Pedro's Favorite Movies
Hotaru no haka (Grave of the Fireflies)
Unrated
A brilliant movie that is broadcasted in Japan every year on the Anniversary of Hiroshima's atomic bombing to remember people of the horrors of war. Everybody should watch this!
Spirited Away (Sen to Chihiro no kamikakushi)
PG
Hayao Miyazaki created yet another masterpiece. Chihiro, the main character, starts as a puny spoiled whiny girl, but, as she works hard and solves many challenges in Yubaba's ofuro bathhouse for the gods, she becomes a strong, smart and independent character. This movie is all about growth and change and, of course, Miyazaki's unmatched fantastic voyage into a new world. The soundtrack by Joe Hisaishi is equally fantastic and suits the mood perfectly.
