Princess Mononoke
Ok great cinema experience but why was there a 5 year old kid sat in front of me??? This is a student cinema not a daycare and it’s princess Mononoke not Toy Story. I only say this because it’s the kid literally started crying when ashitaka was shot and they had to leave. Cmon dude
Anyway, probably my overall favorite film ever.
The scene at the end where San and Ashitaka return the Shishigami head to its body and it falls onto them and scars their skin then it falls into the river and destroys iron town. And as the forest is destroyed the music starts to come back as the grass regrows. And Ashitaka and San have survived and Ashitaka looks down at his hand and sees the scar is fading. And the camera pans across the mountains now covered in grass it then goes down to the forest and a Kodama appears and he rattles his head and then the film ends. Yeah that’s pretty good
