Friends From Film School Podcast - EP 65: Princess Mononoke - Can Anime Reach Universal Acclaim?
This week we conclude our journey to the East in search of becoming true Anime fans. We watch the 1997 Hayao Miyazaki classic, Princess Mononoke and tackle the question of "Can anime reach universal acclaim?" Mononoke tells the story of a young Emishi prince named Ashitaka, and his involvement in a struggle between the gods of a forest and the humans who consume its resources. The film is known for its heartfelt story, beautiful showcase of human folly, and its influence on filmmakers and fans alike. It is one of the highest grossing Japanese films of all time and a major cornerstone of solidifying anime's reputation in the West. Dive in with us as we discuss this Studio Ghibli hit and figure out if Luke and Brad will join Ellis as "true anime fans!"
