        Spirited Away

        Surreal, bizarre and beautifully strange dream-like experience. A perfect adaption from the delirious and cloudy taste of a dream, to a marvellous looking picture on the working screen. The wonderful- graphical aestetics and imagery makes this movie a fantasticle one, but it feels like someone else's personal exploration and nothing more. Its enigmatic, and what is in the creator's mind is the division and confusion of meaning. Perhaps he is trying to force something terrifying, or magical.
