    The Boy and the Heron

    ★★★★★

    a movie released in midst of secrecy. 

    the most philosophical ghibli film to date, and one of Miyazaki’s intimate confessionals of being an artist. What is hope and why do we hope? 

    myth-making brought to a whole new level.

    and when the ending credit rolls in, just like that, like the blowing out of a candle, miyazaki bids us farewell.

    Happy Together

    ★★★★½

    "I finally arrived at the end of the world in January 1997. This is the last lighthouse on southernmost America, after that is the South Pole…I promised Fai to leave his sadness here, I didn't know what he said that night. The recorder seems to be broken, I can't hear anything but some strange noises which may be someone's sobbing."
