Appreciation of Spirited Away Specialty

Miyazaki Hayao, an outstanding Japanese animation master.

Miyazaki Hayao made many popular cartoons. From Valley of the Wind, City of the Sky, My Neighbor Totoro and the Witch's Home Delivery in the 1980s to Ghost Princess in 1997, not only did it create a box office success, but the fresh and natural scenes in Miyazaki Hayao's works were vivid, and the wonderful fairy tales were deeply engraved in our hearts, which brought us both visual and spiritual shocks.

However, there was a whirlwind in Miyazaki Hayao recently. This whirlwind of Gong Laodoyen, which has been waiting for a long time, is extremely terrible, shaking the circle of games, animation, comics and movies. Especially in the film industry, Miyazaki Hayao won the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival in February this year with his latest cartoon "Spirited Away"! It seems that even Disney's The Lion King has never won such an honor, which shows that the strength of Gong Yi's animation industry is already the top level in the world.

The Story of Spirited Away tells the story of a little girl (about ten years old) Chihiro and her parents who got lost in the forest, crossed a mysterious tunnel and entered a small town. It is strange that there is no one in the whole town. Chihiro's parents saw a store with a lot of fresh food, so they couldn't resist the temptation and ate like crazy. Chihiro feels very uneasy here. Seeing that her parents were only interested in eating, she had to wander around by herself.

It was getting dark, and Chihiro suddenly saw many ghosts and monsters in the town. She was so scared that she went to see her parents. When she found her parents, she was even more surprised to find that they had all become pigs. The helpless Chihiro can only escape, and her body is slowly disappearing. Fortunately, I met a young white dragon on the road. Bailong told Chihiro that this is the city of gods, and only monsters and immortals from all walks of life are received. Humans cannot come in. If they unfortunately come in, the only way to live is to work here and get the permission of the witch "Don". Chihiro managed to get the terrible Tang to agree to give her a job, but as usual, Tang was deprived of her name by magic and became a member of the town, named Chihiro.

During her work, because of her naive and kind personality, she became friends with Ling and helped tide over the difficulties together.

One day, Chihiro came across a badly injured little white dragon and found that it was actually the incarnation of a young little white dragon. Because he was instructed by Tang to steal the treasure of Tang's sworn enemy and twin sister's money, he was chased by money. Money turned Tang's favorite child into a mouse in a fit of pique. In order to save Bailong, she promised to help Tang save her son and asked Tang to change her parents back into human beings. After Tang agreed, he took the treasure stolen by Bailong to find his mother-in-law, and returned it. Bailong also apologized to Qian. In fact, money is not as terrible as others think, but a reasonable old lady, so everything goes smoothly.

Finally, Tang finally let their father and daughter go and finally left the town. Chihiro's parents still don't know what happened. They completely forgot about this town, but Chihiro turned thoughtfully and looked behind him, recalling those thrilling and bizarre things not long ago. ...

Generally speaking, Spirited Away can be regarded as a comprehensive Miyazaki Hayao film.

The clean and beautiful picture style in the film is still very comfortable to look at, and with the perfect combination of digital photography, 2D animation and 3DCG, the colors are more gorgeous and the levels are more distinct.

The description of the characters is also very delicate and vivid, especially the lovely face of Chihiro, the protagonist, which is very pleasing.

The outstanding performance of an animation in visual effect can be regarded as the foundation of its success.

The film lasts for two hours, which is also rare in animated films. When I watched Spirited Away, I didn't feel impatient at all except for the excellent picture factors, because the plot was very attractive.

From the time when father and daughter walked into the mysterious tunnel to the appearance of monsters and money, it can be said that there are many mysteries and it is easy for people to get involved. Even at the end of the film, some puzzles are not specified, leaving the audience to associate themselves. In fact, this is Miyazaki Hayao's modus operandi.

In Miyazaki Hayao's historical works, we can see that he himself is very advocating nature. This time, behind Spirited Away's fairy tales, do you want to tell everyone that there is an unknown world around our living space? Will human beings always be ignorant and insignificant in front of nature?

Finally, by the way, this movie broke the box office record of Titanic in Japan and became the highest-grossing movie in Japan. Worth a look
