Miyazakiworld: A Life in Art by Susan J. Napier | Goodreads

PEDRO ALMODóVAR: INSTALLATION/INSTALACIóN DELMONICO BOOKS/ACADEMY MUSEUM OF MOTION PICTURES ISBN: 9781636810195The Boy and the Heron has autobiographical features. The protagonist, Mahito Maki, is modeled after Miyazaki's childhood. Miyazaki's father, similar to Mahito's, was employed by a company involved in the manufacturing of fighter plane components. Additionally, Miyazaki's family had to evacuate from the city to the countryside during the war. [3] [a] The hospital fire at the beginning of the film evokes personal parallels with Miyazaki's own loss of his mother, [5] who was known for her strong opinions and is believed to have been a source of inspiration for several of the director's female characters, and Mahito's emotional connection with his mother parallels Miyazaki's deep affection for his mother. [6] The BBC defined the film as "a coming-of-age tale in which a child must overcome his selfishness and learn to live for others." [7] She is a girl with heart of a gold that connects her to the nature- the forests and its many dwellers. She can talk to them (of sorts) and feel their pain. She is princess of Valley of the Wind. Sounds familiar? But wait, this does not even begin to describe what her character really is. For she is not your typical Disney princess who sings and dances, or a damsel in distress waiting for price charming. She lives in an ugly world where even a puff of air from wrong direction could mean an end to her little country. She has a destiny that may ruin her forever, or it might not be a destiny at all but a whim of foolish headstrong girl listening to the creatures of the world gone wrong. She is the one who has to stand firm and rally for cause that she even doesn't fully understand. It will require courage and battles. But her courage and battles will not be of swords and guns alone; she might be the only hope in hopeless world. Along her journey she will come across some amazing cast of characters each of which may have a spin-off books of their own adventures. Such a strong characterization doesn't come easy in fantasy world, let alone graphic novels. Girls & Panzer das Finale Film Opens at #4". Anime News Network. October 16, 2023 .

Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind: The Complete Series Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind: The Complete Series

The second book continues the journeys of Nausicaä as she finds her own answers and has to decide how much she is willing to sacrifice for the stupid human race who continue to do stupid things. Did that sound bitter? Let me ask you how many times do you think that some war machine from any number of countries has discovered something potentially dangerous and immediately wondered how they can use it to wipe out everyone that is not them. In this world where humanity had basically wiped out their world in seven days with the help of god warriors it seems history is not one of their strengths as those of power seek to repeat the past. After all it might not have worked the first time but we are smarter now right? Right?August 23, 2023). "「君たちはどう生きるか」Dolby Vision/Atmosをどう活用した? 宮﨑監督も気に入ったHDR". AV Watch (in Japanese).

The environmentalism and spirituality takes on much more meaning. It has an interesting Dune-vibe. The giant worm-like creatures, the barren planet, the religion, the messiah figure (I love how Nausicaä is a female messiah).
