A good drama tugs at your heartstrings, and Disney has perfected the art of building up your hopes and dreams by making you care about the characters, and then yanking them away in a minute. A consulting firm called sheets.works crunched the numbers and found that the moment of heartbreak most often comes halfway through a Disney film, although they vary from five minutes in (Encanto) to 96% of the way through the story (Pocahontas). Almost half involve the death of a parent.
