Directed by Pete Docter, the film is the tenth animated feature film produced by Pixar Animation Studios. The Pixar team treated Carl's house like a film character, touring vintage neighborhoods to cast for the right mix of comfort and familiarity, with just a touch of melancholy. The film is available to watch online on various platforms, including Netflix, Prime Video, and Disney+. The movie was shown in 3-D in some theaters, but it is also enjoyable in 2-D, with a subtle and beautiful color palette.
