Just wondering if anyone knows anything about this movie. It's an anime film by Hayao Miyazaki that was supposed to be released on video here in the US by Disney, just like they did with one of his other movies "Kiki's Delivery Service". The preview is on the Kiki tape, but Amazon says it has yet to be released. Kiki was released here several years ago...so I'm wondering if this one will ever get released.
Anyone have any info on this? My ds really wants to see it, and I must say it looks like the best of the Miyazaki movies that have been translated to English.
And for anyone who likes something a little different, I highly recommend Kiki's Delivery Service and My Neighbor Totoro. They are definitely not the kind of animation most americans are used to....there's truly a cultural difference in how the stories are told and how there are really subtle themes that run sort of under the surface. Miyazaki is considered one of the masters of anime.
I've also heard that these movies are much better in their original Japanese versions...but until I learn Japanese (and my family does as well) those versions aren't of much use to me!
