Disney Pixar’s “Coco” is full of catchy music that the whole family will love. It even has a song, “Remember Me,” up for Best Original Song at the Oscars in March. But did you know at one point “Coco” was envisioned to be a wall-to-wall musical?! And now we have a look at the deleted opening scene of “Coco”.
In this upbeat number full of dancing skeletons and fireworks we see Dia de los Muertos as a period of celebration and not sadness. It’s seen as a time for remembering departed family members and not mourning their passing.
Even the chorus of the deleted song tells us it’s not a time to mourn when it says “It’s not a time for being mournful, it’s not a time to bow your heads. Because the fun has just begun, after you die a lot is done, the party’s anything but dead.”
