A Subtle Twist Could Explain A Silly Encanto Plot Hole
Disney's Encanto appears to put Dolores in multiple places at once, but a subtle twist could explain the situation. In Encanto, Alma Madrigal (María Cecilia Botero) receives a miracle on the night her husband dies. Pedro Madrigal sacrifices himself to save Alma and his village in the film. The sacrifice then gives Alma an enchanted candle, a magical house, and her family members receive special powers. For instance, Dolores (Adassa), one of Alma's granddaughters, receives supernaturally good hearing, and Camilo (Rhenzy Feliz), Dolores's brother, can shapeshift into other people.
The Encanto soundtrack, which comes from Hamilton's Lin-Manuel Miranda, has had unprecedented success. The world is talking about «We Don't Talk About Bruno,» as the song continues to top Billboard's Hot 100 list and now also tops Billboard's Global 200 list. Other Encanto songs in the Hot 100 list include «Surface Pressure,» «The Family Madrigal,» «What Else Can I Do,» and «Dos Oruguitas,» which also has an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song. In addition, the entire Encanto soundtrack sits at the top of Billboard's Top 200 albums chart.
