“Soul” on Disney+.

Animated Disney+ feature considers how a soul becomes a ‘Soul’ in focus

We’ve all imagined what a human soul might look like. But Disney+ makes it the centerpiece of a storyline in an animated film that begins streaming Christmas Day, Friday, Dec. 25.

In “Soul,” we are introduced to Joe Gardner (voice of Jamie Foxx, “Ray”), a middle-school band teacher with a passion for jazz, who falls through a manhole in the middle of New York City and into The Great Before, a fantastical place where new souls get their quirks, personalities and interests before they head off to their human incarnations.

There he meets up with 22 (voice of Tina Fey, “30 Rock”), a precocious soul who never understood the allure of the human experience. As Joe tries to show 22 that life as a living, breathing person has its upsides, he sets off on a journey that may help him answer some of life’s more important questions.

The film was directed by Oscar winner Pete Docter (“Up,” “Inside Out”), who years ago became fascinated with his own infant son’s apparent personality and soul at birth. More than 23 years later, he turned that into a story when he began questioning his own life path. “(It) just inspired him to think about his kids,” explains Dana Murray, the film’s producer, “like his son when he was born, just (how) he showed up with so much personality on day one. And how is that?

Where does that come from? And so really just those two things really inspired the spark, really, for the idea.”

As for portraying the soul itself, Murray and the team at Pixar Animation Studios did plenty of research, talking to a wide range of spiritual people, including priests, pastors, Buddhists and Shamans to get their take on how a soul might appear.

“And across the board,” Murray says, “it was very, very similar in how people described it: ethereal, vaporous, no form.

And so we were like, ‘Oh, well how are we going to portray that on a screen? We need something.’ But we didn’t want it to be ghostlike, like Casper the ghost.

“So from that research, we just started our character artists down a path of exploring and they went down all kinds of crazy routes and we went back to a drawing that Pete had done at the very beginning. Super simple, of just like that light bulb shape.”

Indeed, this is prime Christmas Day viewing for the family. Murray thinks it has something for everyone.

“I feel like after 2020 and just the year I think the world has had ... often the holidays can be a time of reflection,” she says. “And so I’m hoping people can walk away from the film wanting to just take a look at their own lives and think about: Are they spending the limited time they have on Earth wisely and what would they change? And just to be kind of grateful for what they have around them.

But I feel like there are a lot of themes in the movie that it’s just interesting, I hope everyone walks away feeling something different.”

7 p.m. on LIFE Movie: The Christmas High Note

9 p.m. on HALL Movie: Marry Me at Christmas

Frederick Wiseman’s acclaimed 2020 documentary explores the city government of Boston from the perspectives of racial justice, housing, climate change actions and more.

Like his other films, though, Wiseman doesn’t follow the familiar template for most documentaries in terms of a narrative arc, off-camera narration or interview subjects. Instead, much like a Robert Altman drama, the film makes its points almost off-handedly as it follows routine activities by city officials in the fall of 2018 and the winter of 2019.

Rachel isn’t in a merry mood after she gets stood up for the last time by her long-distance boyfriend, but things start to turn around when she meets Michael and his teenage daughter, Sophia. At rehearsals for the community’s Christmas Eve pageant, Rachel can’t help noticing that Sophia is nervous about hitting a high note in her song solo, so she offers to coach the girl. As she does so, Rachel’s interest in Michael deepens. Jamie Luner, Johnny Messner, William McNamara and Kassandra Clementi star in this yuletide romance.

Bridal boutique owner Madeline Krug (Rachel Skarsten, “Reign”) jumps at the chance to plan a lavish Christmas wedding, since she thrives on the challenge of orchestrating such a challenging event during this frenzied time of year. She hadn’t counted on having a major distraction, however: the bride’s handsome brother (Trevor Donovan, “Sun Records”) , a movie star who’s in town looking to support his sister, not fall in love. Emily Tennant also stars.

“Movie: Out Stealing Horses”

Stellan Skarsgard (“Chernobyl”) stars as a man who retires to the solitary life in the Norwegian wilderness following the death of his wife but has memories reawakened when he meets a neighbor he knew in 1948 in this 2019 drama from director Hans Petter Moland (“Aberdeen”). Bjorn Floberg, Tobias Santelmann and Danica Curcic also in this joint Norwegian/ Swedish/Danish production.

“Movie: The Midnight Sky”

George Clooney directed and stars in this adaptation of Lily Brooks-Dalton’s acclaimed novel “Good Morning, Midnight,” which follows Augustine (Clooney), a lonely scientist in the Arctic, who tries to stop Sully (Felicity Jones) and her fellow astronauts from returning to Earth to a mysterious global catastrophe. David Oyelowo, Kyle Chandler, Demián Bichir and Tiffany Boone also star in this drama movie. (ORIGINAL)

Greg Kinnear You also worked earlier with Josh Boone, a director and executive producer of “The Stand,” on the movie “Stuck in Love.” Did you suspect this was in his plans then?

Even in that first meeting, he was very passionate about Stephen King, so ... you blink, and almost 10 years, the phone rings. And that’s when I first heard about this coming back to life. I’m not sure this role would have jumped out at me, but all the characters were great in the book; I remember that from reading

its relevance now?

I think there’s sort of a hyper-reality going on in Stephen’s version, and now that we’ve all lived through the real version, it does feel like people’s personalities are heightened at this time – whether it’s a friend or someone you work with. In some ways, that’s for the News Tribune

and the producers made me feel right at home. It was all great.

Since “The Stand” first was made for television in 1994, did you have interest in seeing that version?

8 p.m. on TLC Buddy Valastro: Road to Recovery

New York perfume expert Blaire Henderson flies to Scotland in search of a rare fragrance called The Heart of the Highlands. Upon arrival, though, she is dismayed to discover the license holder to that perfume is held by Alistair McGregor, a dashing but stubborn aristocrat who isn’t interested in selling. Thinking fast, Blaire pretends to be a documentary filmmaker, hoping she can learn the secret ingredients for the fragrance on the sly. Brooke Burfitt, Dan Jeannotte, Geraldine Somerville and Nicholas Farrell star in this holiday drama.

For the new episode “Delivery: One Box Only,” host Guy Fieri and son Hunter invite chefs Darnell Ferguson, Amber Lancaster and Crista Luedtke — all of them past Flavortown Market winners — to participate in this at-home competition. A surprise awaits the trio, though, when each of them receives just one box of groceries instead of two. Since the competition calls for them to make both a hot lunch and a Sunday supper, the chefs must use the same ingredients in different ways and combinations to create both meals.

This new two-hour documentary charts the recovery process of fan-favorite “Cake Boss” Buddy Valastro, in the aftermath of a September bowling accident that left his right hand horribly mangled. To date, Vasastro has had three surgeries on his hand, which was impaled on a metal barb as he was fixing the pinsetter in his home bowling alley. The injury left him with numbness and limited motion in two fingers of the affected hand, which is the dominant hand Valastro uses in his work.

7 p.m. on TBS Movie: A Christmas Story

Aussie filmmaker Michael Gracey made a very big splash with his feature directorial debut on this 2017 blockbuster, which overcame mixed reviews to become the fifth-highest-grossing live-action musical of all time. Critics mainly took issue with how much artistic license the movie took with the real-life saga of P.T. Barnum, played by Hugh Jackman, but audiences clearly were swept away by the sheer spectacle and engaging cast, which also includes Zac Efron, Michelle Williams and Zendaya. The song “This Is Me” was nominated for an Oscar.

Surprisingly sweeter than you might expect from the premise and the casting, this 2003 comedy stars Will Ferrell as Buddy, a human who was adopted by elves as an infant and grows up thinking he’s just a large version of his adoptive father (Bob Newhart). When Buddy finds out the truth about his parentage, he is crushed and goes out into the real world to find his birth father (James Caan), who has his own family and isn’t interested in rehashing the past.

Kicking off its annual “24 Hours of a Christmas Story” seasonal marathon, TBS reprises (with sister channel TNT) this holiday favorite from 1983, which stars Peter Billingsley as Ralphie, the little boy who yearns to find a Red Ryder BB gun under the Christmas tree. It’s about parents, little brothers, bullies, decoder rings, double dog dares and most of all, the workings of a youthful mind. The writing by Jean Shepherd (who also narrates) captures it all perfectly. Darren McGavin and Melinda Dillon also star.

Based on an unpublished children’s book by Sergio Pablos, this charming 2018 computer-animated musical comedy from director Karey Kirkpatrick follows a band of Yeti whose peaceful life in the Himalayas is disrupted when they encounter a human airplane pilot (voice by Jack Quaid) whose plane has crashed. They’re stunned because, of course, up until now they thought humans were mythical creatures. The large voice cast also includes Channing Tatum, James Corden, Zendaya, Common, LeBron James and Gina Rodriguez.

“Play it once, Sam. For old times’ sake.” An exiled and bitter American (Humphrey Bogart) running a popular nightclub in Casablanca can’t help but fall in love again with his onetime sweetheart (Ingrid Bergman) in this 1942 film that is one of the true Hollywood classics.

He decides to use stolen documents to escape Nazi-occupied Morocco with her, but things don’t go as planned. Horror-film icon Peter Lorre gives a fine supporting performance.

The new episode “Roswell: The First Witness — The Writer” takes investigator Ben Smith to the hometown of the late U.S. Army Major Jesse Marcel, who was the first officer on the scene after a “flying disk” crash landed in New Mexico in July 1947. Marcel died in 1986, but Smith seeks to talk with surviving family members who have information that supports Marcel’s story of a subsequent government cover-up. Laurence Fishburne is the narrator.

We have recently implemented a new fitting and programming procedure that we were unable to offer in years past. Our initial use of these techniques has resulted in better hearing and understanding for our patients.
