I watched it yesterday

Howl’s Moving Castle (ハウルの動く城 ) is a 2004 Japanese animated fantasy film written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki of Studio Ghibli and based on Diana Wynne Jones’ novel of the same name.

In a time of war and falsity here it is a dancing poetry against all the cruelty and pain. The moving castle leads us to a magic place where life is as simple, pure, and extremely beautiful as one’s own dreams. Also in an apparent hostility or in a scarecrow, the chance of finding a friend and not letting the dream go down never die.

The story’s highly emotional without a great deal of logic or plot to get in the way.  I find its very difficult to describe, but there’s one thing I know for sure; it is magical and beautiful.
