[Roger Macy]

Ah, I stand corrected .  So twitterers are more retro than I am.  Or, at least, Ghibli fans are.
thanks,
Roger

    I've not seen the film - I was just being the messenger - Kokuriko-zaka kara, 2011, has only just reached London. .  The reports of it seem no more distorted than those on other wars rather closer to me.
    I'd be interested in reading other argued opinions.
    best,

        Maybe only old fogeys like me hadn't caught up with this, since I think that the reception of 'The Wind Rises / Kaze tachinu' may, in terms that its twitter response, have broken some world data traffic record this month - at least it's unlikely, surely, to have been in respect of 'Castle in the Sky' ?

        But it has also got some prominence, in terms of its content, at 'The Economist' and 'The Guardian'
