Hayao Miyazaki is the greatest living animation direction
and he is possibly the best art director and script writer as well. Almost every scene in every movie is art we
could hang on the wall. But he also has an amazing way of allowing fresh,
exciting characters come alive on the screen.
And his films are also infused with a religious and moral philosophy
that could be studied for years.
I’ve already mentioned two Miyazaki films in the 30 Day Challenge, (Spirited
Away and Nausicaa) but another of his many great animated films is Princess
Mononoke. The themes are so rich and the animation so beautiful and dramatic…
every scene is heart stopping. This is his most adult film and most
heartbreaking and cynical. Well, as cynical as he gets. A must-see.
