Thank God for my class for making me watch this film because holy shit i think that im gonna start to become obsessed with Miyazaki's works more and more. This film is just packed with so much depth and culture and storytelling u kno? Its visually magnificent to say the least and i love the subtle classical orchestraic score. I thought that it was possible that the whole film is just Mahito is just coping with the death of his mom and it just goes to show that every single one of us handle grief in different and sometimes odd ways. Its also cool to me that Miyazaki used like birds to he shown as "villains" but at the same time they're really not since in another perspective, the birds are just put there against their will in a way? and they just have to do whatever it takes for them to survive soo yeah. The fact that this film is also the closes thing to being Miyazaki's auto-biography is so cool. Apparently his dad was also like an executive of a factory that made jet parts back in the war and Miyazaki was ashamed of that since the age of 4 or something. WELL THE MORE YOU KNOW! I LOVE FUN FACTS AND MOVIES THAT MAKE ME THINK.
