  • The Heartbreaking Reason Abuela Was So Obsessed With Isabela | Disney's Encanto
    We know that Mirabel got pushed aside by Abuela when she didn’t receive a gift on her 5th birthday, but interestingly enough, we also see Luisa get taken advantage of by Alma, despite getting a gift herself. In fact, Isabela seems to be the only granddaughter that Abuela clearly favors over the rest of her grandchildren. We see throughout the movie how important Isabela and her success are to Abuela Alma, and sadly it seems like Luisa gets used and stepped on in the process, almost like Abuela sees her more like a machine, rather than human. But why? Why did Isabela get picked to be the favorite? Well the reason why may actually come from a grim psychological standpoint...

    I also think that Isabela represents the real length of how protected they were by the miracle. When Alma's kids got their gifts, nothing could assure her that this will keep happening for next generations. Isabela was the first born grandchild, which in itself might have been a major thing for Abuela and the actual moment she became an abuela. But also she was the confirmation that the miracle will keep on working for their grandchildren. That must have left a big emotional impression on Abuela Alma.

    With Luisa, that part where she lifts the man off his donkey was infuriating to me. Not necessarily that she did it, but that it was expected of her to do so. Ingrained into muscle memory for her. The dude didn't even *try* to dismount on his own, he just sat there like a stone and let her do all the work. No wonder he grew a gut.

      I've posted on other pages so I will shorten this responce-
      First Gift-- the Encanto and Casita (Safety and Protection)
      Secondary Gifts: Healing (Health) Weather (Food Growth) Knowledge of Future Events (Hope and continued safety). These gifts are most closely related to the First Gift.
      Third Tier: Beauty, Humor, Flexibility, Strength, the ability to hear (Listen). (Character traits-- more cognitive and enriching)
      Fourth Tier: Connectedness to Nature and communication with other life; Embodiment of love and spirituality. Understanding of something greater.
      As for the comment about using their gifts as a child would, that was probably true for all of them at 5 years old. I'm sure they all had fun at first--except maybe Bruno--making it rain or snow, making flowers pop out of the air, swinging on a playground of things to climb on, baking magic cookies-- After all Abuela had 3 preschoolers whose gifts she couldn't understand fully-- these magical doors just appeared and what? She knew they each had a destiny for her kids?

They will always have food and even shelter (Isabella can grow trees and Luisa can build with her strength).

    Agreeing with all this, I believe Isabella was her favorite for being the first. But once she got her gift of perfection I believe Abuela Alma became more enamored with Isabella because with her gift of perfection it would (possibly) guarantee that her offspring would no doubt inherit a strong/almost perfect gift.

    Mirabel's gift was actually the whole Casita though no one knew that it was that and since Mirabel's door faded away they all thought that she didnt have a gift. So then Abuela Alma thought that it would be a bad influence if Mirabel did something wrong to the Madrigal family and she blamed her for everything.

  • @Crow_Smith
    @Crow_Smith Рік тому +15

    This would also explain what I noticed: Both her daughters [Pepa and Julieta] do talk to their mom in ways that suggest THEY were not raised with the same borderline abuse we see her exhibit toward her grandkids. In fact, it seems only Mirabel is willing to talk back to her grandma outside of her parents and her aunt and uncle. So this theory definitely would help explain WHY she treated them differently. Her kids? They all had powers and she saw how they helped out. Then Isabela is born [and shortly after Delores is born, since they're like 22 and 21 respectively] and suddenly she sees this girl that looks like her growing up and puts that pressure on her, and of course needs the other kids to pick up the slack too so pressures them and it just builds over time. And is subtle enough that her own kids don't necessarily realize it outside of pointing out when she's too hard on Mirabel.

  • @draguta8995
    @draguta8995 2 роки тому +40

    Also, let's not forget the favoritism (double-edged sword that it is) involved in every other family member's gift being made as useful as possible, whereas Isabela's gift (She could grow any plant she can imagine/feel - 1-person farm producer anyone?). But instead of Abuela using Isabela's gift like she uses Luisa's, Isabela is allowed/required to have her gift be "pretty" (and only pretty).

      In a different timeline that the story makers wrote, he did tell Abuela, and this is evident when Mirable asks him why he's not going with her to see Isabelle - it's be cause he doesn't want Abuela to see him.
      And when he goes to the pond/creek to tell Abuela that it wasn't Mirables fault as he tries to get off the horse he says, "I don't care what you think of me, but if you're to stubborn to-" and then Abuela hugs him, stopping his train of thought. He had assumed that Abuela was telling Mirable off like she had all these years to anyone who was a dissapointment.

      Actually I think Bruno's gift is about perspective. Because I'm 99% sure if Bruno saw a vision of Isabella's new power (with the bold colors and all) Abuela would have taken it as a bad thing because she interpreted the change as Isabella being out of control. Sort of like what happened at Peppa's wedding. She didn't get the message the exact way he saw it. Same to Mirabel before meeting him and probably everyone else.

    I feel that Isabela has sort of an opposite problem to Luisa in terms of her gift. Where Luisa is overworked and exploited by everyone for her strength and general abilities, Isabela is trapped in this role of using her power to only grow perfect, very specific flowers instead of expanding her potential to the fullest. She didn't even know she was capable of growing anything other than roses or anything symmetrical, not even trees or other types of flowers. While she still isn't able to voice out her own desires just like the rest of her family, it seems that her power itself isn't taken seriously enough by everyone else and is under utilized other than to look pretty, and that they only see her and her power as this superficially beautiful object that isn't capable of doing much else, when there is so much potential with plants, as they all have their own aesthetics, uses, and roles in nature. It's not like she minds her powers, but I'd imagine doing the exact same thing over and over again for years will get tiresome. Even Luisa has some sort of variety in what she gets to do (not saying it's good what they do to her either). Not to mention that being in public must be exhausting for her as every movement she makes, and attitude she puts up, is a precise, orchestrated performance that is not allowed any slip ups.

    Considering each character in the family got around 5 min of screentime, apart from Mirabel, I think it's a strech to say she only interact with them based on what she can get from them. We really see very little interaction between them. Mirabel and Camilo don't talk during the movie (he sings at her though) Dolores and Mirabel interact like what, twice ? Luisa almost never exchange with characters other than Mirabel, apart from the last song etc etc. The movie is short, so straight forward. Every interaction has a purpose story wise. I think that might be a reason we only see Alma talk to the other grand-children for a specific, gift oriented purpose.

      Isabela was the oldest, she was set to be married first, because she was the oldest in the family. Even in the family picture, Isabella is first in the line.

      One of the screen writers tweeted out their ages. Isabella the oldest at 21, then Dolores also 21 but slightly younger, then Luisa at 19, then Camilo at 15, then Mirabelle also at 15 but again slightly younger, and then Antonio at 5. The triplets (Peppa, Julieta, and Bruno) are 50 in the film.

      A screenwriter confirmed the ages of everyone in the family. Isabella and Dolores are 21, though Dolores is younger. Luisa is 19, Camilo and Mirabel are 15 though Mirabel is younger. Antonio’s 5, and the triplets are all 50. The triplets being Julieta, Pepa and Bruno. I’m also sure Julieta’s the oldest of the 3

    The worst part is that Mirabelle didn’t get a gift because of Abula. The house didn’t get a gift because of how obsessed she was with power, there’s speculation that she pressured her daughter and her husband to have another child despite the fact that they were happy with having Isabella and Luisa

    Mirabel kinda looks more like Tio Bruno....this sadly does matter because it creates a subconcious dislike, if you resemble a person that someone else wants to forget about... it creates a dislike that isnt even intentional sometimes. Abuela viewed Bruno as a "lost child" meaning hes the kid that didnt fit her standard and was a black sheep of the family, out of his two siblings he was the most different...Mirabel also shared that quality of being different and not fitting the image. She wasnt prim and proper like Isa, wasnt mentally and physically strong like Luisa, she was the "Bruno" of her siblings. Which also explains why Mirabel and Bruno get along so well and have an understanding between eachother that the other family members dont quite have with him.
    Isabella looks more like young Alma, and fits the image of perfection she wants the family to have. She subconsciously sees Isabella as an extension of herself instead of an individual, and as a response she holds her to the same standard she holds herself to.

    I think isabela was adored by abuela alma because she was like a role model for the family to be a perfect example of what her family could be . And also because abuela alma and her perfect granddaughter isabela and Mariano and Pedro have similarities with each other so lets take isabela and abuela first what are the similarities they have? Well they have both have brown eyes straight black hair like so many similarities. Now let's see Pedro and Mariano both of them write poems. They also look the same. They both have wavy black hair and and have a white shirt and brown eyes. They also have same hairstyles. I think abuela alma adored isabela also because she was her first grandaughter perfection was needed for isabela go back to the scene when Dolores says Mariano
    wants five kids five flowers spring out of isabela's hair
    most of them being pink there is one single white flower. Instead of letting it stay on her hair abuela just pulled the flower out of her hair and shoved it towards the side she needs to be perfect. Actually my favorite encanto character is isabela because I have the exact same life as her. I am the first daughter and I am a role model for my younger siblings and I have the same looks as my grandmother just like Isabela

  • @NAVEMAN3
    @NAVEMAN3 Рік тому +1

    The reason why is because Isabela looks like Abuela when she was young the most and is living through her. The biggest hint is that while the rest of her side of the family is wearing blue to represent the mother, she is wearing purple close to pink to represent Alma. It's sick and tragic and I'm glad Isabela got out of it when she did. It never goes out well when one does. Any thoughts?

    That makes me question: who gives out the gifts? I think it’s Pedro and Abuela was shocked to see the candle flicker when Mirabel’s door disappeared. I believe it symbolizes many things.
    1: out with the old, in with the new. Mirabel was the transformation of the Casita and Abuela didn’t like it. Bruno had a hunch and knowing his mother, kept it from her (or told her and she shunned him).
    2: Control and perfection vs freedom and fun. (This might be expanded on in Encanto 2)
    3: the way we are as parents…sometimes we live through our children and sometimes we fight the children that are our opposites. Abuela allowed her son to be away from her for TEN YEARS. That’s a long time for a parent to push away from their child. I personally know what that’s like (I was “Bruno” so to speak) so she must have been trying to hold on to her control of her family pretty tight…
