I've had this movie for years, but never watched it because it doesn't sound like a good idea.

Did you watch it after you had heard about its emotional impact on other people? I think that reviews, spoilers and just the general feeling that earlier audiences have can sometimes creates a bias, whether it is positive or negative, that can color our view in the end.

I saw it when I knew absolutely nothing about it and none of my friends had even heard of it. It definitely hit me pretty hard, but the funny thing is that the beginning basically gives away the ending.

When that came out it was actually a double-feature with My Neighbor Totoro. That's quite a shift in tone.

It caused me to be an utter wreck when I watched it.

I believe Roger Ebert called it the best Anti-War film ever made.

Ive never heard anyone say that before, not even elementary school teachers who have seen the film and are surrounded by children all day. Its not for everyone, I guess.

You hate a child acting like a child? I'm assuming you're trolling, but holy fuck.

Spoilers:

Fuck the aunt. Sure the boy was naive, thinking he could get by without the aunt living alone by basically playing "house" outside but that aunt was just genuinely a horrible person. She look pleasure in bullying her niece and nephew who had nothing.

He did.i personally think it's a movie everyone should watch one.

I also always tell people to watch it then watch the first five minutes again. I didn't cry after finishing it but wanted to see the beginning scene again and as soon as the music started it was over.

It's a little more nuanced than that. She also had her own family she was taking care of and the expectation was that everyone would work hard to earn the meager rations they had. It's not really that anyone is a terrible person, it's people making decisions in a terrible situation.

You know you are in for a treat when the movie opens with a couple of kids dying of starvation in a train station.

move all remaining groundhog mercenaries to the front lines. Have sheep troopers squadrons A and B flank the cows. They're using DC-17 hoof blasters.

Doesn't matter. The dub is well performed.

If you liked it, you should watch the rest of the Ghibli films made by Takahata Isao.

Grave of the Fireflies is the only one that's not criminally underrated.

Just ordered the Blu-ray on Amazon. Can't wait. Been on a bit of a sad binge since I watched Flavors of Youth.
