This study examines the use of conversational implicature and politeness maxim violations in Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio. Using a qualitative content analysis method, 60 utterances in the movie were analyzed based on Grice’s implicature theory and Leech’s politeness principles. The findings reveal 28 generalized and 32 particularized implicatures, with 24 utterances involving violations of politeness maxims, particularly the Tact, Sympathy, Approbation, Modesty, and Agreement Maxims. This study underscores the importance of understanding how pragmatic strategies in cinematic dialogue convey complex emotions, power relations, and social values. By addressing a gap in pragmatic research on animated films, it demonstrates that implicature and politeness violations serve as essential tools for expressing deeper interpersonal and ideological meanings. In conclusion, the study emphasizes that analyzing conversational implicature and politeness strategies is crucial for uncovering the layered dimensions of meaning embedded in cinematic discourse
