“See the light where the sky meets the sea/ It calls me/ No one knows how far it goes"
Moana struggles between Fe (extraverted feeling) and Ni (introverted intuition) through much of the fist part of her adventure: on one hand, she want very much to become a good leader, please her father and others, and be strongly a member of her people’s society; on the other, she longs to follow her internal dream, her seemingly unexplainable instinct to connect with the ocean, and her longing for something beyond what is right around her. Moana’s dominant Fe is also clear in the ways she persuades Maui to work with her, by quickly recognizing his desires and motivations and changing her tone of persuasion to best reach him. Her Se (extraverted sensing) is shown in her adventurous spirit, but that it is a lower function is also clear at the times she seems a bit more out of touch with her physical environment.
Maui -- ESTP
“Do you know who Maui is? The greatest demigod that ever lived, who stopped the sun, who pulled up islands out of the sea, and battled monsters.”
For the demigod Maui, present experience is the first focus of life. Maui not only clearly lives for adventures of the moment and values sensory-focused conquests; this is also shown through the subjects of the stories he tells. Maui’s dominant function is Se (extraverted sensing), which is why he generally focuses more on the present than the past or future. He is also quite motivated by his Fe. Maui tried to find acceptance and appreciation from the people by doing incredible things for them, and the very thought of being honored by them as a hero completely changes his thinking and motivates him greatly.
Gramma Tala—ENFP
“I'm the village crazy lady. That's my job.”
Gramma Tala is a strongly intuitive type. More than being in tune with surroundings, she always seems to be in touch with another realm and with emotional or spiritual connections, which also suggests Fi (introverted feeling). She is always aware of the non-present possibilities, and she is quick to make connections between the meaningful stories and past of her people (Si) and the events of the future to unfold. Gramma Tala guides others, but not in a direct, Fe-oriented way; instead, her messages come across more indirectly much of the time as she follows her spirit in a meaningful and playful way.
Chief Tui—ESTJ
“You will do great things, but first you must learn where you are meant to be.”
Tui’s dominant Te (extraverted thinking) makes him a responsible and attentive leader. With Si, he has always followed the ways of his people with their ocean adventures enthusiastically. But after things took a turn for the worse, there was no going back when he had made the decision to keep everyone on the land. The strong way in which past experiences affect Tui is clear in the way he tries to keep his daughter safe, as is his Te: when she wants to go past the reef, the idea immediately brings back his experience, and in order to keep her safe, he tries to externally organize what she can do (rather than explaining the emotional past experience to persuade her as an Fe dominant type might do).
Sina—ISFJ
“Sometimes who we wish we were, what we wish we could do, is just not meant to be.”
Sina is a warm and supportive mother to Moana. She helps convey the emotional reasons behind Tui’s limiting of Moana’s freedom to explore the ocean farther than the reef. Sina is soft-spoken but has strong Fe, and she understands the motivations of all sides of a situation.
Tomatoa—ESTP
“Are you just trying to get me to talk about myself? Because if you are... I will gladly do so.”
Tomatoa is all about the sensory world (and himself, but he’s no the most healthy ESTP!). This monster dedicates his life to filling is world with shiny things. And nothing seems to delight him more, besides his collection, than telling anyone who cares to listen everything about himself.
Te Fiti—INFJ
Te Fiti is happy when she is giving her all to the world, and when this is the case, she is extremely peaceful, quiet, and caring. When the heart is taken from her, the rage that can come with inferior Se takes over and helps produce the Te Ka side of her personality.
An analysis of the character as an INFJ throughout the course of the movie Frozen
Young Elsa is fairly serious and reserved, but she also has a very playful side, true to her INFJ personality. She loves playing with her energetic sister Anna, even though sometimes it takes a little effort on Anna’s side to get her excited to play along. Elsa’s strong Fe (extraverted feeling) is clear from even this age in the movie. She finds the most pleasure with her ice powers through sharing them with her loved ones and giving them a great time. In fact, it seems the main motivation for using her powers is the joy of others, a very strong sign of high Fe. We also see her dominant Ni (introverted intuition) at this age. Elsa is very creative with her powers, more in an exploratory fashion than an Fi-users more personal and emotional way. She is more singly focused than an Ne-user, enjoying exploring her powers more and more deeply and seeing what she can create. In this way, she is creative in a strongly Ni-Ti way.
Elsa’s dutiful nature comes not from Si or Te, but from her Fe. An INFJ can all to easily put aside his or her own desires or parts of character in order to make those they care about happy, protect them, and/or support a broader purpose. When Elsa accidentally hurts her sister, she is, as any loving sister would be, extremely devastated. But the aftermath of how she deals with this shows her INFJ personality. When she distances herself from her loved ones, it is out of her strong desire to keep them safe. A classic characteristic of INFJs is the tendency to put the needs of others above one’s own, and after such a frightening experience and at such young age, Elsa exhibits this trait very strongly. INFJs can be plenty dutiful in general, especially when the ones they care about are involved. So when Elsa takes the gloves and follows the words to “conceal, don’t feel, don’t let them know,” she takes it to heart with the utmost importance from a place of high Fe. Elsa is also a type 1 in the enneagram, which makes her that much more concerned about doing the right thing.
After the loss of her parents, Elsa, still very young, continues to suffer through a tremendously difficult situation, and what we see is not a healthy development of an INFJ. Still deeply hurt by what she did to her sister, and with her inferior Se (extraverted sensing) on top of it making her that much less trusting of or comfortable with her growing physical powers, Elsa keeps to her self in order to keep the last one she has left—and herself—safe. She also is trying very hard to hold onto something her beloved parents left her and do what she can to be the daughter they wanted, continuing to conceal her powers to the best of her abilities. An INFJ deals best with emotions and emotional pain by communicating with a well trusted person, because the natural way to understand emotions is by first taking them in through Fe and then interpreting them through Ni and Ti. Without that, the inner world can become more and more painful and hard to comprehend and manage, which is what we see happening with Elsa when isolated in her frozen room. Tears can help as well, but this INFJ’s troubles are a bit bigger than that alone can help with. Why doesn’t Elsa try and reach out to someone, then? In her deeply hurt state especially, her young ESFP sister isn’t someone she feels she can or wants to burden, and she also deeply fears hurting Anna, the last close loved one she has left, again, resulting in a sort of door slam to protect her sister. She is also very young, not a mature INFJ who might realize that a friendly listening ear is what she needs. She can’t very well talk to any staff either, as she fears her own safety should her secret get out. But besides that, an INFJ is generally extremely private except for those he or she is very close with; so especially after the devastating loss of the two main people who had filled that role for her all of her life, Elsa feels very lost and alone. She tries to put up a strong exterior. The experience with the Trolls had a similar strong impression on her, with the message later manifesting through her Fe in the way she acts based on the event.
We also see a strongly intuitive (and inferior Se) Elsa as opposed to a sensor Elsa in the way that she reverts to her mind rather than attempting to master the physical with her ice powers—as an intuitive, she becomes less and less comfortable with her powers, whereas a sensor likely would have made some effort to work with them, as well as turning more towards this physical escape to ease her pain by nature.
At the coronation, we see a character who continues to try and fill the role that is really her only choice, and the one she imagines her parents would have wanted. This is very difficult for her, as is seen in part by how nervous she is. But INFJs often care too much about their appearance in the eyes of others than is good for themselves. Elsa’s Fe nature has lead her to try and stoically adopt this important social role. She doesn’t want any of herself, or her at this point still freighting powers, to come through. We even see her gaining some satisfaction as she begins to successfully accept her role; this at least is finally something she feels she has successfully accomplished—something her parents wanted. At this point, severely affected by her childhood situations, Elsa is not a healthy INFJ at all: her dominant function is repressed in all positive ways, she tries to be guided by Fe but this also is under used, she has relied somewhat as well on the internal logic of tertiary Ti, and she hasn’t even begun to really integrate her inferior function, Se. Until now, her Ni has primarily been witnessed through her very mental escape and her very focused mentality in holding herself together to achieve the goal of eventually being a successful queen, and of preserving her own safety.
The party at the coronation completely exhausts Elsa’s under-used extraverted functions. It is not uncommon for INFJs to be able to manage surprisingly well through a lot of socializing or physically focused present events, but with a lack primarily of Fi or Si, they are unaware of the negative effects on their own states until it is often too late and they realize how very overwhelmed they have become. Once overwhelmed, it only takes a small push in the wrong direction to make the INFJ fall completely apart. When Anna insists on her very illogical marriage idea, Elsa is pushed over the edge in this way. INFJs can become irritable and quick tempered in such situations, and this was also quite an obviously ridiculous notion to her Ti. So when Elsa flees, it is very much the way an INFJ would exit such a situation—not by first attempting to keep some external order (Te), but fearing what she is capable of and feeling no longer capable of taking more of the situation, shutting the situation out entirely. The accidental unleashing of her powers is also an example of her inferior Se, noticeable by the way it surprises even herself—she is clearly very out of tune with her physical abilities. The lyrics of "Let it Go” here: The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside/Couldn’t keep it in/Heaven knows I’ve tried” shows the crumbling of her INFJ facade in the face of overwhelm.
During the “Let it Go” sequence, Elsa finally begins to embrace her own internal visions and what is meaningful to her with her Ni. She even begins to creatively adopt and explore her inferior Se during the song. The creation of the ice palace then, and all that leads up to it, is in effect an expression of Ni through Se for Elsa. While before she was trapped in unhealthy Ni-Ti, repressed Fe, and entirely unexamined Se, with the new burst of freedom she begins to find a somewhat healthier perspective and self. The lyrics: “A kingdom of isolation, and it looks like I’m the queen” are a somewhat ironic reflection of Elsa’s on the role she forced herself into and where it has lead her to find herself now as a result. She reflects on the rules, the wishes of her parents, which she tried to follow so hard, the only guiding advice she felt she had left from them, and she begins to escape from that and more freely follow her Ni in a healthier way, singing “I’m never going back, the past is in the past.” The “perfect girl” that she now says is gone was not an uncommon identity to adopt for the high achieving, perfectionistic, and often people-pleasing INFJ.
Consider these lines from “Let it Go”:
My power flurries through the air into the ground
My soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around
And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast
This is extremely descriptive of an Ni-dominant mind and the sort of creativity that comes with it. The way the palace grows and grows developing on the single idea of the snowflake is very Ni as well. An Ne user might take many other, varying forms and concepts as inspiration, but Elsa’s palace is extremely unified in its design. It is also quite abstract, considering that all of the architecture she has been around (mostly that one room, even!), is extremely different than what she has come up with so suddenly. It is also far more aesthetically focused and has good attention to detail but coming from a very general unifying theme of the snowflake, rather than being more practical and primarily detail oriented, which may have been more the case were Elsa a sensing type as opposed to an intuitive.
When she adopts her glamorous new look, Elsa is really exploring her Se. She is going all out with this creative freedom and moving onwards. She clearly is very much in the moment at this point, which is a very good sign of Se. Because it is the inferior function, INFJs can sometimes get caught up in Se, engaging fully in the present and forgetting about past or future. With Ni-Se, they are also often drawn to the finer things, so it’s rather fitting for this INFJ in the excitement of Se to create a thrilling outward change of character.
But in her isolated icy life, Elsa is still not a happy or healthy INFJ. She has moved more into a somewhat healthy future-oriented mind frame and accepted that she can let go of the unfitting role she tried so hard to fit herself into, and she is exploring her powers and other aspects of her self more freely and outwardly. But she still has hardly any outlet for Fe or sharing emotions, and when we compare this Elsa to the Elsa at the closing of the film, we can really see clearly that she is not happy, only trying to be strong and do what she thinks is the best for everyone, telling herself she is happy because of this. And indeed, the freedom from the great social expectations, the role filling, the dutiful exterior—this does bring her happiness. Were she a high Te user, this likely wouldn’t be so much the case: instead of feeling happier because she imagines she is doing the best thing for everyone (Fe), she would probably exhibit more signs of guilt for leaving her post as the queen (Te), but this isn’t the case. She may not be happy overall, but the part of freeing herself from the past in the very least did make her happier (and that is because she is a dominant Ni user)—that, and the Fe driven belief that her isolation is benefiting her people. One of the main motivations of a strong Fe-user is to keep the social harmony, and this is exactly what Elsa is doing by isolating herself.
When Anna comes to visit Elsa in her ice palace, it is once again an unhealthy personality that accidentally harms her sister and ends up driving away exactly what she needs the most—loving family. Elsa has resigned herself to this new way of life, as described above, and she has decided that she won’t go back to the past—‘this is what is best for everyone, and I must keep moving forward like this to keep the harmony.’ So even though she is moved to see her sister, she asks that Anna leave not because she is stuck in the past but because she is more stuck in the future that she sees as logically needing to be the case (Ni-Ti). Both Ni and Si dominant types can become immovable from their perspectives, it can be extremely difficult to change the minds of either once they are made up. An INFJ, especially an unhealthy one, can really too heavily on his or her intuition; and once INFJs feel they are right or know what to do, there is not any simple convincing them otherwise. The difference is that the Si user will rely on sticking with the past and what has worked well before, whereas the Ni user will toss aside the past and single-mindedly move towards the future and what is intuited (and reasoned, with Fe and Ti in this case) to be the best way to proceed.
A looping or unhappy/healthy INFJ can become quite irritable and even quick tempered if pushed too far in the wrong way. With the creation of Marshmallow, we witness the inferior Se rage an INFJ can have. The arrival of the armed men is met by the same fiery Se with Marshmallow, and it is a very frightened Elsa that ends up almost harming the men. She is more developed in her inferior function, continuing to act but not thinking as much. When Hans (ENFJ) tells her not to be the monster the people fear she is, Elsa’s wall of Se drops away immediately. Hans has cleverly addressed the Fe nature of Elsa’s personality—she does care what others think of her (it was most of the reason she kept going so long before the way she did), the last thing an INFJ would want to be viewed as is a monster, since they pride themselves on their notable strengths as healers and protectors. No type would want to be called a monster, of course, but it seems an especially immobilizing blow for Elsa as an INFJ—a thinker may more easily have been able to keep thinking through the situation and not be so unavoidably hurt in the moment as Elsa clearly was.
Elsa’s part in the act of true love that saves her sister, the blow that hearing she was responsible for her sister’s death—it all is simply part of a loving sister’s character rather than type. But in the very ending, when all is well again, there are some definite signs of Elsa’s INFJ personality. Elsa is finally happier, for real this time. She has finally made a connection with her sister, but that isn’t all of it. Before, Elsa was trying to be a certain member in her society, to traditionally fill a role that met standard expectations—but that wasn’t her at all. At the end, Elsa is happy not mainly because she can finally fulfill her role as queen successfully, but because she can give to her people, even if it is in a rather unusual way. Love, not fear, is the answer. Elsa not only gets things back to normal, but she thinks creatively to do all she can and give the people a wonderful time, again thinking first of the overall happiness and being very positively affected by it as a very empathetic type. There really isn’t much Te or Si to the happiness of the ending. The joy doesn’t come from a role well done or a need practically met, but rather from a very original celebration that shows Elsa is very much her own kind of queen now. She doesn’t even seem to find particular joy in organizing the event, simply stepping aside and enjoying the time freely with her sister and letting the joy spread however it wants to.
I hope you have enjoyed this character analysis of Frozen’s Queen Elsa on why she is an INFJ. Thank you very much for reading!
“The physical appearance of the please makes no difference. It is still no, so go to sleep.”
Gru has been dedicated to his vision from a young age (Ni). He’s always been a bit of an outsider, but he eventually embraces being different, pretty much as far as he can. Gru’s main concern isn’t with how he’s perceived or how he gets along with others; he has dreams and he is going to work hard to find inventive ways to implement them in reality. He is a good organizer, enjoying being the minions’ leader and keeping things in order (Te). Though on the surface he is not easily sentimental, Gru has a good soft spot inside, and he grows to care very much about those with whom he is close over time (Fi).
Margo--ISTJ
“Uh huh, what about the floor? And what about the air?”
Very caring and protective of her younger sisters, Margo takes a while to open up and trust others. She is direct and clear in her communication is very practical. She can be witty and sarcastic, and she doesn’t hesitate to voice her opinions or ideas, sometimes outsmarting Gru. Margo has a very kind and loving personality as well, but she doesn’t easily open that up to everyone, and she is used to being the adult among her sisters.
Edith--ISTP
"Can I drink this?"
Edith is curious and playful, but more on the reserved side. She has somewhat unusual interests, seeming to enjoy a bit of a darker side. Edith is independent and tends to be quiet. She is a tomboy with a bit of a destructive nature, and she is also brave and athletic.
Agnes--ENFP
“He's so fluffy, I'm gonna die!”
Agnes lives in an imaginative world. She is always seeking possibilities, especially when they are meaningful to her interests, and she sometimes focuses more on this than the present aspect of a situation. Agnes is playful, lively, spontaneous, and kindhearted.
Lucy Wilde--ENFP
“I wasn't expecting that. Or was I?”
Lucy is enthusiastic, lively, and has an adventurous spirit. She is always up for a new, exciting mission, and she enjoys exploring more and more ways of doing her job (Ne). Sometimes her creative side takes over a bit, and being a dominant intuitive, she is also prone to be a little less organized in her physical world and actions.
Dr. Nefario--INTP
“A dozen boogie robots. Boogie! Look at this! Watch me.”
With his scientific mind, Dr. Nefario loves to make new discoveries in the field that interests him. He is inventive in his pursuits, and he’s a bit of an eccentric, but he’s great at exploring the powers of the mind. He isn’t always the very best at taking orders or specifically following requests, sometimes getting caught up in his own ideas more so.
Vector--ISTP
“These aren't pajamas! It's a warm-up suit.”
Vector loves the appearance of his villain’s life (Se). He’s an inventor, and likes to create the best equipment he can (Ti). As a perceiver, he is more of a relaxed seeming villain than Gru, preferring to optimize the ways in which his fortress and other tools can help him enjoy the life he’s leading.
Scarlet Overkill--ENTJ
“Doesn't it feel so good to be bad?”
Scarlet masterfully runs her villainous life. She is outgoing, and she loves to put on a good show. First and foremost, everything must be under her control. Scarlet also has her plans and sticks to them, always determined to achieve new goals.
Herb Overkill--ISTP
“Guys! Cut it out! This is really unprofessional!”
An intelligent inventor, Herb also loves a good time. He is a laid-back man but still clearly somewhat of a genius, he follows Scarlet’s lead and supports her with both his inventions and his personal attention. He’s also big on surrounding himself physically with what makes him happy, and he can sometimes get distracted from an intended job when something more enjoyable comes up in the moment.
El Macho--ESTP
“Somebody's going to die tonight.”
El Macho is very macho. He is colorful, outgoing, spontaneous, and thrill-seeking. He loves to show off what he can do, taking on quite extreme endeavors to do so. El Macho’s world revolves around the moment and the physical world. He never fails to put on a big show, whether in the restaurant or as a villain.
Dru--ESFP
“Oh, I love this guy! Look at him! But hair would make you better.”
Dru loves a good time. A much more exuberant and spontaneous version of his brother, he’s really just about the opposite. Dru thoroughly enjoys all the things that come with being a cool villain. He is very friendly, charismatic, and outgoing.
Balthazar Bratt--ESTP
“I've been a baaaad boy.”
An eccentric villain who loves the spotlight, Balthazar Bratt loves to make a show of all his endeavors. He like to attract attention, turning heads with his performance-ready outfit and his outgoing, flashy personality.
Minions--ENFP
“Banana!”
The minions are a fun loving and lively bunch. They are quite loyal to Gru and their jobs. Spontaneously excitable, the minions are always up for a good time. They are clever too, building and operating weapons (and often enjoying the process). They often get caught up in their imaginative little worlds.
hello! so for the longest time i've been confused as to deciding whether im an INTP or an INTJ. most of the quizzes i took said im an INTP but i strongly relate to INTJ as well! i was thinking, maybe you could help by identifying INTP and INTJ characters? that way maybe i can decide in which character i see myself the most. thank you!💖
Happy to! First, for reference, here are some posts on characters of both those types:
You can also check out the lists under the pages drop-down menu for characters of all types.
To pick some characters that really stand out from those two types:
INTP: Hiccup from How To Train Your Dragon–definitely my favorite example of an INTP in animation. He stays very true to character through both the movies as well, a solid INTP! Alice from Alice in Wonderland is also a good example, though not perhaps as three-dimensional as Hiccup. And Hiro from Big Hero 6 is a good INTP too!
INTJ: Hank from Finding Dory is a good example. There’s also Gru from the Despicable Me movies, and Anton Ego from Ratatouille. For a great example of an INTJ, though not an animated character, is Mr. Darcy from Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice.
Be sure to check out the cognitive functions in depth as well for typing! The functions of these two types are opposites in many ways–while INTJ has Ni-Te-Fi-Se, INTP has Ti-Ne-Si-Fe. This is an excellent description of INTP that also goes in depth into the functions, and from the same website you can also find an equally insightful description of INTJ: https://personalityjunkie.com/the-intp/
I hope this is helpful for you, and thank you for asking!
“If you are what you eat, then I only want to eat the good stuff.”
Remy follows his heart. Though he loves his family and tries his best to oblige them, his clear omnipresent desire to explore what he really loves shows his strong Introverted Feeling. He is fairly outgoing in some ways, but he seems most himself and happiest when he can go off on his own and satisfy his personal interests, showing detailed thoughts on the nuances of good foods in his highly imaginative mind. Remy is also quite naturally able to tune into his physical environment, which is especially apparent with his talents around food and the physical senses. Introverted Intuition is also used, which can be seen through his ceaselessly pursuing his dream in whatever we he can, as well as his desire to learn more deeply about his one main love--cooking. He is always eager to look deeper, to sense and discover more in food. Extraverted Thinking seems to be fairly well developed also--Remy can take command of his situations when he needs to.
Alfredo Linguini -- ISFP
“Don't look at me like that! You aren't the only one who's trapped, they expect me to cook it again! I mean, I'm not ambitious, I wasn't trying to cook, I was just trying to stay out of trouble! You're the one who was gettin' fancy with the spices!”
Linguini may not have as strong a passion through most of the movie as does his little rat friend, but their personalities are not all that dissimilar. Linguini is more on the reserved side. He is kind hearted and perceptive, and a bit more open to a bit of a wild idea than many others might be. Before he is going to throw Remy into the water, Linguini is moved by the rat’s pleading eyes and proceeds to project his own internal state on the animal, which indicates his Introverted Feeling. He can get a bit caught up in his own world and sometimes has trouble controlling the outer world, but he finds a passion in the end and along with this, more strength in personality.
Collette Tatou -- ISTJ
“Food doesn't go, orders pile up, disaster! I'll make this easier to remember: keep your station clear, or I WILL KILL YOU!”
Introverted Feeling is also a function of Collette’s. Like Remy, her passion is cooking, and she works tirelessly to make her dreams in that world come true. Collette is good at sticking to a plan and getting things done very well, down to the last important detail, and she doesn’t appreciate her hard work and great skill being interfered with. Collette came to her cooking position by following the system, diligently and rigorously, and she strictly follows Gusteau’s original recipe’s--all indicators of strong Introverted Sensing. As an introvert and a thinker, especially a Te user, she is good at presenting an organized and commanding exterior, but she is happiest when she can follow her true passions as well.
Anton Ego -- INTJ
“We [critics] thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so.”
Things had better go Anton Ego’s way--his word is powerful and can determine the future of any great restaurant. Ego has the commanding presence of Te, and the classic deep concern for quality that comes with an Ni and Se combination (especially prominent in INxJ types). He enjoys thoughtful reflections on the subjects of his critiques, and he thinks deeply to find the truth. Through his honest and thorough thought into the matter, he comes to break not difficultly but drastically from tradition, praising the artistry of a rat and even becoming a most frequent diner.
Skinner -- ESTJ
“You are COOKING? How DARE you cook in MY kitchen! Where do you get the gall to even attempt something so monumentally idiotic?”
Nothing is more infuriating and bewildering to skinner than things getting out of his control--especially if he suspects someone is playing games. This chef is an ESTJ of a particularly unforgiving and controlling sort, one could almost say an exaggerated caricature of dominant Te (not to mention the other functions in his stacking).
Django -- ISTJ
“Food is fuel. You get picky about what you put in the tank, your engine is gonna die. Now shut up and eat your garbage.”
Django has been through a lot and feels great responsibility for his large rat family. He’s learned from experience and lives accordingly to how the world has shown itself to be. It is this and his caring nature towards his loved ones that has him holding his son from following what understandably seem like dangerous and unrealistic dreams.
Emile -- ISTP
“I don't like secrets. All this cooking and-and reading and TV-watching, while we...read, and...cook. It's like you're involving me in crime, and I let you. Why do I let you?”
Emile likes his food too, but unlike his brother, he’s not terribly picky. Emile is happy to go along with things how they are, and he’s hesitant to do anything that might put him in unnecessary danger or upset his father, also skeptical of Remy’s unusual habits and interests.
Auguste Gusteau -- ENFJ
“If you focus on what you left behind you will never see what lies ahead!”
Though for most of the movie Gusteau is only a figment of Remy’s imagination, we still can see his personality enough for a rough typing. The chef is jovial and extraverted, and he is a great encourager of others, as a living man as well as for Remy, helping others follow their dreams. The Ni/Se combination is also quite plausible in this case, considering Gusteau’s excellent taste and naturally strong appreciation for the finer things.
