Guillermo del Toro - STUDIO GHIBLI MASTERCLASS
In this archival recording from 2013, visionary filmmaker Guillermo del Toro joins TIFF Programmer Noah Cowan on stage for an intimate and wide-ranging conversation about legendary animator Hayao Miyazaki. This talk was held in conjunction with a special screening of Castle in the Sky - projected on film, no less - del Toro’s personal favourite among Miyazaki’s films. With his trademark passion and insight, del Toro explores what sets Miyazaki apart from his peers. The conversation touches on the unique emotional and visual language of Studio Ghibli, the profound influence of anime on western storytellers, and the deeper philosophical currents running through Miyazaki’s work.
