The most magical movie of all time.

Rating: 10/10 (11 November 2006)

It amazes me how timeless this movie has become for me, not to mention the influence over the years.
There is a subtle magic in this film that stays with you for the rest of your life. For me, that magic has made this movie my #1 film. The Studio Ghibli team combined with Hayao Miyazaki are a powerful mix.
Currently I have watched almost all Miyazaki's films, heard most of their music compositions (Joe Hisaishi is a genius, writing music in the language of the soul), and have loved everything about them. My Neighbor Totoro stands out, probably because of its simplicity and way of drawing you in. It's like a return to innocence and childhood, something everyone on Earth (above 18) sorely miss.
I highly recommend watching it. Don't miss this one.
