I thought there was enough about Merida and Elinor's prior relationship in the film, even if it was shown in a less linear fashion than in Finding Nemo. It was lovely how both women realize there is value in the other's way of life. Elinor realizes Merida's skills are useful and her opinion on the big question not irrelevant, Merida realizes that a queenly presence and a diplomatic hand are valuable skills in another kind of wilderness. It was really touching to me that Elinor immediately regretted that spoilery thing she did in response to Merida's spoilery thing when they were screaming at each other. It showed that even if she didn't entirely understand her daughter's interests, she respected that it was something very dear to Merida all the same. Their journey was the same as Nemo and Marlin's, to understand each other, and for Merida in particular to put aside her pride and accept that her mother acted out of love the best way she knew how. Journeys don't have to be geographical to be epic.

If you're not familiar with Joseph Campbell already, you need to be. :)
