The Lorax (film)/Heartwarming: Difference between revisions

** {{spoiler|During the last music number 'Let It Grow', the Once-ler chops down the wooden planks shutting his window closed, and hears the town of Thneedville on the horizon, finally agreeing to plant trees. Cut to the ''first time the audience sees the Old Man Once-ler's face'', and he is ''tearing up'' and smiling! "Thanks, Ted."}}

** Also, when {{spoiler|the Lorax's final line to the Once-ler, which is all the more heartwarming considering his [["Well Done, Son" Guy]] issues.}}

** The ending scene had me literally crying through the entirety of the credits and for ten minutes after we left the theatre.

* Doubling as a [[Tear Jerker]], the Lorax and the forest animals setting a circle of stones around a chopped tree. Something we wouldn't have though twice about otherwise was made raw and emotional through how it was handled. The Lorax couldn't have looked more sad had that tree been a dead forest animal.
