“Turning Red,” Disney/Pixar’s latest release, is a hilarious and heartwarming allegory for puberty centered on a Chinese-Canadian 13-year-old girl who turns into a giant red panda whenever her emotions overwhelm her.
Meilin (Rosalie Chiang) is a straight-A student who works after school at the family’s Chinese garden. She wants to make her mother (Sandra Oh) proud and works hard to live up to her expectations. But Meilin isn’t really the reserved mini-adult her mother wants her to be. She is quirky and rambunctious. She has a group of equally oddball friends, and they all are obsessed with the boy band 4-Town.
