Princess Mononoke. Japanese animation with a somewhat american translation.
I say somewhat because it was adapted by Neil Gaimen. The sandman guy.
Very good writer, so I've been told, very literate comic books. But
anyway, good stuff. A tale of industry vs. nature. Destiny and
determination. Self vs. group. Not exactly black and white, but many
shades of grey. I never knew arrows could do that, even in the hands
of a demon. But anyway, the animation is pretty sweet, not really
sure of when the CG kicks in, but I can take a couple guesses. A good
movie. I'd like to own it someday. |
