Adapted from the manga of the same name by Hayao Miyazaki, which is in turn based on a short story by Tatsuo Hori, a writer, poet and translator from mid-20th century Japan. Kaze Tachinu (The Wind Rises) is a fictionalised biography of Jiro Horikoshi, designer of the Mitsubishi A6M Zero fighter aircraft which served in World War II.
ah! this looks so good. Can’t wait to see the master’s latest.
Hi, Have you seen this trailer? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqstYTuvbcs#at=32
Gosh! Awesome!
Marion Cotillard The Immigrant!
This montage alone is a masterpiece. Thank you movie God…
My life is currently a countdown until I get to see this.
Were you guys hacked?? lol
Really looking forward to this movie. Horikoshi is voiced long time friend of Miyazaki, Hideaki Anno, creator of the famed anime Neon Genesis Evangelion.
Indeed creator of the seminal masterpiece! Two masters collaborating. Also eagerly awaiting the fourth and last installment of REBUILD EVANGELION –EVENGELION: FINAL. I’m pretty sure it won’t open until 2014 tho :/
Man, these folks really have a hard time holding on to their hats. Also, the painter girl is bleeding from her mouth/nose? WTF? The earthquake sequence was masterful.
