The animations of Japans Studio Ghibli are amongst the highest regarded in the movie industry. Their delightful films rank alongside the most popular nonEnglish language films ever made, with each new eagerlyanticipated release a guaranteed boxoffice smash. Yet this highly profitable studio has remained fiercely independent, producing a stream of imaginative and individual animations. The studios founders, longtime animators Isao Takahata and Hayao Miyazaki, have created timeless masterpieces. Although their films are distinctly Japanese their themes are universalhumanity, community, and a love for the environment. No other film studio, animation or otherwise, comes close to matching Ghibli for pure cinematic experience. All their major works are examined here, as well the early output of Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata, exploring the cultural and thematic threads that bind these films together.
