(Tonari no Totoro, Hayao Miyazaki, Japan 1988, 86 min.)
Miyazaki. One of the most endearing and internationally renowned films of all time, My Neighbor Totoro is a deceptively simple tale of two girls, Satsuki and Mei, who move with their father to the countryside to be nearer to their ailing mother. The girls soon befriend a family of Totoros, gentle but powerful creatures that live in the surrounding forests. Beneath the film’s playfulness and narrative simplicity lie depths of wisdom — as with much of Miyazaki’s work, at its core this film is about humankind’s relationship to the earth.
More info, please! Will this be presented dubbed or subbed? If dubbed, which dubbing? The 1993 Tokuma release, or the 2005 Disney one?
All Miyazaki films will be shown with the English audio. I am not sure which of the dubs we are showing at this time.
No Sunday showing for My Neighbor Totoro?
Are these films shown free of cost? or is there any kind of discounts? can anyone come and watch them?
I cant wait! i grew up with tortoro sad that your not showing kiki’s!
The screenings are open to the public at standard Dryden Theatre prices. $8 to the public; $6 for students and Eastman House Members.
As above, no Sunday showing of Totoro? Would have loved to take the kids to see it on the big screen….
Sorry. We’re going to have a special showing of Princess Tam Tam that night.
Shame about the dubbing…if it can’t be helped, do your best not to go with the Disney version!
Please show Totoro on a Sunday! It would be a tragedy to deny this to the kids….
