and translated to Spanish which I would think wipes out rhyming patterns. Very few of the actors spoke Spanish at least not fluently. Our daughter was telling us that Selena Gomez had heard Spanish of course and knew some but didn’t actually speak it. Oh and they had to sing in Spanish.

It sounds like pandering to me or as my daughter said “Oscar bait” which I’d never heard before but fits perfectly.
