We Came for 'Coco,' Not 21 Minutes of a Snowman Saving Christmas
WNYC News | Dec 5, 2017
Disney-Pixar's newest film "Coco," based on the indigenous Mexican holiday Day of the Dead, is receiving a lot of praise by critics and audiences alike.
But the short film running ahead of it in theaters - a spin-off of Disney's "Frozen," called "Olaf's Frozen Adventure" - is causing a bit of an uproar. Indeed, it's been so controversial that the studio plans to pull the short starting this Friday.
WNYC's Alejandra Salazar speaks to Richard Hake about reactions to the film and how it resonated with her own experience of growing up in a Mexican-American family.
