It’s based on a Haruki Murakami short story and follows an actor played by Hidetoshi Nishijima. He seeks a chauffeur and winds up with a taciturn 20-year-old girl, played by Toko Miura.

Ruby, a high school senior, is the only hearing member of her family and often their only connection to the hearing world.

“ENCANTO”

Three nominations, Disney+.

There’s something about this Disney animated feature. Rather, there’s something about the music that has tickled many. The soundtrack became the first from a film since 2019 to reach No. 1 on the Billboard chart. Its most popular song, “We Don’t Talk About Bruno,” became the highest-charting song from a Disney animated film in more than 26 years. The music magic was made by Lin-Manuel Miranda.
