Le Guin was ultimately happier with the Studio Ghibli adaption than the SciFi Channel one, and by a wide margin. Personally, I just thought it was cliched as hell and had nothing of it's own about it.

Have you read any Mishima ? I've read a few of his short stories in an English course that took some risks with material. Examples include a story with a suicide that takes 3 pages between cutting the carotid and the sweet release of death. That had some real impact.. I've seen 4 Chapters, but it's a hell of a ride. Enjoy.

Sorry for the temporary death of the thread. One would have thought quarantine would have had me watching loads of movies but I just haven't really been feeling it. I'll try to get to Ponyo tomorrow or Saturday

That'll make you feel better ! It's a hella sweet movie, and Tina Fey is solid as the mom.

As an addendum that I didn't want in the body of the main review itself...it fucks me up that Ponyo came out after I graduated high school.

Yeah, it's been a looooong road since then. It's a truly adorable movie all the way through, and the English voice cast did a superb job.

Also when are you getting around to "In the Realm of the Senses"? Or the Japanese New Wave in general?

This is a good movie, but it's very sexual. If you get to it post-Covid, choose your viewing partners carefully.

Interrupting a movie is a dick move. You are allowed to slap your brother silly for interrupting a classic likeYoung Frankenstein.
