I liked how there was no twist villain, with the primary conflict centred around the family's past. Plus, Mirabel never received a gift, but she never wanted one, she just wanted to feel a part of her family.

Mirabel was the gift. The miracle. Thats why she didn’t get a door. Also when she felt left out or sad, the house started cracking. That explains why when the rebuilt the casita, she gets the front door, she is the Casita , the gift, the miracle.

When Dolores says “he wants five babies” and Isabella blushes she grows a bunch of flowers but one white flower and when abuela notices she picks it out saying “our PERFECT Isabella”

I kinda felt like she was always the Casita's favourite person, even if she didn't have a gift. And I think her gift was to be the next Abuela, the ruler of the family.

Here's a detail you missed! When Mirabel is setting the family table for breakfast, you can see each of the plates have each family member's name enscribed, as well as their gift. Antonio's plate already had animals on it , even though he hadn't gotten his gift yet!

When Mirabel went to open her door, when she was young, she wiped her hands on her dress. When Bruno "saved" her from falling in the walls, he told her that she's sweaty! The consistency of little things like Mirabel having sweaty hands is amazing!!

Mirabel also doesn’t have a typical “pet” in the movie to make her a Disney Princess. Pico doesn’t really count since he’s only there momentarily and flies away. And as a glasses wearer, I was very happy to see a Disney main character with glasses and I was happy to see her deal with some of the struggles with glasses (pushing them up, them getting tilted when hugged, etc.)

If you watch the scene where Isabella gets scared from hearing "he wants 5 babies" and generates flowers in her hair. Most are the normal perfect pink and purple flowers, but one WHITE daisy. (She lost control of her perfect persona) and abuela sees it and has a look of concern and picks it off her hair as she says "perfect isabella". Another cool hint at the family drama!

I loved how this movie wasn't stereotypical of other Disney movies and stood strong on its own. Really hope they make a second one or an animated series.

You forgot to mention that Dolores has sound waves on her outfit.

Something I noticed - when Luisa sings “I’m as tough as the crust of the earth is”, the earth she threw immediately cracks; I’d like to think this subtly indicates she’s cracking under the pressure she’s in, and that it wasn’t really that tough after all

Also something I only noticed bc rewatching ending, Abuela wears a black shawl majority of the movie, something she wore right after her husband had died. At the end, after reconciling with Mirabel and when they rebuilding the house, she no longer had the shawl on. I believe this symbolizes that she is no longer mourning and has manage to move on.

Another Small Detail: Each of the powers of the Madrigal triplets (Julieta, Pepa and Bruno) is tangental to the passage of time. Julieta's gift is that of healing, which reverts one to a past healthier state. Pepa's emotions effect the present weather conditions. Lastly, Bruno is able to see into the future. This also lines up with the order of their birth, Julieta being first born, Pepa the middle child and Bruno being the youngest. Edit: To a certain extent this even goes further into their personalities and characters. Julieta is the closest tied to the family's traditions and strives for her daughters to find their place in it. Pepa's intense emotions have a tendency to change from moment to moment, rarely lingering for too long. Bruno's always worrying about his own 'bad luck' and constantly tries to curb it with throwing salt and knocking on wood; worrying about what the future holds for him.

Seriously this movie needs a preceding animated series.

I think why Mirabel didn’t get a gift is because she touched the candle, then touched her chest, then touched the door. All the rest of her family touched the candle then immediately. Mirabel’s share of magic went into her heart ♥️

If you're wondering why Mirabel didn't get a gift at the end of the movie, here's why: It would defeat the whole purpose. Mirabel never wanted a gift, she just wanted to feel like part of her family. The entire point was that the people were more than their gift, that the gift didn't define them and it wasn't as important as them themselves. If Mirabel had received one, she would no longer be living proof that you didn't need a gift to be special.

Another detail is Mirabel's glasses are green just like Bruno's eyes when he sees into the future

another teeny tiny detail: Notice the remarkable irony on how Pepa's children (Dolores, Antonio, and Camillo) are completely in control of their gifts when Pepa is not, while Julieta who is completely in control of her gift gave birth to children who are secretly struggling with their's (Isabella, Luisa and Mirabel - with no gift).

Other Easter eggs in the movie include: The triplets' gifts affecting tenses in time (Julieta, Pepa, and Bruno affecting the past, present, and future respectively) Madrigal Messages (the gifts that the Madrigals were given are more like messages to help Abuela grieve, alongside other life lessons) Dolores' Earache ("dolor" translates to "pain" in Spanish, and you can see her flinch and cover her ears when something gets loud for her)

The two little things that had me from the movie was Mirabel’s lip pointing to the gift, and how the guy finger snaps during Antonio’s gift and room tour… those are gestures we make back home in the Caribbean…lol I was excited

"You'll first notice Bruno in the verse about the wedding..." *Bruno literally walking up to the camera* Yea...I noticed him really well

Mirabel's eyesight is never once corrected by her mother's power. Because it isn't an imperfection. This ressonates the debate about one of the Eternals, the "perfect beings", being deaf.

Mirabel's gift was to bring balance to all the family members who were not happy. Bruno was gone and not apart of the family, the others were under pressure, over stressed, or unhappy. The grandma saw Mirabel in an unfavorable light thinking she was the end to their "encanto", thus making her unhappy and then Mirabel's mom unhappy to see her daughter sad. The family although together was growing apart. Only Mirabel could bring the issues to the surface and confront them head on. She gave up on making her abuela proud and instead spoke the truth that needed to be heard. Only then could their unhappiness be fixed and they become freer and happier.

Also, don’t forget that the reason she doesn’t have a “gift” to save the family, aside of Abuela’s perspective, is because everyone have been so consumed with their own gifts they are forgetting their place in the family. That’s why Mirabel is so close to casita. She’s not overpowered by a “gift” that she can see what everyone is dealing with and what needs to be taken care of. Foreshadow: Casita holds the family together (physically)> Mirabel takes care of Casita (emotional connection) > Mirabel have been and will be taking care of the family and holds it together (mentally and emotionally).

Another nice detail I noticed was how Mirabel was trying to help with the decorations and handmade special candle holders. (the fact that she is a gifted seamstress showing how she ties the family together) The movie shows her placing her two sisters customized ones down (showing how she was going to connect with them) and then the grandmas which catches on fire. Symbolizing their conflict. If that was not enough the grandmother actually interrupted her which is why it caught on fire in the first place showing that she is primary a cause of the family's conflict.

In Latin culture, food is thought of as healing. Specially if it’s cooked by our moms or our grandmas. Its so comforting it’s almost like it has healing powers

About their clothes, You can see all the hints in the film -Suns and Thunders on Pepa's (also the earrings) -Abuela has the butterflies n her skirt. -Sound Waves on Dolores'. -Toñito has animals on his vest. -Luisa has weights/dumbells on her skirt. -Too obv for Isabela, the flowers ofc. -Julieta has a mortar & pestle. -And all of the hints are in Mirabel's Skirt. (even the Candle)

Another thing was at the end whenever Mirabel was walking up to the door to put the knob in you’ll notice that Antonio is holding her hand. Almost like it’s her door and he’s supporting her like she supported him. 🥰

I really liked that someone with no magic actually saved the day. I feel like in a lot of movies, even ones without magic, there has to be something special about the character. That was my biggest issue with the new Mulan, it felt like she wasn’t the ordinary girl who worked hard and became the same as the guys. In the new one she HAD to have something special about her to do the job. In Encanto, I had the same feeling here as I did about the original Mulan movie: not everyone is special, and that’s okay. You might have to work harder, but you can still be just as important and make an impact. As the kid who grew up never really having a niche they were exceptional in, and even as an adult, it’s nice to see those types of characters.

MsMojo - "Glasses wearers everywhere were thrilled to finally see a bespectacled Disney protagonist..." Once again, "Atlantis: The Lost Empire" gets grossly overlooked.

With regards to the butterflies, the song Dos Oruguitas or Two Caterpillars, half way through the song the song lyrics change to two butterflies instead of the caterpillars. The song sends such an amazing message that correlates so well with the movie. What a well done song.

I loved how the Madrigal family, although each exceptional, felt familiar and relatable. Many families have members who are known for their cooking, being more openly expressive with their emotions, an older relative being the heart of the family, having pressure to fill a certain role, the kids who are fun loving goofs, and so on.

IMAGINE if Mirabel’s gift is Keeper of the Casita, so when Abuela is done it’s up to Mirabel to look after the Casita Also she may have the power to see people’s inner problems through song, hence why her family all sing to her about their problems

Mirabel was meant to be the next keeper of the house/magic. That’s why she didn’t get a door right away. Abuela wasn’t ready yet to let anyone else but her protect what they were given, so she didn’t accept Mirabel. Once Abuela and her finally made up and she was truly accepted into the family, she was able to open the door to the house for everyone else, meaning she was taking on the role of the next keeper. The magic was disturbed when both keepers were at odds, and ended up being destroyed. The old house was gone, and once they rebuilt it and she touched the door, it became the new house with her as the protector.

Butterfly has something to do with Mirabel, if you watched the credits, you'll see the original Design of Mirabel's door, it has a butterfly in it. Mirabel also sounds similar to Miracle and I think it is a foreshadow that Mirabel is the miracle itself. Also, another evidence that Mirabel is the miracle is that when she put the knob in the entrance door, it lit up like their rooms, the family's portrait is also the image in the door and it makes me think that if Abuela is the keeper of the candle, Mirabel is the keeper of the house. I also noticed that only Mirabel and Abuela talk to the house. I also noticed that in Abuela's time, the candle saved them and it appeared on her door, it became her gift and in Mirabel, it was the butterfly, the butterfly was the one who saved them and guided her and it also appeared on her door

I didn’t even realize that some of the Madrigal family members can have such problems. Like Isabel for example, I didn’t realize she was following her abuela’s expectations and that she was really sick and tired of her life being perfect and of living a dream. It’s literally telling us that we all have our own challenges to battle and not everyone can understand that.

I still really like that Luisa lifts with her legs and not her back. It’s a good touch that the animators put in

Another thing I've noticed between Mirabel and her sister is that they portray the three siblings types: The Beauty, The Brawn, and the Brain. Did anyone else notice this?

One Question: How in the HELLO does Lin-Manuel Miranda write such AMAZING songs for these kinds of movies/musicals? They are ALWAYS promising and NEVER disappointing.

I did figure out that there is a Sleeping Beauty reference in the film as well. The oldest sister is Flora (creates plant life), the youngest cousin is Fauna (talks to animals), and Mirabel could very well be Merryweather (doesn’t fit in).

Mirabel’s present to Antonio before his ceremony had all of the animals on the box. She told Antonio, “I know you’re an animal guy.” The actual gift was a stuffed leopard that looked exactly like the real leopard that came to live with him after he got his gift. This suggests the candle gave gifts based on the characters personalities. Also, Mirabel was very perceptive and could see all of her family’s true gifts. She is the candle and the only family member who didn’t need a gift. Mirabel is the only one who could make the candle shine brighter.

Something else you might have missed if you're not South American: The Madrigal's are what is known as "desplazados", meaning people that had to leave their towns and build a new one due to the guerrilla. Butterflies are important in this context as well.

I don't know if it's just me but I really find Mirabel's Mom, Jullieta to be really beautiful. Like warm and motherly kind of beautiful (well because she is a mother) but it's just warm 💛

Here’s my list: -Abuela’s children are the three facets of her personality Bruno: Inaightful but Paranoid and Cautious Pepa: Holding everything together while fighting emotional break downs but still having them Mirabel’s mother: Loving but has the need to fix everything -Bruno’s prophecies were general and left to interpretation. Fish died, but we kno certain fish last only days. Guy get fat, but what did he do to get fat. Guy loses hair but that’s something natural. Plus what was the time frame of these predictions. Dolores literally telling everyone that Bruno was still around. Mirabel making her own miracle at the end of the movie. It’s that they “don’t” talk about Bruno, they “can’t” talk about Bruno, probably due to Abuela forbidding them to. Felix was literally about the spill the beans and Pepa stopped him and basically changed the story about her brother, she was literally happy to see in the end. Dolores secretly telling Mirabel Bruno is still around.

Mirabel doesn't really have a room of her own. She's been living in the nursery room her whole life. That's why she and Antonio were roommates until he got his door. It's another symbol of how much she is cast aside by the family. Since she had no magical door/room, she was relegated to staying in the baby room her whole life.

1. It doesn't appear in the video but Bruno's visions are green likely because emerald is the most precious gemstone of Colombia 2. In every video of Encanto they said poncho but we call it RUANA 😩 3. Also, kids drink coffee with milk (very light coffee), but the movies kid is drinking tinto (only strong coffee) that's why he acts like that

Notice how the 2 outcasts of the family have green eyes. Bruno when he sees the future, his eyes turn green. And then Mirabels glasses

Luisa isn't the oldest Isabella is. She's the middle child. Also weren't the cracks appearing for a while ? Bruno was patching them up.

"Movie buffs may have noticed references to Cerberus" Considering that the entire screen is filled with Cerberus whilst the character is singing the name Cerberus aloud, I don't think you need to be a movie buff to notice the reference to Cerberus.

Mirabel really is Abuela’s counterpart; opposite views and doors but both wanting to save the home and the family. I think she didn’t get a gift because she was meant to take Abuela’s place as protector of Casita, hence her ‘door’ being the literal front door to the home. Both are strongly motivated by family, both are intensely loyal. The theme of trauma and inter-generational processing of that trauma is also interesting. Abuela has seen the worst that can happen to a family, a burden she alone carries. Sharing with Mirabel helps her understand why her grandma is the way she is and Abuela understands how her fear meant she let down her granddaughter when she should have supported her. It seems the big theme of the movie, other than family acceptance and love, is communication.

Isabel also releases petals when she's nervous or in shock. It's not really constant and maybe I'm wrong but when she walked past Mariano, there were petals because she was nervous, when Mirabel and her bumped: petals, and when Isabel and Abuela were walking together talking about Isabel and Mariano's future there were swirls of petals.

By not receiving a door, Mirabel was the reminder to Abuela, & all others, that the Encanto’s gift is each other. It was all about family. The only reason they were blessed was so that they could be safe, stay together & live on. Abuela lost sight of what was important, putting so much emphasis on “keeping it together” for everyone & the village when, in fact, it was causing them all to drift apart.

The fact that, probably, Mirabel means something similar to “to look beautiful” so you can connect it to her being a beautiful person inside, just because she's unique her own way

I hate that Bruno doesn't get the love he deserves till the end. He is so adorable!! He is my comfort character

I think my favorite part was the different telling of the families origin story. Specifically the difference in emotion in Abuelas face when Pedro’s death was described by mirabel in the beginning and abuela kinda just looks sad when he dies but at the end when Abuela is really describing her trauma, you can see the pain in her face. The pure sorrow. She can finally understand why her Abuela feels the way she does. So beautiful and subtle.

Some things I noticed: The song "What Else Ean I Do?" Is also a nod to Frozen, as it's kind of the "Let It Go" of Encanto, with the bursts of magic and the one singing it finally being free to explore their power after being stuck. The reason Luisa is with donkeys a lot is because they're an animal of burden, they carry the weight, like Luisa. Dolores is almost always whispering, until she loses her power or is singing what Bruno told about her future. She also holds her ears during the big celebrations. In "We Don't Talk About Bruno," after their verses on their future, you can hear Dolores and Isabella saying "I'm fine" or "I'll be fine," though faint. Abuela has a black shawl with throughout most of the movie, symbolizing still not recovered from the loss of her husband. During the first song, "Madrigal Family," Mirabell sings, "full of stars and everyone gets to shine"(or something like that) and in the last song "All Of You," she sings, "you're all stars that want to shine, but stars dont shine they burn"( or something like that-) And finally- Isabella had the most pressure to be perfect because she looked the most like Abuela did, and Mariano also kind of looked like the Abuelo(sp?). She was also most likely at least slightly jealous of Mirabell, since she could go and do whatever she wanted

Bruno’s prediction about Isabella someday having the “life of [her] dreams” was accurate in an unexpected way: it initially seems to refer to her simply being Ms Perfect, emphasising the apparent unfairness Mirabel perceives when every other prophecy cited was negative, but it’s actually about her being able to relax and enjoy being her true imperfect self.

Took my daughter to see this movie and we loved it!! I wanted to see something big and colorful and different. This was so beautiful seeing it on the big screen. We both really enjoyed it.

The it's bigger on the inside mention had me squealing with delight! I could not believe it! I love whenever they mention DW in pop culture! It makes my day!

*Encanto* was such a wonderful *Disney* movie. The story and music were both done perfectly.

What about this one?I legit just realized that the reason Mirabel's mom and dad are together is because her dad is accident prone and the mom can heal. Did anyone else notice this?

okay.... Dolores has sound waves on her outfit, and Camilo has chameleons which symbolize their gift.... but I noticed that Mirabel has butterfly on her dress, butterfly symbolize resurrection/revival Abuela thought the cracks start from Mirabel Beacuse She didnt have a gift or something when Bruno continue to read the future with Mirabel they know that Mirabel was meant to revive the magic and be the next candle holder.

I’m so surprised you didn’t include the most important clue that hints why she didn’t get her powers, after she held the candle, and was about to open the door for her bedroom, she wiped her hands on her shirt, go back and watch you’ll see it

As Colombian, I enjoyed the movie, and also I know how hard it is to represent our culture, because not even all people in our country is aware about how rich we are in culture, so different from region to region, that's what makes us so special and unique. For Colombians as well, I wanna know if I'm the only one who thought about Omaira (from the natural disaster occurred in Armero) when the entire house fell down upon Maribel. I'd like to know if there's a reference in that scene.

Also, you should know that in the song “we don’t talk about Bruno” Dolores mentions she can always here him muttering and mumbling as well as saying she can here him now.

13:09 I LOVE THE "MOM" WHEN SHE SINGS IN THAT PART

In the scene where the family takes a picture in Antonio’s new room Pepa has a rainbow over her head representing a mixed happy and sad emotion for her son

I loved this movie and the music, especially “Surface Pressure.”💜💖 I also loved them showing the pain/struggles the Madrigal family members were hiding.😢

In hind-site, the family is dead lucky that Mirabel didn't turn into a shut-in after the door disappeared. If that were to happen, the house would've been torn appeared much faster and sooner, and with Mirabel as a shut-in would never have save the house.

The gifts each person receives seems to be an enhanced version of a passion or hobby what they already have. I know Antonio is the only one we see before receiving his gift, but there is strong implication that he has a love for animals even before he gets his gift, Mirable gifts him a toy she made and calls him her "animal guy" Then using that same logic of hobby tying to their gift, when we look at Mirable she is cover in different threads, colors and embroidery representing here love to create and make things her own. (She even wears little pompoms as earrings) Her love for sowing, embroidery and thread become a physical representation when she later TIES the family together. Mirable's outfit is covered with different colors of thread, each one could be a representation of a family member. This just further shows her love of her family and how she brings them together not only in the end but metaphorically as well through the colored threads intertwining on her clothes.

8:58 Waiting On A Miracle is my fav song besides (obviously) We Don't Talk About Bruno.😍🥰🤩

Also, in each branch of the family, they have a kinda specific color or shade they wear, for example Pepa, her husband, and their kids wear yellow, and Mirabel’s family wear blue, with the exception of Isabel for most of the movie when she wears a light purple dress, which is a bit like a combination of Mirabels “family color”, and how Abuela wears pink, and Isabel seems a lot like Abuela’s favorite grandchild. Just something I noticed!

Somethings I notices while watching the movie: When there's fireworks or people screaming Dolores puts her hands on her ears, as it hurts to much noise. And also Isabella at the start seems to have an straight hair, but during her song you can really see how it gets less straight for me showing that shes lettibg her be.

Two things are that Louisa was not the oldest but the middle child . Also Dolores said “I can hear him still here “in the song “we don’t talk about Bruno” referring to that bruna never left. Also when Isabella confessed that she didn’t actually love Mariano she made a catas with her power showing she cracked and was “imperfect” I also feel like the casita is more connected to mirabel then the rest of the family

I think everyone noticed this but during “Surface Pressure” while Luisa’s in the pink clouds mirabels glasses fall off so when we see Luisa jumping on the clues it gets blurry and then clear again cuz mirabel put her glasses back on

Fun fact about this movie: Bruno’s name was actually going to be “Oscar” but changed it to match with the song.

Seriously one of the most beautiful Disney films, right up with Tangled, Moana, and Coco.

Two things 1) Anyone notice that Pepa wears yellow clothing. Julieta wears blue-ish clothing. And Bruno wears green. Yellow mixed with blue = green. Going to prove that the Past (Julieta's ability to heal past injuries) + the Present (Pepa's ability to affect the current weather) = the Future (Bruno's prophecy ability) 2) During Antonio's gifting ceremony, Abuela says "We have a new gift" and everyone cheers. Notice that when everyone cheers, Delores covers her ears because at that point everything is loud because everyone is making a sound at once.

I noticed in We Don't Talk About Bruno Isabella's prophecy seems to be good reflecting how we/Mirabel think her life is a forever fairytale but she only got that future (living the life she wants and her powers growing) by going through the event that "ruined her life" so it's still a bad Bruno vision

Omg I just noticed something. Abuela had 3 kids. Then when they got married, those people also had 3 kids. Maybe it’s a pattern.

Anyone else notice the bi flag coloured rainbow on Mirebels shirt, a nice nod to the voice actress 💗💜💙

Just noticed that during the Titanic scene (“Surface Pressure”), the donkeys are playing violins - like the legend of the band that played on as the ship was sinking! Haha so clever. 🎻

I get it now Abuela was praying for a miracle. The miracle that the house (their safe haven) wouldn’t be taken away from her or her family. Without realizing til the end that Mirabel is the miracle she is the glue to the house and the family. Her gift is that she keeps both up but her and Abuela’s conflict completely destroyed the foundation (and hurt mirabel internally). So they needed to literally, from the ground up, create a new foundation in unison together.

I noticed how when Abuela and Abuelo have their song in Encanto, they share food which is Julieta's gift, they are married with flowers which is Isabela's gift (and maybe a nod to Pepa as well), and she predicts having triplets which is like Bruno seeing the future!

So her name means "beautiful sight"? Cool! She can see the beauty in everyone. Just like we should, especially when we are mad. This can save the world. Her power of seeing the good in everyone even if she was jealous or scared unified her family.

When Mirabel is following Luisa just before the Surface Pressure number, someone asks Luisa to reroute the river. Considering the fact that Luisa references Hercules in her song, I'm betting this was a reference to the Labours of Hercules, since he reroutes a river to clean out a king's stables for one of them.

this movie deserves every award.

I like how on the song " don't talk about bruno" you can see bruno on the balcony bobbing his head to his own song hahah! Also, another minor detail i noticed was that in the bruno song everyone said " he's here" throwing out a little hint that he's still in the house.

Encanto is my absolute favorite Disney film. It was so beautiful, the music and lyrics are amazing, and the metaphors are perfect. I cry every time. I love it.

I love the strong floral motif carried throughout the movie mirroring the family conflict. Flowers tend to be thought of as a soft and delicate but some are capable of growing almost anywhere, like cracks in a sidewalk and some are, as Isabela points out, carnivorous even if they look pretty. Obviously flowers also serve as food and shelter for insects and fit in with the change and rebirth theme. Some species, like fireweed, grow well in the ashes of a fire. Although I do find it interesting that Antonio is the only male (besides Mirabel's father) whose clothing carries on that motif, but only when he's getting his gift.

As someone who understands spanish I would say that her name Mirabel, probably has nothing to do with the word ''mira'' that actually means ''look'' (as a command) and more with the origin and meaning of the name Mirabel, which can mean charming, like in ''Encanto" (charm in spanish).

I don't think anyone noticed that yet, but I watched Encanto yesterday, and I noticed that when Bruno and Mirabelle met, he had a bucket and was keeping away from the wall, which I'm pretty sure he build himself to be lighter than the rest of the wall, as if deep down he knew what his future entailed. He prepared the wall and the bucket for his escape when the house collapses.

First off, I don't think Lin knows how to write a bad sing, lol. What I liked about this movie is that it was about FAMILY, and that every family, even gifted ones struggles with relationships from time to time. I also liked the fact that Mirabel learns that everyone feels insecure...not just her. I was able to relate to her very easily, despite being as demographically opposite as you can get from Mirabel. I sometimes feel like the family oddball, myself. Finally, the animation was just great, amazing effects, and what a color palette.

As someone with Colombian roots I loved this movie and I understood every detail my friends didn’t

Encanto is what the better version of what happened to Elsa and Anna''s family. The parents' in frozen kept Elsa locked up and "controlled" it in the unhelpful way. Encanto encouraged all the powers to be controlled in a way to benefit everyone

I LOVED THIS MOVIE!!!! I recommend everyone to watch this movie

I am from Brazil and, as a portuguese speaker, although I can kind of understand french, spanish, italian and a bit of romanian (since these languages have lots of similar words), I was already aware of "Mira" being "sight", but every time I hear "Mirabel" somewhere in ky mind says "Look well/Take a good luck", since "Bel" is similar to the word used for "good/beauty" in portuguese

If you look closely at the scene when Mariano meets the Madrigal family; when Felix tells Pepi what Mirabel did and the clouds start to appear, you would see Bruno's eye peeping out the crack behind Abuela while Pepi's thunder strikes.

also!! Dolores says that she associates Bruno with the sound of falling sand, which is literally what Mirabel sees when she opens Bruno's door for the first time. another hint towards his relationship with seeing the future and the hourglass!
