[Totally Non Sumo] Spirited Away

[Joe Kuroda <joe_kuroda@yahoo.com>]

Hopefully I may be forgiven to post this during a
between bashos lull.

Currently there is a limited showing in North American
theaters of Hayao Miyazaki's truly brilliant "Spirited
Away". 

If you are intrigued by the mysticism and
juxtaposition that sumo represents you will love
"Spriited Away". 

I saw it in Japanese (at a theatre and on DVD) so I
really am not sure about this English version courtesy
of Disney but watching the animation alone is worth
the price of admission but the story is magical. 
 
Of course I have been hooked to Miyazaki since "My
Neighbor Totoro" and "Princess Mononoke", so I will
admit I am _a bit_ biased. But the film is the all
time box office king in Japan even dethroning
"Titanic" and was the first full feature animated film
ever to win the Golden Bear Awards at the Berlin
International Film Festival.
