June 11 movie: Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind. Georg has already written about this so I'll just add that it was wonderful. The far future, sort of science fiction setting really played to Miyazaki's strength at creating fantastic, magical worlds. As Georg mentioned I did notice some visuals in common with Princess Mononoke. Notably the failed resurrection of the Giant Warrior reminded me visually of the death of the Spirit of the Forest in Mononoke. And as Alicia pointed out, we were bemused by the random glimpses of Nausicaa's bare behind. I keep telling myself that she was wearing cream colored leggings under that short skirt!
