But Mei, today Father is at the university.
350
00:
42:53,820 -- 00:42:57,480
You promised to be a good girl at Granny's.
351
00:
42:59,780 -- 00:43:04,340
I still have two more classes
and Granny's too busy for this...
352
00:
43:04,450 -- 00:43:09,320
She was good up 'til now, right?
353
00:
43:16,840 -- 00:43:19,710
Granny, I'll go and speak with the teacher.
354
00:
43:25,100 -- 00:43:29,769
Since Satsuki's mother is in the hospital,
355
00:
43:29,770 -- 00:43:32,600
I want you all to be nice to her.
356
00:
43:39,450 -- 00:43:41,029
What's that?
357
00:
43:41,030 -- 00:43:42,540
It's Totoro.
358
00:
43:43,990 -- 00:43:45,949
You have to be quiet.
359
00:
43:45,950 -- 00:43:47,110
Okay.
360
00:
43:57,420 -- 00:43:59,960
Bye bye, Mei-chan!
361
00:
44:00,300 -- 00:44:02,420
Tell them I'm going to skip the club today.
362
00:
44:02,510 -- 00:44:03,929
We'll let the teacher know.
363
00:
44:03,930 -- 00:44:05,179
See you!
364
00:
44:05,180 -- 00:44:06,400
Bye bye!
365
00:
44:07,230 -- 00:44:09,059
Mei, let's hurry. It's going to rain!
366
00:
44:09,060 -- 00:44:10,220
Okay.
367
00:
44:17,900 -- 00:44:19,660
Ah, here it comes!
368
00:
44:31,620 -- 00:44:32,630
Here.
369
00:
44:36,500 -- 00:44:39,200
I won't cry. Am I a good girl?
370
00:
44:41,470 -- 00:44:44,040
Yes, but what a problem.
371
00:
44:46,180 -- 00:44:49,630
Dear Guardian Spirit, please let us
share your roof for a little while.
372
00:
45:33,190 -- 00:45:34,470
But...
373
00:
45:54,870 -- 00:45:57,120
Good thing. Right, Sis?
374
00:
45:57,975 -- 00:46:00,370
It's got holes in it.
375
00:
46:11,850 -- 00:46:14,389
Father forgot his umbrella.
376
00:
46:14,390 -- 00:46:16,200
I'm going, too.
377
00:
46:19,360 -- 00:46:21,319
I said I forgot it!
378
00:
46:21,320 -- 00:46:24,870
What idiot forgets his umbrella on a rainy day?
379
00:
46:25,150 -- 00:46:26,830
Ouch!
380
00:
46:26,910 -- 00:46:29,119
You broke it while playing around, I bet.
381
00:
46:29,120 -- 00:46:30,650
I did not!
382
00:
46:43,760 -- 00:46:45,430
Excuse me.
383
00:
46:47,390 -- 00:46:49,719
Oh, Satsuki. And Mei-chan, too.
384
00:
46:49,720 -- 00:46:51,420
Granny!
385
00:
46:52,560 -- 00:46:54,139
Thank you for today.
386
00:
46:54,140 -- 00:46:56,479
You're welcome. It wasn't much.
387
00:
46:56,480 -- 00:46:59,729
Kanta lent us this umbrella.
388
00:
46:59,730 -- 00:47:01,939
Really? That kid?
389
00:
47:01,940 -- 00:47:03,819
A broken old thing like that!
390
00:
47:03,820 -- 00:47:06,109
Mei was with me, so I was glad.
391
00:
47:06,110 -- 00:47:10,119
But Kanta got wet.
Thank you very much.
392
00:
47:10,120 -- 00:47:11,239
That's all right.
393
00:
47:11,240 -- 00:47:15,000
He's always so dirty anyway,
he must have gotten a little bit cleaner.
394
00:
47:15,330 -- 00:47:16,869
Are you off to meet your father?
395
00:
47:16,870 -- 00:47:17,539
Yes.
396
00:
47:17,540 -- 00:47:19,300
What good girls you are.
397
00:
47:19,500 -- 00:47:21,169
Bye bye, Mei-chan.
398
00:
47:21,170 -- 00:47:22,370
Bye bye!
399
00:
47:32,510 -- 00:47:34,349
Who was that?
400
00:
47:34,350 -- 00:47:35,570
I don't know.
401
00:
47:39,810 -- 00:47:41,800
There it comes.
402
00:
47:54,830 -- 00:47:56,300
Are you getting on?
403
00:
47:57,540 -- 00:47:59,570
All right, drive on.
404
00:
48:07,760 -- 00:48:09,879
Father wasn't on it.
405
00:
48:09,880 -- 00:48:12,009
He'll be on the next one.
406
00:
48:12,010 -- 00:48:14,250
Do you want to wait at Granny's house?
407
00:
48:50,220 -- 00:48:51,640
What's wrong?
408
00:
49:23,460 -- 00:49:24,740
Mei.
409
00:
49:25,170 -- 00:49:26,640
Are you sleepy?
410
00:
49:27,300 -- 00:49:29,169
That's why I asked you...
411
00:
49:29,170 -- 00:49:31,370
Want to go to Granny's house now?
412
00:
49:33,340 -- 00:49:35,750
It won't be much longer.
Hang in there.
413
00:
49:41,520 -- 00:49:44,010
The bus is sure coming late.
414
00:
49:51,820 -- 00:49:52,890
Come on.
415
00:
51:16,530 -- 00:51:17,750
Totoro?
416
00:
51:27,710 -- 00:51:29,630
Ah, just a minute.
417
00:
51:35,130 -- 00:51:36,580
I'll lend you this...
418
00:
51:37,840 -- 00:51:40,140
Take it, Mei's slipping off.
419
00:
51:46,350 -- 00:51:48,150
Hold it like this.
420
00:
53:04,970 -- 00:53:06,380
The bus is coming!
421
00:
54:13,710 -- 00:54:17,200
Totoro took Father's umbrella...
422
00:
54:30,430 -- 00:54:32,099
Ah, sorry, sorry.
423
00:
54:32,100 -- 00:54:33,720
All right, drive on.
424
00:
54:33,890 -- 00:54:37,590
The train was late and I missed the bus.
425
00:
54:37,770 -- 00:54:39,510
Were you worried?
426
00:
54:39,940 -- 00:54:42,279
It came! Father, it came! It came!
427
00:
54:42,280 -- 00:54:44,489
A cat, a cat bus!
428
00:
54:44,490 -- 00:54:45,710
What?
429
00:
54:45,860 -- 00:54:47,619
It was huge!
430
00:
54:47,620 -- 00:54:49,659
With big eyes like these!
431
00:
54:49,660 -- 00:54:51,710
It was wonderful!
432
00:
54:52,620 -- 00:54:56,950
We met him! We met Totoro!
433
00:
54:57,250 -- 00:54:59,240
How wonderful!
434
00:
55:10,390 -- 00:55:11,560
Come on.
435
00:
55:19,169 -- 00:55:22,920
Mother, it feels like my heart is still racing.
436
00:
55:22,940 -- 00:55:27,010
It was the scariest, funniest day I've ever had.
437
00:
55:27,020 -- 00:55:30,430
Totoro gave us a lovely present...
438
00:
55:30,440 -- 00:55:34,810
...wrapped in bamboo leaves
and tied with dragon whiskers.
439
00:
55:34,910 -- 00:55:37,529
At home, we opened it.
440
00:
55:37,530 -- 00:55:40,170
It was full of magic nuts and seeds!
441
00:
55:44,670 -- 00:55:47,805
We decided to plant them
in the garden
442
00:
55:47,806 -- 00:55:49,999
to make a lovely forest.
443
00:
55:50,000 -- 00:55:50,810
But...
444
00:
55:50,811 -- 00:55:52,759
They haven't sprouted yet.
445
00:
55:52,760 -- 00:55:57,580
Every day, Mei says
"Still nothing, there's still nothing."
446
00:
55:58,470 -- 00:56:02,510
She's just like the crab
of the monkey-crab fable.
447
00:
56:07,310 -- 00:56:09,229
It's nearly summer vacation.
448
00:
56:09,230 -- 00:56:14,180
Dearest, dear Mom,
get well soon. Love, Satsuki.
449
00:
56:17,070 -- 00:56:20,976
Come on. Bed time.
450
00:
56:23,000 -- 00:56:23,869
Lights off!
451
00:
56:23,870 -- 00:56:25,280
Wait!
452
00:
56:25,830 -- 00:56:28,840
Father, do you think they will come out tomorrow?
453
00:
56:28,960 -- 00:56:34,250
Well, I'm sure Totoro would know. Good night.
454
00:
57:23,060 -- 00:57:24,220
Mei!
455
00:
57:42,130 -- 00:57:43,669
That's where we planted the seeds.
456
00:
57:43,670 -- 00:57:44,560
Yeah.
457
00:
59:16,390 -- 00:59:18,770
We did it!
458
01:
00:34,180 -- 01:00:36,469
Mei, we're the wind!
459
01:
00:36,470 -- 01:00:37,440
Yeah!
460
01:
01:37,780 -- 01:01:39,340
The tree is gone.
461
01:
01:44,330 -- 01:01:46,660
We did it!
462
01:
01:49,380 -- 01:01:50,656
It was a dream.
463

Hayao Miyazaki

Hayao Miyazaki (宮崎駿, Miyazaki Hayao, born January 5, 1941) is a Japanese film director, producer, screenwriter, animator, author, and manga artist. A co-founder of Studio Ghibli, a film and animation studio, he has attained international acclaim as a masterful storyteller and as a maker of anime feature films, and is widely regarded as one of the greatest animation directors. Born in Bunkyō Ward of Tokyo, Miyazaki expressed interest in manga and animation from an early age, and he joined Toei Animation in 1963. During his early years at Toei Animation he worked as an in-between artist and later collaborated with director Isao Takahata. Notable films to which Miyazaki contributed at Toei include Doggie March and Gulliver's Travels Beyond the Moon. He provided key animation to other films at Toei, such as Puss in Boots and Animal Treasure Island, before moving to A-Pro in 1971, where he co-directed Lupin the Third Part I alongside Takahata. After moving to Zuiyō Eizō (later known as Nippon Animation) in 1973, Miyazaki worked as an animator on World Masterpiece Theater, and directed the television series Future Boy Conan. He joined Telecom Animation Film/Tokyo Movie Shinsha in 1979 to direct his first feature films, The Castle of Cagliostro in 1979 and Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind in 1984, as well as the television series Sherlock Hound. Miyazaki co-founded Studio Ghibli in 1985. He directed multiple films with Ghibli, including Castle in the Sky in 1986, My Neighbor Totoro in 1988, Kiki's Delivery Service in 1989, and Porco Rosso in 1992. The films were met with commercial and critical success in Japan. Miyazaki's film Princess Mononoke was the first animated film to win the Japan Academy Prize for Picture of the Year, and briefly became the highest-grossing film in Japan following its release in 1997; its distribution to the Western world greatly increased Ghibli's popularity and influence outside Japan. His 2001 film Spirited Away became the highest-grossing film in Japanese history, winning the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature at the 75th Academy Awards and considered among the greatest films of the decade. Miyazaki's later films—Howl's Moving Castle, Ponyo, and The Wind Rises—also enjoyed critical and commercial success. Following the release of The Wind Rises, Miyazaki announced his retirement from feature films, though he returned to work on a new feature film in 2016. Miyazaki's works are characterized by the recurrence of themes such as humanity's relationship with nature and technology, the wholesomeness of natural and traditional patterns of living, the importance of art and craftsmanship, and the difficulty of maintaining a pacifist ethic in a violent world. The protagonists of his films are often strong girls or young women, and several of his films present morally ambiguous antagonists with redeeming qualities. Miyazaki's works have been highly praised and awarded; he was named a Person of Cultural Merit for outstanding cultural contributions in November 2012, and received the Academy Honorary Award for his impact on animation and cinema in November 2014. In 2002, American film critic Roger Ebert suggested that Miyazaki may be the best animation filmmaker in history, praising the depth and artistry of his films. more…
