Shortly after reaping the rewards from his movie Spirited Away, a project that earned him an Academy Award in 2003, director Hayao Miyazaki set his sites on his next film, Howl’s Moving Castle.
Based on the novel by British author Diana Wynne Jones, Howl’s Moving Castle gave the internationally renowned director an opportunity to bring to life a fantastical time in 19th century Europe when science and magic defined the popular zeitgeist.
Veering slightly from its source material, the new Miyazaki movie nonetheless retains all the novel’s principal characters. There’s a foppish wizard named Howl, a vain witch from the wastelands, an anthropomorphic chimney fire and a young girl who carries a most unusual curse. And, of course, there’s the moving castle…a towering, omnipresent structure that dominates the landscape.
