I love that one too!
I agree with you there. It’s always true with the very best of stories. I have seen Spirited Away many times.
Awesome! The takeaway messages from it are so important. I’ve watched this movie many times.
I did see it. Just last night in fact. It was so good I just had to share it. Thanks for sharing. I’ll be sure to check it out;)
Did you see it then? One of my very favorite Ghibli/Miyazaki movies. I did a write-up on it here:
