Last month, I spent a week on songs from the Disney hit Encanto, the soundtrack of which has become an unlikely chart-topper.

The movie features some excellent tunes, beautifully animated, including the pop culture phenomenon ‘We Don’t Talk About Bruno’ and ‘Surface Pressure,’ a catchy anthem for the over-burdened.

I covered five standout tracks, but I left one out so I could include it in this week’s lineup of my favorite musical moments in the films of 2021.

That track is ‘Dos Oruguitas,’ a Spanish-language ballad penned (like all of the movie’s songs) by Lin-Manuel Miranda and performed by Sebastián Yatra. The song, which translates to “two little caterpillars,” plays during Encanto‘s emotional climax.

This is the moment where Mirabel Madrigal learns the sad backstory of her Abeula Alma, and Alma accepts Mirabel after spending most of the movie blaming her for the family’s fading magic.

Disney, in both its Pixar and traditional animation branches, has perfected the art of the late-movie emotional gut punch, and this is one of their best examples yet. The stunning animation brings Alma’s story to life with nostalgic warmth, and ties the movie’s visual themes together beautifully.

And the song, performed with aching sincerity by Yatra, is a stunner. This is Miranda’s first Spanish-language tune, one that could well earn him an Oscar (and an EGOT) later this month, and it’s one of the loveliest melodies he’s ever written.

I really need to watch Encanto again, because all the pieces I’ve featured feel like they add up to one of the best movies of the year, and yet I have it falling just short on my personal list. That’s mostly due to a narrative choice at the end that didn’t sit well with me, but I want to give it another try to see if I’m being too hard on it.

Regardless, this is definitely a movie worth watching, and this scene in particular was one of the most moving I saw onscreen last year.
