Talk:Mamá Coco/@comment-29378940-20180311201807

Question: I simply love the portrayal of Mama Coco, both as a grandma and as a realistic aging woman with health and memory issues and the way this effects how people in her family react around her, which is beautiful and very true to life, but concerning the mythology behind the story of Coco the movie, I'm curious. It shows that when people pass on to the Land of the Dead, their skeletons resemble how they last looked in life before passing on, in other words Hector is still 21, Imelda is in her 70s, and Coco is 100 years old, but seems to now be able to walk and respond to others easier and know who people are like recognizing Abuela Elena and Hector. Does anyone know whether mentally Coco is restored to a point prior to her memory issues following her passing on? She seems almost childlike when she greets Hector. Also it almost seemed like her greeting Hector on the other side of the gate on Dia De Muertos was the first time they'd seen each other, but I'm guess the big hug wasn't a greeting so much as her hugging him happliy because he was able to come with thme to the Land of the Living?

If I'm babbling, I don't mean to. Just trying to clarify some things. It still strikes me as weird that the father is 21, the mother is in her 70s and the little girl is 100 years old for all eternity lol.
