    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Animators used footage of several music performers, including jazz composer Jon Batiste, performing as reference for the film's musical sequences. By capturing MIDI data from the sessions, animators were able to retrace the exact key being played on the piano with each note and create the performances authentically.
    • Goofs
      (at around 37 mins) When Joe gets into the cat soul they wonder what happened to its actual soul. It is then showed that the cat's soul is on its way to the beyond, implying the cat died. When Joe gets his body back the cat is seen alive and well (at around 1h 12 mins), which makes no sense since the cat is dead. However, cats have nine lives.
    • Quotes

      Dorothea: What's wrong, Teach?

      Joe: It's just I've been waiting on this day for... my entire life. I thought I'd feel different.

      Dorothea: [beat] I heard this story about a fish. He swims up to this older fish and says, "I'm trying to find this thing they call the ocean." "The ocean?" says the older fish. "That's what you're in right now." "This?" says the young fish. "This is water. What I want is the ocean."

      [Joe just stares, bewildered]

      Dorothea: See you tomorrow.

    10/10
    Soul might be Pixar's most grown up film yet.
    While I found myself thoroughly engrossed while watching this movie a funny thing happened around the half way point. I realized I hadn't laughed once. Sure I had smiled a few times at the low key humor but never was a joke thrown in my face that seemed like it was just thrown in there to make sure the film didn't lose the kiddos. Admittedly Pixar doesn't usually go out of its way to ensure kids laughing every second but this film REALLY doesn't have that on it's mind.

    This is a lovely story about a grown man discovering his true gifts in life and it left a big smile on my face. A very sweet and inventive film that will hopefully leave most of us adults with something to think about when the credits role.

    FAQ9

    • When will they release this film on DVD?
    • Is Joe really the first person to ever reject being dead?
    • What do the lost souls mean by "Make a trade", which they spookily repeat over and over again?
