“Hayao Miyazaki, a cinematic giant”
Never heard of him.
Miyazaki is regarded as one of the greatest animated film-makers of all time. He’s picked up at least one Academy Award for “Spirited Away” and he’s been nominated for a couple of others.
He really is one of the titans of cinema. Right up there with Kurosawa, quite frankly.
Miyazaki is a GOD among men. His works have inspired countless artists and professionals.
I highly recommend ‘Princess Mononoke’ (Billy Bob Thornton, Claire Danes, and Billy Crudup do voices in the English release), ‘My Neighbor Totoro’ and ‘Spirited Away’ just to start. His works are unbelievably well done.
