Hollywood funny girl Amy Poehler is predicting that new Pixar movie Inside Out will do more for kids than just make them laugh. The Parks and Recreation star voices the main character in the upcoming animated movie that takes place inside the mind of a troubled little girl.
“I know as a mother of two boys, kids have a really hard time telling you how they feel,” says Amy, 43. “They are not equipped yet and they don’t have the skills, so it’s really cool to be able to use the characters in a film to talk about feelings. Feelings are a hard thing to figure out and certainly to talk about and express. So I look forward to kids talking about, ‘I feel like Anger today’, or, ‘She acts like Joy’, that would be incredibly satisfying.”
