The Best Film of 2005 on DVD

I now understand why Disney held off on releasing the DVD of "Howl's Moving Castle" until today - it was to get my mind off the Oscars by recalling what true movie magic is like. This is as creative and beautiful as filmmaking gets, and its message doesn't hit you over the head like some other movies (ahem, "Crash").

It's a lovely, stirring, breathtaking work of art. So to the three people reading this, please do rent "Howl's Moving Castle" sometime. You'll be in for a treat. And if you've never seen an anime before, try to keep an open mind.

Here are some pictures for ya.
