emotionally pure,realistically innocent and subtly powerful

Rating: 10/10 (25 July 2003)

I can't explain it this movie brings back memories of my childhood, there was joy and anticipation, wonderment and exhilaration but also tears and sadness(yes it made me cry) the feeling of nostalgia is so subtly powerful as are the realistic interactions between the children Mei and San with each other as well as their elders and the Totoros that is universal regardless of gender,age and culture.Recommended to the children in all of us. Miyazaki's finest film one of the best films ever animated or not a timeless artistic masterpiece.
