UW Film Club Podcast #76: Howl’s Moving Castle

“They say that the best podcast burns brightest when circumstances are at their worst.”

Continuing Piper and Natalia’s introductory dive into Miyazaki oeuvre, we take a trip to 2004 with Stephanie’s favorite Miyazaki film ‘Howl’s Moving Castle.’ In this podcast we talk about the intricate and beautiful display of animation, the staunch anti-war themes and how that work or does not work with the love story, whether the ending is ironic, and the intricate way the film explores self-love and what motivates self-hate. Does love truly conquer all? Find out our 76th episode!

On this episode: Cynthia Li, Stephanie Chuang, Natalia Owen, and Piper Coyner
