Kaze Tachinu (The Wind has Risen)
Original Work/Script/Director: Hayao Miyazaki
Music: Joe Hisaishi
Animation Production: Studio Ghibli

This is Hayao Miyazaki's big Summer 2013 movie. It tells the story of Jiro Horikoshi, the designer of the Zero Fighter, from the the age of 10 to the height of World War 2 - a story spanning 30 years. The fictionized biopic is also framed around a love story based on the novel of the same name (Kaze Tachinu) by Japanese novelist Tatsuo Hori.

In the novel, it tells a story of a young man and his young fiancee who dies of tuberculosis, and he returns to the village where they first met to spend his winter after her death. Based on previous interviews with Miyazaki, we know that the movie will also cover the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923. It is a large scale historical drama which will have many crowd scenes and cover various historical events.

The tagline on the poster reads "Show respect for Jiro Horikoshi and Tatsuo Hori. We must try to live."

Miyazaki-sama's back.. I'll watch definitely! Can't wait to see how he'll amazed his fans and critics! I'm so excited!!!

I'm not a big fan of most of Miyazaki's and Stiudio Ghilbi works. But I like their more serious films(except of Grave of Fireflies) so I'll give it a try.

Just letting you know that Graves of the Fireflies was not by Miyazaki but the other big Ghibli director, Isao Takahata. Personally I like Takahata better and he also directed my favourite Ghibli film of all time, Only Yesterday.

However, Ghibli being Ghibli, it will still be a decent watch at worst. So lock me in

Em. I know this. I just said that grave of fireflies is the only "serious" Ghilbi's film I don't like. I really can't understand why people like it so much. Yes, it's quite realistic drama but the only one to blame is the protagonist himself. If he won't be so stupid, none of the dramatic things would happen.
