For some reason I had never seen spirited away, although howl's moving castle and princess mononoke It's one of my favorite movies ever. They had marked and influenced my teen so much that I was looking for the perfect moment so as not to do injustice to this masterpiece and appreciate it as it deserves. The rave reviews over the years had created huge expectations for me. So when I saw it yesterday, I loved it so much that not only were they all fulfilled, but even more were created for future films. I consider a film top notch when it draws you in and makes you part of its world. Now when a fantasy manages to do this, the result is enchanting. spirited away is not just a movie, it's a whole experience, a dream in places with creatures you couldn't even imagine. The smile, the tears and all the emotions it created for me were the result not only of the protagonist's journey but also of mine in this beautiful universe. Although we are talking about the ultimate fantasy film, Chihiro's character development is extremely realistic. It does not deal with the ultimate warrior against evil, but with an unassuming girl who slowly overcomes her difficulties and fears and externalizes the goodness and bravery that was hidden inside her. I love the vast imagination, visuals and design of the amazing Hayao Miyazaki and of course Studio Ghibli. This stark contrast between extremely large and small characters and their diversity is mesmerizing and what wins me over along with the atmospheric music. The only pity and a little melancholy after the end of the film was that I did not see it and unfortunately did not experience this experience as a child. PS: maybe my favorite movie photo
