Anime: Porco Rosso

A pig that does not fly is just a pig ... I'd rather be a pig than a fascist.

It is obvious that all the work of Hayao Miyazaki teacher is highly recommended. The kids enjoy it. Large praise it. While working toward his eyes multiplied after Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke years ago and Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind were also praised. But between his films with fewer reflectors, however, has shades of greatness: Porco Rosso, our recommendation of the week.

The lives of Porco Rosso (the "red pork") basically is about to conquer the sky with a red dress, elegant, while skillfully and loneliness. It is a little courage to flaunt scale and friends scale. Gina, meanwhile, is his great friend and confidante, who runs a hotel awaiting the arrival of love. And Flo, that being beautiful and skillful is the epitome of free-spirited woman, subject to their own will.

With those ingredients, Miyazaki builds a story of adventure and romance, true to its historical and cultural references: the World War II, flying machines, European society. True to its ethical-emotional axis, friendship, courage, forgiveness, battles between good and evil.

Mizayaki is a genius for conveying complex emotions easily and Porco Rosso is no exception. In this film manages to break the screen with metaphors of companionship, longing for the good times, and much respect to women: in fact, the catapult positively boring without gender discourses.

Watch Porco Rosso is now approaching an almost vanished world where honor, truth and heroism are admirable virtues, not a fairy tale that is only found in the world of Disney.

His favorite movies Mizayaki with because they are interesting candidates to be in the comments. My favorite, if you ask me, Princess Mononoke is still today see it as monumentally powerful and raw, just as sublime and profound. In @ alanlzd we can talk.
