The Boy and the Heron 2023
the boy and the heron encapsulates many beloved ghibli elements: beautiful animation complemented by an emotive score (god bless u joe hisaishi), a protagonist's transformative journey, adorable little creatures, a fresh take on traditional hero-villain dynamics… (i could go on). yet, these qualities do not equate to predictability, but rather a comforting nostalgia that elevates the viewing experience.
miyazaki proves he is a master auteur through his ability to deliver the ghibli magic we crave whilst providing a distinct, innovative film each time; the boy and the heron is no exception. i don’t want to reveal too much, but be prepared to enjoy yet another masterpiece.
