Studio Ghibli starts Friday on Film4

So good I thought it was worth mentioning. On Friday afternoon Film 4 is starting a season of Studio Ghibli films, most definitely worth a watch. One or two I haven't seen before either

:

Friday 16:55 Castle Of Cagliostro

Saturday 16:45 Kiki's Delivery Service

Sunday 16:30 Princess Mononoke

Monday 16:55 Laputa: Castle In The Sky

....and more to come (but I have only checked the listings this far

)

Cool I didn't realise

Have to try to remember to set the video now

Muban · 01-08-2006, 22:33

just found the others:

Tuesday 17:10 My Neighbour Totoro

Wednesday 16:45 Nausicaa: Valley of the Wind

Thursday 17:15 Porco Rosso

Don't worry too much if you miss one it looks like they are putting them on again repeated at the same time the week efter

Gotcha. I'd heard of (but never seen) one or two of them, but didn't make the connection.

Anyone want to make a pick as to which one(s) might be best to watch for an anime n00b?

I've only seen Princess Mononoke and Spirited Away and they're both fantastic films.
