[영어에세이] 센과 치히로의 모험-미야자키 하야오-SpiritedAway-일본 애니메이션

본문내용

Released in 2001 in Japan, "Spirited Away" stayed in theaters for almost 10 months, breaking all the previous box-office records in Japan, including that of ‘Titanic (1998)’ and ‘Princess Mononoke (2000)’ by the same director Hayao Miyazaki.
With this astonishing film about a girl's spiritual journey, Hayao Miyazaki again showed that he is one of the best directors living in the world. This animation film was also awarded several international film awards, and that is not a surprise at all, after you see this movie.
The film's story traces a girl's strange and fascinating life in another world, where her parents are accidentally and magically transformed, and she has to survice herself and return to her own world. To do so, this pudgy-faced little girl Chihiro, now deprived of her name by a greedy witch Yu-baba, has to work at the baths where gods and sprites all over Japan come to take a rest. Chihiro's life is full of wonderful (and often hard, even terrifying) things, and through her experiences she learns how to live, gaining the true will and power, changing from a sulky girl languidly lying on the backseat of a car, into a lively and truely courageous girl.
If you had watched Hayao Miyazaki’s works, there were constant messages in all his film. There were Hayao Miyazaki's gentle but pointed rejection of modern, possessive, materialism, just like our way of life in this era.
Hayao Miyazaki has been described as the one of the greatest Japanese animation directors ever and this stunningly well-textured movie is definitely his best visual work yet.
