The movie "Spirited Away" is a fascinating anime film directed by the creative Hayao Miyazaki and co-director Kirk Wise. This film captures bravery, and love for the young. It has the classic story baseline "Home, Away, Home." The plot is about a young girl moving to a new neighborhood, though when her parents take a wrong turn down the road they unknowingly become lost in a spirit world that is inescapable until she proves her bravery to all. You are introduced to so many characters that you wouldn’t see in American films. I feel as if Japanese films have so much meaning behind the story that you can truly learn so much from the character by the end of the film. When I first saw the movie in theaters I was in middle school, and I thought it was horrible because I never seen a movie with this type of animation. I was very confused and uninterested. Then I watched it in my Art of Film class and loved it. I was more open-minded to the Japanese version and I was completely drawn to the story line. I found the way they shot certain scenes were more exciting from when I saw the film as a kid. I was finally able to understand the morals of the story.
