Film: Howl's Moving Castle

A tip for parents: it may have a U certificate, but I wouldn't say Howl's Moving Castle is a children's film.

For everyone else: it's an interesting animated film that confuses and delights in equal measures though much of the confusion is likely cultural.

I can't make up my mind whether the film is a deep political allegory or a simple love story. Perhaps it's both. In this - and in my recommendation - it's like Belleville Rendez-Vous. Worth seeing, especially for those who enjoy a different cinema experience.
