Howl was the very first Miyazaki Directed Studio Ghibli film I ever watched, and Honestly can say, I have no clue why I waited so long. The film is based around our main character Sophie Who has been cursed by a witch and in her travles to find a way to break it comes across highly powerful and equally Eclectic wizard named howl. Although this movie was obviously made for a younger audience it doesn’t leave us in the older audience out of the equation.
The curse that Sophie has put on her by the witch Affects our appearance making her look like an old woman, hence reflecting on the outside how she feels about herself on the inside. This message is definitely one that can be understood by all ages. There can be moments in time where we feel a lot older than we are and sometimes that can hinder the way we perceive ourselves. There can be moments in time where we feel a lot older than we are and sometimes that can hinder the way we perceive ourselves. And although we have our own way of thinking and perceiving ourselves sometimes it takes the observation of some one else to make you realize you’re worth.
Overall this movie was amazing. The artwork was amazing the animation was amazing the music was amazing and to boot Howl himself was voiced by none other than Christian Bale (Batman in the Dark Knight trilogy). So do yourself a favor whether you buy it or stream it watch this movie it will not disappoint.
