35 Years of Studio Ghibli
Get spirited away at this magical cinema tribute.
Overview
If there's one thing Brisbanites like, it's watching Studio Ghibli films. Understandably, a whole heap of cinemas around town have been more than happy to oblige, hosting their own events dedicated to the Japanese animation house over the years. Now it's Palace James St's turn, screening 15 Ghibli favourites between Thursday, September 10–Sunday, December 19.
As part of the 35 Years of Studio Ghibli program, fans will get yet another chance to catch these Japanese gorgeous features on the big screen — in their original Japanese-language, English-subtitled versions. Yes, you should make like a moving castle to see Howl's Moving Castle this time. And yes, you'll feel like you've been Spirited Away once again.
Both of the above films are on the lineup, as are everything from Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, My Neighbour Totoro, Kiki's Delivery Service and Princess Mononoke to Tales from Earthsea, Ponyo, The Wind Rises and The Tale of the Princess Kaguya. Each film will screen twice, on Thursdays at 6.30pm and on Sundays at 2pm.
If you've missed these flicks in their limited cinema runs or fest appearances in the past, consider this your chance to catch up (with tickets costing $15 per session, or $12 for Palace members). Check out the Spirited Away trailer below to get in the mood, too:
