Toy Story Three

Toy Story Three; this is silly but poignant to an idealistic and sentimental type like myself. I took my son to see the movie. It is an outstand movie. My son was so happy; I can ’t really convey it without gong into a lot of details; he communicates a lot with body language and facial expression. Needless to say he was fascinated by the movie.
I find myself thinking about the movie myself. Two questions keep coming up in my thoughts: Why is Sherriff Woody, the cowboy doll, so important to Andy and where is Andy’s father. I think the answer is self evident: Andy’s father is dead and he gave Woody to Andy just before he died. Andy’s father was the county sheriff and was killed in the line of duty. Andy would miss his dad when he was at work. So Andy’s father gave him the sheriff doll to play with when he is away. Andy’s father said, “ This is Sheriff Woody he was my pall when I was a little boy; he will take care of you when I am not around” Andy noticed and said‘” Look dad he has a badge just like you“. A short time later Andy’s father died and Woody became Andy’s pall and that is how a toy could be so important to an eighteen years old man.
To be continued if time and circumstances permit.
