The absolute worst part of this clip is when the narrator switches from "Spirited Away" to a stupid American super hero movie. Fortunately, it is only for a split-second.

We watched Fellini's Satyricon in Latin class, an though everyone else found it very disturbing and weird, I thought it was very interesting from a visual point of view. I can recommend it especially for artists who need some inspiration!

Truly one of the greatest artists of the 20th Century... he belongs in the absolute highest sphere - along with, imo, Kubrick, Kurosawa, Bergman & Welles. And Giulietta Masina is my favorite actress, no doubt. Great analysis! _8 1/2_ is perhaps the greatest of all films... PS. Thank you for giving _Juliet Of The Spirits_ its proper due 🙏🏼 It's still underrated, imo!

A very different film but the same idea is found in World War Z- the original cut had action scene after action scene and it just got exhausting- they hired a couple writers who added the scene at the medical lab to just give everyone a break

I recently watched this movie with my dad, and we had an argument over the purpose of this scene, he was genuinely frustrated about why this scene existed. He did not like this scene and overall did not like the movie for a number of reasons. I pressed the issue further and we got to the point where we were discussing the fact that he is an older, "traditional" kind of man who suppresses his emotions. He said he couldn't relate to the fact that the movie is about a little girl cause he's a man, then I said "but it's also a story about being a child, you used to be a child right?". He moves the goalposts and argued about it being such a strange cartoon, and asking why it had to have all these bizarre monsters, why did the parents have to turn into pigs, etc. It was a frustrating conversation to say the least. All that aside I just wanted to say there are in fact a lot of people who fall into this category you consider imaginary. It's real and it's frustrating, and it gives validity to the existence of this video.

The movie is all about growing and maturing, which is a common subject in asian culture and japanese in particular . If you watch anime you realize that most of the times there is a pattern about characters, no matter what the story, they are concerned or interested about new generations and how they manage their rol in the world. One of things I like the most about this movie is how Miyazaki uses magic, myths or weird things, they are not only something to build the universe in the story but also to make the viewer feels like Chihiro, amused, confused, out of context, afraid, etc; it’s a metaphor of how threatening and challenging the adults world can be to the eyes of children and how they need to evolve in it. I think the most chilling thing about the train scene is that it represents the turning point of Chihiro, the transition between 2 worlds in where past, present and future all become one.

I dont think the film shows Chihiro timid winey or lazy and I do not think it intended to. If anything it shows her righteous and pure with a good heart to not steal food and be a pig - giving more reason as to why NO FACE is drawn to her in the bath house - different to all the greed and selfishness of everyone else.

I always saw the train scene as being a sort of breathing point for the film. The previous scene was a huge rush of adrenaline, with No-Face chasing Sen through the bathhouse, and the whole movie before that point is very over-bearing and stressful for Sen, since she's either being overworked or trying to help Haku. The train scene lets the audience catch their breath and just take a minute to really enjoy the scenery with no threats or hidden dangers. It's the first time in the whole movie where the Spirit Realm isn't presented as a threat, but a beautiful place.

I am so in love with this scene. Came to KZbin to watch the replay. Found this. There is no boundaries between the sky and the sea. We can see the shallow train rail. As the train steers through, the ripple can push its way gently to the end of the world. The platform, the travelers, all the routine things became so poetic. This is heaven to me.

Definitely a tough question. I know a lot of people I’ve talked to about seeing Spirited Away at a young age we’re scared by it to a degree. I definitely have fond memories of it from a very young age around the toddler to kindergarten years but everyone’s different. If you are looking to introduce it to younger kids it might be good to start with some other ghibli films like Kiki’s, Howl’s, or Porco, which is a classic in its own right.

@baongoc9889 3 жыл бұрын
Somehow this scene makes me think about time. I'm not saying "that's the meaning behind it", I'm just saying "this is what this scene means *for me*". The train feels like the track of time. Kamaji said it used to run both ways but now only a one-way train. Like society used to look back to tradition and the past, but now they just go straight forward. The lonely house on the island looks like a picture from someone memory. It slowly drifts back, contradicts with the neon signs disappear in a flash. The passengers look like shadows of people who stuck in the past. They get off the train in the middle, a memory holds them back, they cannot let go and go on to the future. Some people, like the shadow of the little girl on the station, looks like she's waiting for someone, forever waiting at that station. The magic of this scene is that it gives the audience time to slow down and think these deep thoughts. Each person will interpret it in a different way, base on their experience, and all of them are valid.

I like the train scene very much, and it is beautiful. But, I have to admit, there's something about it that makes me uncomfortable. I think it's the train passengers. They are faceless, translucent, shadow people. There is something ominous about them. All those bags, packages, and parcels mean they're not commuters, more like refugees or immigrants. Where are from, and where are they going?

I'm a film fanatic. Not really these kind of films, I love classic films personally. But I can recognize a great film and even more a perfect scene in a movie, and the "train scene" in this movie is among one of the best I have ever seen. It actually takes a moment to breathe and lets the character do something we all do on a daily basis, sit down and reflect. The feeling I get watching this scene is almost hypnotic.

People need to understand that scenes like this AND the riceball scene are to flesh out the characters, allow the audience to breathe, flesh out the world, etc. It doesn’t have to be contributing to the plot if it establishes a mood/atmosphere.
