Watched Little Miss Sunshine and Grave of the Fireflies last night with my movie group.
LMS was pretty good, the pageant was creepy bit but I think that was the point. Nice little heartwarming family story and some corpse wrangling.
GotF was intensely sad as expected. The animation is absolutely top notch and the story is super relevant to our current events of war and civilian suffering.
Grave of the Fireflies is by far my favorite Ghibli film. It's also my favorite movie I never want to watch again. When people say animation isn't real cinema or it's for kids, you know they've never experienced GotF.
Yeah the animation is top notch and the subject matter is definitely not “kids movie “. I’ve now been trying to get people to watch it, so poignant for the times we live in.
