00:00It is true. And when I first met Paddington, I wanted nothing to do with him.
00:05Welcome to Ms. Mojo.
00:07And today we're looking at Paddington moments that made everyone cry tears of joy, even Nicolas Cage.
00:12We'll be going into spoilers for all three theatrical Paddington films.
00:17Paddington 2 is incredible.
00:20Number 10. Paddington is found. Paddington.
00:23We love how Paddington lives in a world where people just kind of accept that talking bears exist.
00:28That said, Paddington isn't immediately accepted when he arrives in London.
00:33How do you do? I'm just looking for a home, and I...
00:35Oh!
00:38Hello?
00:39Excuse me?
00:40Whereas most humans shun the lonely bear, including Mr. Brown, Mrs. Brown is the first to show him empathy.
00:46From the second Mary speaks to him, Paddington goes from being lost to found,
00:50which is cleverly conveyed in one of our favorite background gags.
00:55Hello there.
00:56Mary.
00:58Oh, hello.
01:01Speaking of background details, the perfect English name for Paddington is right behind him.
01:06Oh, look, Henry, it's perfect.
01:08You want to call him Ketchup?
01:10No!
01:10Ketchup the bear?
01:11Paddington!
01:13Paddington.
01:14Paddington?
01:16Pa-ding-ton.
01:18Paddington!
01:20Sorry!
01:21It's a sign that the Browns are the right people to look after Paddington, despite Henry's reluctance.
01:26It takes time for him to come around, but the immediate connection between Paddington and Mary warms our hearts.
01:36Hugh Grant steals the show in Paddington 2 as the villainous Phoenix Buchanan.
01:40Where do you think you're going, bear?
01:44It's a train. It comes to an end like all of us will have.
01:50While we can't condone his criminal activities, especially with Paddington taking the fall,
01:56this scoundrel makes the most of every second on screen.
01:59His comeuppance is made more satisfying knowing that incarceration truly helped Phoenix turn his life around.
02:05Listen to the rain on the roof, go pit-a-pat, pit-a-pat, pit-a-pat.
02:13Sit, kitty-cat, we won't get home for hours.
02:18Even after Paddington's release, the positive impact he left on the prison remains.
02:23Phoenix picks up where Paddington left off, bringing a joyful voice to the jailhouse.
02:27Rain, rain, don't go away, fill up the sky.
02:33Along with a captive audience, Phoenix receives backup from the guards and his fellow inmates,
02:38putting on an uplifting production number worthy of the West End.
02:42Rising like a phoenix after hitting his lowest point, this grand finale makes us cry with laughter every time.
02:48Listen quick to the lovely rain.
03:04Before meeting the Browns, Paddington found another family in Aunt Lucy and Uncle Pastuzo.
03:09While not biologically related, fate brings these three together as the couple spots a young bear cub heading for a waterfall.
03:16Pastuzo, look!
03:20It's... it's a cub.
03:23Lucy!
03:24Lower me down.
03:26Be careful.
03:28Lucy doesn't think twice about risking her life to save the drowning cub with assistance from Pastuzo.
03:33Although it looks like they might go overboard, the bears manage to hang in there.
03:37With Pastuzo's red hat landing on the cub's head, Lucy knows where they belong.
03:41Lucy! Lucy!
03:44I'm afraid we're not going to London after all.
03:48Why not?
03:50We've got a cub to raise.
03:52Abandoning their plans to see London, Lucy and Pastuzo remain in Peru to look after the cub.
03:57It's a testament to the dreams parents put on hold to ensure bright futures for their children.
04:02Yet, raising Paddington proves as gratifying as a marmalade sandwich.
04:06If we look after this bear, I have a feeling he'll go far.
04:15Mr. Brown still needs convincing, but the angsty Judy warms up to Paddington in time.
04:20I'm sorry if I wasn't very nice before.
04:22It's just... it's a new school, and I didn't want everyone to think I was weird.
04:27Oh, I understand, Judy.
04:29It's not easy being somewhere new.
04:31Along with brother Jonathan, Judy helps Paddington to look more presentable with a bath and a blow-dry.
04:36Well, I hope I don't look weird after all that.
04:40Too much? Too much?
04:43Mrs. Bird completes the makeover with a blue coat that's been passed down from one Brown to another.
04:48Even Henry can't deny that the coat suits Paddington, allowing him to stay.
04:52It's lovely. Wooden buttons for ease of pull.
04:56And these two sandwich compartments are an excellent idea.
04:59I must say, it suits you very well.
05:01Receiving his hat from his uncle and his coat from the Browns, Paddington's wardrobe tells a story.
05:07It's the story of a bear with more than one family, carrying a piece of each wherever he goes.
05:12He hasn't officially adopted their surname yet, but as far as we're concerned, this is the exact moment that Paddington becomes a Brown.
05:26He's a bear, but anyone who has immigrated to a new land can identify with Paddington.
05:32No, window cleaner!
05:33No, thank you!
05:35You sure, Colonel? They're awfully dirty.
05:37I don't care and I'm not paying!
05:40Despite skeptical stares, Paddington not only wins over the Browns, but also their neighbors.
05:45Well, for the most part.
05:47Mr. Curry relishes seeing Paddington carted off to prison, showing there may always be prejudiced people.
05:53Well, well, well. The truth is out.
05:57We opened our hearts to that bear.
05:59We opened our doors.
06:01Well, you did. I kept mine triple locked in accordance with the guidelines.
06:05What matters is that Mr. Curry's bigotry is outweighed by the people who love Paddington.
06:10Mr. Brown gives an impassioned speech about why Paddington represents the best this world has to offer.
06:15He looks for the good in all of us and somehow he finds it.
06:19It's why he makes friends wherever he goes.
06:22And it's why Windsor Gardens is a happier place whenever he's around.
06:26He wouldn't hesitate if any of us needed help.
06:29So stand aside, Mr. Curry.
06:32Even through a simple act like washing windows, Paddington enriches lives in ways he didn't anticipate.
06:38Hearing Henry's words, the other neighbors rally behind the Browns,
06:42helping them to get past Mr. Curry and on the path to bringing Paddington home.
06:47Yay!
06:53The third film sees Paddington venture back to Peru in search of his Aunt Lucy.
06:57He doesn't just find his aunt.
06:59Aunt Lucy!
07:01Hola!
07:02I'm afraid she set off on some sort of quest.
07:05But she knew we were coming.
07:06Well, that's what's so mysterious.
07:08Arriving in the hidden community of El Dorado,
07:10Paddington is reunited with the bear tribe who he was separated from years ago.
07:14It's a full circle moment for the franchise.
07:17Aunt Lucy found me when I was a cub.
07:21Wherever did she come from?
07:24She would never give up on me.
07:25That said, is this where Paddington's story comes to an end?
07:29The Browns assume so, tearfully reflecting on when they first found Paddington at the train station.
07:34The idea of being separated tears them apart,
07:37but the Browns love Paddington enough to let him go.
07:40Thankfully, there's no need for that.
07:42As Paddington tells the Browns, this might be his tribe,
07:45but his home is in London with them.
07:47This family stays together.
07:53The Paddington movies demonstrate the power of cinema in more ways than one.
07:57Tracking down an old film reel,
07:59Paddington is overwhelmed with nostalgia as he's reminded of Peru.
08:03Darkest Peru.
08:04A vast, unexplored wilderness shrouded in mystery.
08:08Until now.
08:09Is that where you're from?
08:11Oh, Paddington.
08:13It's incredible.
08:15Director Paul King's eye for visual storytelling is on full display
08:19as Paddington stands up and seemingly walks through the screen into his old home.
08:23Once the film comes to an end, so does the fantasy.
08:34If only for a minute though,
08:35Aunt Lucy, Uncle Pastuzo and Peru no longer feel like an ocean away.
08:40Just as Paddington becomes wrapped up in the imagery on screen,
08:43the audience doesn't feel like they're watching a movie.
08:53They're experiencing one.
08:54Becoming so emotionally invested in these characters,
08:57they might as well be real.
09:03No matter how optimistic one is,
09:05few places seem more hopeless than prison.
09:08Against all the odds,
09:10Paddington literally brings more color to the big house,
09:13enriching every prisoner's life.
09:17Oh, it's only one red sock.
09:19What's the worst that can happen?
09:25Afternoon, chaps.
09:28If you ask me, the pink really brightens the place up a bit.
09:32This includes the cranky Knuckles,
09:34who shows off his soft side after tasting Paddington's marmalade sandwich.
09:40What is this?
09:41It's a marmalade sandwich.
09:44Marmalade?
09:46Knuckles and the rest of the prison look out for Paddington as one of their own.
09:49This friendship is put to the test during a prison escape
09:52when Knuckles, Fibs and Spoon have two options.
09:54Aid Paddington in clearing his name or get out of Dodge.
09:58Sorry, kid.
09:59Change of plan.
10:01What?
10:02We're leaving the country?
10:03And you're coming with us.
10:05But you lied to me.
10:08They choose to flee,
10:09but the convicts are given a second chance at redemption
10:12when Paddington nearly drowns.
10:14Giving Mary a hand,
10:15they help Paddington bust out once again.
10:18Knuckles, you came back.
10:20Can't make marmalade on me own now, can I?
10:22Thank you, everyone.
10:27When Millicent Clyde looks at Paddington,
10:29she sees an animal who needs to be stuffed.
10:32The Browns, meanwhile, see a family member.
10:34Come on.
10:35Hand over the bear.
10:38No.
10:40We won't do that.
10:41Mrs. Brown?
10:43He's family.
10:44Family?
10:45You're not even the same species.
10:47As Millicent aims her firearm,
10:49Mrs. Brown isn't the only one ready to stand up for Paddington.
10:53Mr. Brown might have been hesitant about Paddington at first.
10:56By welcoming the bear into his home, though,
10:58Mr. Brown has come to realize just how wonderful his whole family is.
11:02It doesn't matter that he comes from the other side of the world
11:05or that he's a different species
11:07or that he has a worrying marmalade habit.
11:10We love Paddington, and that makes him family.
11:14And families stick together.
11:16We say without a shred of irony
11:18that this is one of Hugh Bonneville's most captivating moments on screen,
11:22touching the hearts of everyone in the audience.
11:25Unfortunately, his words don't get through to Millicent.
11:28But her malice is nothing that a marmalade sandwich,
11:31some pigeons, and Mrs. Bird can't thwart.
11:33Nice try, bear.
11:39That cruises!

12:02Paddington 2 ends with a symphony of waterworks,
12:05guaranteeing there won't be a dry eye left in the theater.
12:18We're submerged deeper and deeper into emotion
12:20as Paddington awakens in bed,
12:22finding himself home with the Browns.
12:24Although this is a cause for celebration,
12:26Paddington is disappointed that he missed Aunt Lucy's birthday.
12:46The ultimate gift resides downstairs, though,
12:48where Paddington's neighbors await.
12:50One by one, they tell Paddington how much he means to them.
13:00As a thank you, they pitched in to get Paddington a present
13:03that's just as much for Aunt Lucy,
13:05who stands on the other side of the front door.
13:07Lucy finally gets to see London,
13:09but sharing another embrace with Paddington is a dream come true.
13:13Paddington...
13:17Happy birthday, Aunt Lucy.
13:19Which Paddington moment gave you the feels?
13:21Let us know in the comments.
13:22I really do feel at home.
13:25I will never be like other people,
13:27but that's all right,
13:29because I'm a bear.
13:31A bear called Paddington.
