛💙

"My mom is gone, every happy memory I have of her is coloured in blue" Okay. I'm done. That's when I started crying like a baby.

Inside Out is basically “It’s Okay to Cry: The Movie”

"Every happy memory I have of her is colored in blue" oh my dear, dear Jono, thank you, thank you so much for these words. My dad is going to turn 80, he's having severe depression and his life is now balanced between hospitalization and our permanent care, with my mum and sister. He is still this sweet, kindest-of-the-kind man now, but he says and does all these terrible things to himself and now every happy memory I have of him is starting to turn blue... This heals. Thank you.

I'm 24 and I'm afraid to cry in front of people since my parents would say "stop being a baby" or "stop being so sensitive" when I was younger. So, I held my emotions in around people and would most of the time cry myself to sleep. And now, my family would asking me why I'm so emotionless.

Cries over this film when suddenly: *Boss Baby Advertisement* Really? Right in front of my salad?

Something that’s also great about this movie is that Riley’s parents actually hear her, when she tells them she wants to go back they don’t say “well we live here now”, they basically say “You’re not alone in mourning and missing Minnesota, we miss it too, with you”. And that’s such an important validation that gets missed in conversations alot

Seeing these two men unashamedly cry, when our culture tries to push the idea that men shouldn't cry, is so wholesome and such a wonderful thing for them to share. Everyone is sad sometimes, everybody cries and that's okay.

I just realized that throughout this whole story joy has felt every other feeling except for sadness. Especially in this scene 12:10. If you watch the whole scene of getting bing bong out of that place, you can see that joy gets scared of the vacuum, disgusted by the broccoli, and angry at sadness stepping on the wrappers (more like frustrated, but still). She doesn't want to feel sad, but she doesn't care about feeling anything else. She only becomes sad after this when bing bong disappears. It's pretty interesting.

I have 99 problems and this guy fixed at least 73 of them.

"take her to the moon for me" Seven words that always without fail make me cry. "It's ok that it's not ok" 😭

I've watched this 3 years ago after my beloved niece passed away from child cancer. She was 4. I appreciate the explanation you guys did. Everyday was a struggle emotionally and mentally. It's okay to feel sadness for you to experience growth. The movie itself made me cry. Thank you! And thank you Hanni!❤

"Every happy memory I have of her is colored in blue" - that was exactly what I was thinking when I first watched this movie. My father died when I was 16 and at that moment everything turned blue and it's been ever since. It's so amazing how they managed to visualize that so incredibly well. P.S.: Yeah I know I'm not the first one talking about this line, but it hit so hard I just had to. I'm still in tears

"the crew in the back is doing the ugly cry" *que faint sobbing in the background*

me at the beginning: “Why is the comment section crying??” the end: 😭😭😭

Hanni saying this video opened her mind kinda reminds me of when I was just around her age, first time starting to learn about the importance of paying attention to and taking care of our emotions, how to do it, and a whole bunch of other psychological and philosophical stuff. It's one of the things that make me feel good about growing up since it allows me to get a better view of life. I don't usually watch movie reaction videos but I see you also react to several other movies I have watched before. Definitely check them out tonight to see if I missed anything :) Thank you for the informative analysis and thanks Hanni Pham for sharing this video to the people she cares about

This is probably one of the best animated movies EVER made. I don’t think you could find a person who DIDN’T cry when watching this

I love when he says "This is so Phyllis from The Office" because that's literally the voice actor for Sadness!!!

"Im a licensed therapist and I love movies" "Im a filmmaker and i need therapy" And im a highschool student whos currently procrastinating on homework and is eating potato chips

I don’t think I’ve ever broken from a video before, but this was the first time for me. I lost my younger sister in late 2020, like a week before thanksgiving, and the realization that all of my memories, all 28 years of them, are now yellow and blue. I openly weeped in my bed for the first time in a very long time. I wish I could have saved her one more time

What I love about this movie is it shows us the inside of Riley's mom's head, and the mom's head has sadness "in charge" To me it is kind of giving us a hint. And it shows that as a child we are all happiness and joy and that when we grow into women we start to learn compassion and that it's okay to have emotions and let sadness out too. ❤

"I could not ask where the bathroom was... in neuroscience." This is oddly the most relatable statement of 2020.

As Ron said to Harry, "You are going to suffer but you will be happy about it"

I also like that Anger was the one who came up with Riley running away, and Sadness was the reason Riley decided not to. Because Anger is basically Sadness that wasn't felt, and decided to MAKE itself heard. Just gotta feel your feelings, then you can have the willpower to get out of those temporary feelings

watching this movie again as a sixteen year old hits so much harder. I'm out here balling my eyes out over this. I was diagnosed with depression when i was 12/14, and this movie really just made me reflect on all of that stuff. Thank you for reminding me of this masterpiece of a movie!

My cousin used to force herself to smile, until she saw this movie. After she saw it, she broke down to her mom and confessed she had been feeling sad since her dad died. She just wanted to be the brave one, for her mom and little brother. Don't worry guys. She's doing much MUCH better now. Edit:She found this video and was mad at me for making the comment but says she doesn't care if I send her every kind reply.

Something that just clicked for me was that the depression isn't about Sadness or Joy - it's the absence of sadness.

One of things I love most of my husband is that he cries during movies. Not every movie, but everyone has that thing that “hits” right. I’ve told some other ladies before, and have gotten some very negative responses. Whatever. I love that about him, and he’s all mine!

I don't often cry at movies. In fact, I was once almost the only person in a whole cinema of people not crying. This movie made me bawl my eyes out, and I'm getting all teary again just watching this break-down. I think this is one of Pixar's best, and that's really saying something. Just masterful storytelling.

"Positivity is a wonderful thing, as long as it's real." That hit me like a truck...

As a woman who grew up with an absent father, and seeing my mom in unhealthy and abusive relationships with men, you have no idea how healing it is to see two grown men be able to talk about feelings so naturally and tearing up over family and not hiding it, but just being human. Thank you! 🙌

Thanks to Newjeans Hanni I discover this video and I totally lovin it. Actually, I lost my cat for a week now. I always trying to be ok, like I tell my familiy and my friends that I'm okay. I'm holding my cry and always say that I'm okay so everyone won't worried about me. I want to be okay because I've been busy with collage projects, and I don't think this is the right time to be sad. And at this point when I can't feel anything, I can't find joy in my life, even doing something I like didn't help anymore, I feel like there is something wrong with me. Then today, my favorite singer Hanni from Newjeans recomend this video, I just curious and watching it before I sleep. And this is just perfect for me, this video helps me. I'm trying to understand my feelings. I got slapped when they say "when it's okay but it's not okay". I always say that I'm okay, but the truth is I'm not okay. I feel sad because I lost my cat, my cat isn't only cat for me, it means the world and I depends a lot to my cat. So right now I'm crying hard and think that's okay to cry, it's okay to feel sad, there is no the right time to feel sad. I just want to thank you guys for making this video, and I want to thank Hanni for recommend this video to me. Just, thankyou. I feel better now🤍

I remember not wanting to see this movie because it just didn't seem like a compelling film. But, I eventually watched it - it was a masterpiece. How it personified emotions was so brilliant, yet simple - that even I could understand it.

Toxic positivity is no joke. I'm more a realist but I had a coworker who was a preacher for positivity and optimism and one day he got frustrated by something and snapped and turned violent. Not allowing yourself to accept the full range of human emotions led to him bottling up his anger until his mind just broke and he lost control of his actions. It was honestly one of the most terrifying things I've ever seen and I am thankful when I think back that he didn't hurt anyone during his fit.

I like that the therapist didn't want to call it a "kids film."

I love that you guys talked about this movie. I am currently in a counseling skills and techniques class and one of my professors showed us the clip of sadness comforting the imaginary friend, and just how impactful and important sadness was for him. The reason we watched the clip was to address toxic positivity and really how we need to avoid that in our therapeutic alliance with our clients.

Iˋm a trauma therapist and I sometimes suggest to my clients that they watch Inside Out. That helps them get out of that stuck place of either/or and move into allowing all emotions and become whole. Thank you Pixar! And thank you guys for showing it clearly.

I like that all the characters are completely one colour. Anger is completely red, disgust is completely green but joy has blue hair implying that sadness is a fundamental part of happiness

This movie helped me cause now everytime I get angry I imagine the tiny red block screaming and I start laughing instead lmao

When I was 15, I moved to another state 1200 miles away from home. It was (and still is) very hard, and I felt just like Riley. Even at 32, the scene where Riley finally breaks down just breaks my heart. This is my first time watching you guys and I'm hooked. Thank you for doing such a great job unpacking this!

The part I cried 19:48 It made me remember how I've been afraid to let sadness manifest.😢😢😢

It always hits me hard when they show that the mother is run by Sadness and the father is run by Anger, yet it's still a happy family. It shows how multi-faceted emotions really are. Sadness doesn't always mean upset, it also means compassion, empathy, understanding. Just like anger isn't always rage, it can be passion, determination, confidence. Goes for the other ones too, Fear can be cautious or strategic, and Disgust is also pride, standards, and morals. You don't need to be happy all the time in order to be whole. Your emotions don't define YOU, it's your perspective that defines your emotions.

I also noticed the difference between the parents brains and Riley’s. The parents/adults all have seats and work on the control panel together with one main focus (dad has anger, mom has sadness) but Riley through most of the movie only has one emotion controlling the panel. Towards the end they begin to share the panel; which could be representative of Riley beginning to understand her emotions better.

Something I love about cinema therapy, is that it's just a place you can go and feel genuine emotions about things you've experienced in life and it's just valid. I think we need more of that these days.

gosh, three full adult men cried like a babies (me included). love this movie, and you guys are great, thank you so much for such a great show.

I always cry multiple times during Inside Out but when the Therapist talked about the memories about his mother being blue because she's dead. Damn, TEARS I tell you.

“I will help you through your tears and then i will charge you for it.” LMAOOOOOO

This is one of my favorite Pixar movies and being someone that struggles with severe clinical depression and "numbness" for the last 10ish years, it's one that makes me cry the most and hardest when I watch it. I connected unbelievably strongly with what Jonathan said at 21:40 about his mom-I've never been able to put those feelings into words, and I think Jonathan hit the nail on the head. My dad died almost 9 years ago when I was in high school due to cancer. I've felt incredibly lost throughout my twenties with passions and hobbies fading away and burning out with my career (animation and filmmaking) which was once one of my passions. My dad was my greatest supporter with every one of my hobbies, and the last few years of therapy have had large spontaneous spurts of grief during random sessions. I know it's because I, and my family, have felt lost ever since we lost him. A lot of my old interests make me sad because my dad is no longer there to support me through them, and my once-happy memories of all of them have turned blue and joyless. I know that that's ok, and that it's ok to feel those sad emotions and grief, but man, I'm sitting here WFH while watching this and absolutely just started weeping for a few minutes when Jonathan said that..

Didn't watch this movie just saw a post on reddit about Hanni's Phoning and recommending this show. And now here I am at 8 AM just woke up and now im crying buckets.

"I'm going to help you through your crying and then charge you for it." *therapist moment*

Something about grown men crying about the loss of childhood is weirdly comforting

I know this is an old video, but I think you'd be happy to know that early childhood teachers often use the inside out emotions to help young children understand and express what they are feeling. That movie was truly groundbreaking:

One of my core memories is of my boyfriend and I. On our first date, I had some complications which caused pain and I started crying really hard. He just held me and reassured me that I'll be okay. He also admitted to be worried about me.

Jesus Christ, the therapist talking about how the memories of his deceased mother are now colored in blue almost made _me_ cry.

The first time I cried during that movie was when the mom said, “You’re our happy girl.” That hit way too hard for me.

I cried the hardest I have in, literally years, about my dead father and dissolved family

Everything about this was so meaningful; your friendship, your willingness to cry on camera, to discuss your own experiences and those of your families. For me, Jonathan's observation about all of the memories of his mother being blue and yellow; I haven't lost my mum, but we're incredibly close and her health is dwindling, so I worry constantly about her wellbeing and how I'll cope when she's gone. It gave me a little bit of comfort to hear that interpretation of those memories, and how they'll be both happy and sad, and that's okay. It means a lot. You guys were crying and I'm sat here crying 3 years later. I really love you guys

when the therapist started talking about his mum and how the memories are now blue, i just ugly cried. EDIT: I posted this a day ago and its doing numbers T_T the heck?

Riley: Gets robbed, bites her tongue, and stubs her toe. Joy: Look on the bright side! Atleast she knows how it feels

aww thanks hanni! hope you have a good day :) this video is awesome

버니즈들 개귀엽네 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 외국버니즈들이 너무 귀여움 ㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜ 하니야 고마워요🦭
