Anpan's Friend

Well, I've got this friend...

At least Anpan tries to be discreet about such things. :D

This past Sunday, we had a chance to see "Wolf Children Ame & Yuki" on the big screen as part of the Hawaii International Film Festival. It came out earlier this year in Japan, but this was the US debut.

We're fans of Mamoru Hosoda's work like "Summer Wars" and "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time", so we had somewhat higher expectations. This film did not disappoint - it was just that good. I'm glad we had a chance to see it on the big screen -- because there are so many little details you'd probably miss while watching on a smaller TV screen.

Are there any movies you'd ♥ to see on the big screen? New or old? :D

Personally, I'm hoping the three Madoka Magica movies will make it to the Hawaii International Film Festival's Spring showcase. :D
