If you loved Mei and the Kittenbus, try Ponyo

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Hayao Miyazaki, and they sit in Animation / Family / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Mei and the Kittenbus, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Ponyo is

A small seaside town, summer rain, a fishing boat creaks. A young boy and a magical goldfish meet on the shore, her father's powers stir in the depths. Hayao Miyazaki's gentle touch makes fantasy feel like a neighbor.
