Whisper of the Heart (1995) with Stephen Hilger (Into the Aether)
Country roads, take us home! Of the many, many movies that use the famous John Denver song, who would've expected the DEFINITIVE one to be about about a couple kids in Western Tokyo who fall in love with a really cool cat statue?
This week our old friend Stephen Hilger of the very great Into the …
My Neighbors the Yamadas (1999) with Nik Long
Did Studio Ghibli really make a family sitcom? Kind of! It’s Isao Takahata’s second-to-last film, and we simply couldn’t resist adding it to our series.
Joining us to revel in the brilliance (and surprisingly vindictive behavior) of the man they call Paku-San (aka Mr. Munch) is our dear friend and…
Spirited Away (2001) with Stephen Hilger (Into the Aether)
Listeners, it’s time to remember your name.
We’re getting Spirited Away this week to a Studio Ghibli production that is often called the most influential animated film of all time. Joining us to help purify the stink spirits and return the river gods to their kingdom is our old friend Stephen Hilg…
Howl's Moving Castle (2004)
Howl may be the worst type of early 2000s emo hunk. But listeners…We! Can! Fix! Him!!!
This week is a real doozy. Dom and Adam are not particularly effusive about Miyazaki’s moody, dark magic sequel to SPIRITED AWAY. It’s bewildering, it’s bizarre, and some moments seem completely incomprehensible…
Ponyo (2008)
When it comes to Hayao Miyazaki, the ocean is full of mystery and calamity. But one thing is for certain: Ponyo loves ham!
This week is Miyazaki’s late-career “movie for five-year-olds” that somehow combines the terror of complete environmental catastrophe with… the joy of floating around in a can…
The Secret World of Arrietty (2010)
Finally, a movie about a Pod who casts!
This week we are putting the “mini” in miniseries for the Hiromasa Yonebayashi cottagecore classic that is equal parts HONEY I SHRUNK THE KIDS and TOY STORY.
And yes, the dad’s name is Pod and he does at one point cast out a fishing line!
Next week it’s Goro…
From Up on Poppy Hill (2011)
It’s Goro Day! This week we are going deep on the embattled, tragic, and nonetheless fascinating collaboration between Hayao Miyazaki and his fledging director son. Whatever you think of Goro’s movies, you’ve got to admit… the story of Studio Ghibli is incomplete without him!
But it’s not just the …
The Wind Rises (2013)
[Bane voice]: The wind rises!!
This week we fly with Jiro Hirokoshi and the mysterious Italian man of his dreams! It's Hayao Miyazaki's most personal film to date, featuring some of the most ravishing animation ever committed to film. And believe it or not, it's also the subject of controversy! We'…
The Tale of the Princess Kaguya (2013)
Birds, bugs, beasts, grass, trees, AND flowers? All in a single film??!
This week we take the leap of life with Isao Takahata and his final masterpiece. It’s an extraordinary work that epitomizes the Studio Ghibli philosophy… and completely shatters all expectations with its singular visual style. …
The Red Turtle (2016)
Never flip a turtle! There might be a beautiful woman inside it!!
This week we venture beyond Japan to celebrate a European (?!) co-production with Studio Ghibli. It’s a one-of-kind collaboration involving Isao Takahata and the great Dutch animator Michaël Dudok de Wit that defies all expectation… …
