My Neighbor Totoro

This film is produced by Hayao Miyazaki. This story is in Japan in 1958. A university professor and his two daughters, Satsuki and May, move into an old house in rural, because their mother is in the hospital near here. There are mysterious creatures called Susuwatari in the house and Totoro in a mountain behind their house. Only young people can see them, that is to say, Satsuki and May can see them. Susuwatari can’t live in the house in which someone lives, so Susuwatari moves out. Satsuki meets Totoro at a bus stop when she waits her father. She lend her umbrella to him, because it rain heavily. Totoro gives a package of acorns in return. After she sows acorns in her garden, Totoros come here and pray that acorns grow well. Acorns grew well and were big trees. Satsuki and May go to top of the trees with Totoros, and they wake up. They don’t understand whether it was a dream, but they sprout up.
I am usually impressed after I watch this film.

The Pianist

I will tell you about The Pianist which is produced by Roman Polanski. The film won the Palme d’Or at the 2002 Cannes Film Festival and the Academy Awards for Best Director, Best Actor and Best Adapted Screenplay. This film is based on things that Władysław Szpilman experienced in Warsaw. When Nazi Germany goes to war against Poland, He is a famous Polish Jewish pianist working at Warsaw radio. Nazi Germany occupy Warsaw and Jews are forced to live in a ghetto by them. Jews’ life is threatened. One day SS take Jews to a concentration camp, but he escapes thanks to his friend. He is engaged in forced labor in ghetto. When he come out of ghetto in order to buy food and see an old friends, he determines to escape from ghetto. After he escaped, Warsaw Uprising happens. As a result, Warsaw is in ruins. When he lives alone in Warsaw, he is discovered and forced to play the piano by an officer of Germany. The officer comes regularly to give him foods. The Second World War ends shortly afterwards.

I think it is very marvelous that the misery of the war contrasted sharply with the grace of the piano.
