    Always in Miyazaki's shadow, but never anything less than his equal, Isao Takahata crafted 5 unique and gorgeous films that couldn't have been made by anyone else. Join us as we discuss Takahata's final gift of a film, 2013's The Tale of Princess Kaguya.

    The Wind Rises

    Fitting swan song or disappointing biopic? Join us as we discuss Hayao Miyazaki's final movie to date, 2013's The Wind Rises, a film which eschews a fantastical setting but retains Miyazaki's love of flight and examines his own drivers of obsession and perfection.

    From Up on Poppy Hill

    Chirpy high school romcom or a post-war mystery with themes of incest. Por que no los dos? On this episode we discuss Goro Miyazaki's confused 2011 period pic From Up On Poppy Hill.

    Arrietty

    Can a movie succeed purely on clever design choices and strong animation? That's what drives our conversation about Arrietty, Hiromasa Yonebayashi's debut 2010 film. Tune in to see whether we find this version of Mary Norton's 'The Borrowers' tasteful or boring.
