If you loved Princess Mononoke, try Il mio vicino Totoro
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
Both films are directed by Hayao Miyazaki, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem mood tags, and they sit in Animation / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Princess Mononoke, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Il mio vicino Totoro is
Rural Japan, spring, a moving truck. Two sisters and their father settle into a new home near a hospital, trees looming with giant presences. This gentle fantasy is best watched on a lazy Sunday morning.
