The Boy And The Heron

The lovely new animated film <em>The Boy and the Heron</em> is the first film in 10 years from visionary Japanese filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki (<em>Spirited Away, My Neighbor Totoro</em>). The heron in question is part-heron, part-man who serves as a guide for a boy as they navigate a realm somewhere between life and death. The English dubbed version features the voices of Robert Pattinson, Mark Hamill, and Florence Pugh.
