Saw Spirited Away again this evening, this time (as long promised) with the delightful Sarita. Just as fabulous as it was the first time. Miyazaki is a god, and if you don’t know why, it’s worth the investigation…here’s the Spirited Away trailer, for starters, although in my opinion it fails to convey the kind-of-scary awe that you feel as the film explores a vacation spot for the gods of Japan. Alice has to face down Wonderland to rescue her parents, and it’s a visually stunning, hugely inventive trip. It will also make you hungry for dumplings, but that’s something else entirely.
Hmmm. Paul has been gone for about 36 hours and already I’m precessing into nocturnalism again. Not a good sign.
