Pixar Unveils Italy-Set Coming Of Age Story ‘Luca’ – Deadline
Gorilla in the room is that they walk right up to the line of it being a coming-out story. The main character has an ill-defined attraction to both his primary male and female friends, and some minor side characters are presumptively a gay couple. But they never actually touch the line… nothing is said, the topic isn’t addressed, nothing “happens”, and the characters just kind of carry on. Apparently this treatment of the topic has been a source of controversy, with people being turned off for the usual polar-opposite reasons.
Not something I'd want to dwell on too much but I think a lot of this is just people interposing their own interpretations on fictional characters.
