Oct 3, 2014Anime/Japanese Fairytale
Studio Ghibli adaptation of a classic Japanese folktale from Hayao Hiyazaki's mentor Isao Takahata. This is a slower, very different film than Hayao Miyazaki's, the animation designed like a traditional Japanese woodprint. Never quite soars like Miyazaki's films do but not without its charms
