My Neighbour Totoro
Hayao Miyazaki's masterpiece works its magic in high-definition...
It may lack the scope of Princess Mononoke or Spirited Away, but My Neighbour Totoro is every bit their equal in terms of pure storytelling and unbridled imagination – it remains one of the most iconic and affecting films in the Studio Ghibli pantheon. Unlike some previous releases in the range, …Totoro hasn't had all of its native grain filtered out, resulting in a much more authentic look for this hi-def incarnation. Audio comes in LPCM stereo Japanese or English options, while extras include a picture-in-picture storyboard mode, numerous short interviews with the Japanese filmmakers and the US voice cast, plus a selection of trailers.
