As we quickly approach the American release of Hayao Miyazaki’s latest film, The Wind Rises, it’s time once more for Mousterpiece Cinema to wade into the past of Studio Ghibli. This week, Gabe and Josh focus their sights on Howl’s Moving Castle, with two special guests: Simon Howell of The Televerse and Andrew Daar of This Was TV. Both guests are huge Miyazaki buffs, and Josh is well-known for not being an ecstatic fan of every Miyazaki film. BUT. If you think you know where this conversation is going, trust us, you don’t. Unless you presume this conversation is heading down tangential avenues, talking about Jeff Daniels, Werner Herzog, and Poochie the rappin’ dog. In that case, you’re right. But still! Listen to the show, because you won’t know for sure until you hear it, not just read it in a description.
Listen here!
