Goro Miyazaki’s From Up On Poppy Hill Up For The Oscars
If you don’t like me, just say so.
Studio Ghibli’s 2011 offering, From up on Poppy Hill (コクリコ坂から), has been submitted for a consideration as an Oscar nomination. This film, which runs for about 90 minutes, was made from a father-and-son collaboration. The great Hayao Miyazaki (宮崎 駿), together with Keiko Niwa, worked on the film’s script while Goro Miyazaki (宮崎 吾朗), Miyazaki’s son, directed the movie.
From up on Poppy Hill takes place in a 1960’s time frame of Japan – the time when the country was preparing itself to host the Olympics. Keep Reading
