“I don't provide unnecessary explanations. If you want that, you're not going to like my movie. That's just the way it is."
-Hayao Miyazaki, |
| Date of Birth: January 5, 1941 |
| Birthplace: Tokyo, Japan |

| Though he hates the label, Hayao Miyazaki has surely earned the title of “The Japanese Walt Disney.” As the creator of some of the most well-known anime titles on the planet, Hayao has long since established himself as a talented, prolific and flat-out brilliant filmmaker. |
 |
| Hayao Miyazaki is the driving force behind such anime blockbusters as Princess Mononoke and Spirited Away -- the latter of which is widely considered the most recognizable anime in the history of the genre -- and there’s little doubt that his films will continue to endure well into the future. |
 |
Following the huge critical and commercial success of Princess Mononoke, Hayao stunned the film community by announcing his retirement. Fortunately for his fans, Hayao didn’t stay away for too long and emerged in 2001 with what is arguably his most accomplished achievement to date: Spirited Away.
Revolving around the exploits of a little girl who stumbles upon a magical universe inhabited by a whole host of mystical creatures, Spirited Away quickly became a worldwide smash, topping the box office in Japan and eventually winning the 2002 Academy Award for Best Animated Feature -- the first anime to win the prize.
Hayao’s son Goro is set to follow in his father’s footsteps and has just released his first effort, Tales of Earthsea, in Japan. |
