A Cursed Teenager Turns 90. Let the Adventures Begin. By A. O. SCOTT
"'Howl's Moving Castle,' freely adapted from a children's fantasy novel by Diana Wynne Jones, is the latest animated tour de force from Hayao Miyazaki, the director of, among other masterpieces, "Princess Mononoke," "My Neighbor Totoro" and "Spirited Away." Admirers of his work, which is wildly imaginative, emotionally intense and surpassingly gentle, will find much to appreciate in this film because it demonstrates, once again, his visual ingenuity and his sensitivity as a storyteller. For newcomers to his world, "Howl's Moving Castle" is a fitting introduction to one of modern cinema's great enchanters."
Uptown (1:40 4:15) 7:00 9:45
Visionary director Hayao Miyazaki's (Spirited Away) animated adventure brims with imagination, humor, action and romance. Sophie, a teenage girl working in a hat shop, finds her life thrown into turmoil when she is swept off her feet by a wizard named Howl, and is subsequently turned into a 90-year-old woman by the Wicked Witch of the Waste. Embarking on an odyssey to lift the curse, she finds refuge in Howl's magical moving castle. With Sophie's love and support, Howl risks his life to help bring peace to the kingdom. Based on the novel by Diana Wynne Jones. In English, featuring the voices of Lauren Bacall, Christian Bale, Billy Crystal, Blythe Danner, Jena Malone and Emily Mortimer.
Tickets available via MoviePhone
There's a subtitled copy available, but I'd guess that the Landmark does not have it.
