The movie Up exemplifies true character education through Carl Fredricksen, Russell, and Charles Muntz both of whom change exponentially throughout the course of the 101 minutes in the movie “Up”. Carl Fredricksen, a 78 year old man, is the main protagonist in the movie “Up”. In the beginning of the movie, Carl is a curmudgeonous human being, and neglects the whole of society. He is egocentric to a fault, and every contact with the outside world he has appears to deteriorate the quality of society. For example, the inciting incident in the movie is when Mr.Fredericksen injures a construction worker.

Not only this, Carl’s caring nature seemed to be a tunnel, and his wife was at the end of the tunnel. Every day, he talked
