At least Mahershala Ali and Walton Goggins weren’t exactly recognizable yet, but Adrien Brody was coming off of a relatively recent Best Actor win.

I’m also in the middle of my Disney marathon right now, so it’s interesting how much more this feels like a Ghibli movie than an American one. It’s literally just a little girl being miserable and getting progressively more miserable…
