Oh no! The animated film Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio starts at the grave of a 10-year-old. In a metaphor that has all the subtlety of a stick in the eye, it then establishes that the boy, Carlo, was blown up by a bomb while in church.

This recalls Bambi's mother, who (#spoiler!) dies at the start of the film. Animated terror for a new generation.

The twins are spellbound by it. (Their dad said they could watch, but I wouldn't have let them.)
