Perhaps because some of the themes deeply resonated with me, I also believe this film is a masterpiece. It\u0026#39;s rather mature storyline dealing with the individual\u0026#39;s perspective on self-worth, which in the end get resolved through adult\u0026#39;s understanding the problems of children as well as the ability of children to push past their fears, is so relevant to today\u0026#39;s world that I found it a remarkably moving film. It is so unlike most films being made - i.e, at the beginning, I felt the pacing was verging on Carl Dreyer, slowly letting the story unfold, but keeping me totally absorbed because the film was telling its story at its own pace - let alone most animated films these days. This is a pretty unique visionary film and I am glad that it can be produced by Studio Ghibli."},"link":[{"rel":"edit","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/24969765\/8102159396059123448\/comments\/default\/4402051458243678229"},{"rel":"self","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/24969765\/8102159396059123448\/comments\/default\/4402051458243678229"},{"rel":"alternate","type":"text/html","href":"http:\/\/ghiblicon.blogspot.com\/2015\/04\/when-marnie-was-there-japan-and-us.html?showComment=1433085682016#c4402051458243678229","title":""}],"author":[{"name":{"$t":"Joe Muszynski"},"uri":{"$t":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/profile\/02067878210230770967"},"email":{"$t":"noreply@blogger.com"},"gd$image":{"rel":"http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail","width":"21","height":"32","src":"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-rmdFpVc9R08\/VHCROcT9qcI\/AAAAAAAAA2I\/n3AEqRMIyuM\/s1600\/*"}}],"thr$in-reply-to":{"xmlns$thr":"http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0","href":"http:\/\/ghiblicon.blogspot.com\/2015\/04\/when-marnie-was-there-japan-and-us.html","ref":"tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24969765.post-8102159396059123448","source":"http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24969765/posts/default/8102159396059123448","type":"text/html"},"gd$extendedProperty":[{"name":"blogger.itemClass","value":"pid-996554725"},{"name":"blogger.displayTime","value":"May 31, 2015 10:21 AM"}]},{"id":{"$t":"tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24969765.post-5932089686583279967"},"published":{"$t":"2015-05-23T11:25:27.474-05:00"},"updated":{"$t":"2015-05-23T11:25:27.474-05:00"},"title":{"type":"text","$t":"Christoph, I just re-watched Marnie and, though in..."},"content":{"type":"html","$t":"Christoph, I just re-watched Marnie and, though in my previous comment I called it merely \u0026#39;decent\u0026#39;, I think I\u0026#39;ve developed a more thorough appreciation after seeing it a second time, and I think I may be leaning toward your description of the movie as a masterpiece.

I\u0026#39;m not even a fan of the direct translated title, \u0026quot;Chie the Brat.\u0026quot; It sounds too much like \u0026quot;Dennis the Menace,\u0026quot; and I\u0026#39;m not a fan of \u0026quot;A the B\u0026quot; titles.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u0026quot;Jarinko Chie\u0026quot; is perfectly fine, thank you very much. The title refers to how Chie\u0026#39;s meathead father shouts at her. \u0026quot;Her, brat, get over here!\u0026quot; That sort of thing. It doesn\u0026#39;t describe her character, like Dennis or Bart Simpson (to cite examples). For any US release, I would have to insist on the actual Japanese title, and not any Westernized or Disneyfied alterations."},"link":[{"rel":"edit","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/24969765\/1277371121437606321\/comments\/default\/7195612635546526627"},{"rel":"self","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/24969765\/1277371121437606321\/comments\/default\/7195612635546526627"},{"rel":"alternate","type":"text/html","href":"http:\/\/ghiblicon.blogspot.com\/2015\/04\/panda-kopanda-chie-gauche-sherlock-blu.html?showComment=1429808750794#c7195612635546526627","title":""}],"author":[{"name":{"$t":"daniel thomas"},"uri":{"$t":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/profile\/01406180871529775448"},"email":{"$t":"noreply@blogger.com"},"gd$image":{"rel":"http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail","width":"32","height":"32","src":"\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/-xGsbK0k42n0\/AAAAAAAAAAI\/AAAAAAAAJU8\/eigGI1O_8F8\/s512-c\/photo.jpg"}}],"thr$in-reply-to":{"xmlns$thr":"http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0","href":"http:\/\/ghiblicon.blogspot.com\/2015\/04\/panda-kopanda-chie-gauche-sherlock-blu.html","ref":"tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24969765.post-1277371121437606321","source":"http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24969765/posts/default/1277371121437606321","type":"text/html"},"gd$extendedProperty":[{"name":"blogger.itemClass","value":"pid-754760810"},{"name":"blogger.displayTime","value":"April 23, 2015 12:05 PM"}]},{"id":{"$t":"tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24969765.post-8639547042901674262"},"published":{"$t":"2015-04-23T09:37:56.562-05:00"},"updated":{"$t":"2015-04-23T09:37:56.562-05:00"},"title":{"type":"text","$t":"francois, I have watched the entire series from th..."},"content":{"type":"html","$t":"francois, I have watched the entire series from this torrent, but the subtitles are kind of crude, since the guy who made them probably didn\u0026#39;t have complete knowledge of Japanese.

This doesn\u0026#39;t simply imply that such characters are really gay or lesbian; it\u0026#39;s just a shading and understanding, a personal experience on the part of gay authors, that influences their work.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWhether it was intentional or not, many viewers have interpreted a gay-friendly angle to When Marnie Was There.

And if so, what does that mean?\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EPerhaps we are simply learning to empathize with those who are gay or lesbian. We watch these images of teenage friends, their moments of awkwardness, of trusting, of longing, and we are reminded of our own early romances. Again, overreading the situation is a very real possibility. But there was definitely something there in that trailer. There\u0026#39;s a spark in the animation, a wink and a nod.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIn any case, these are topics and themes worthy of discussion. Movies are often like that. They inspire and pull and push us in many directions at once, not just the direction of the story itself."},"link":[{"rel":"edit","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/24969765\/8102159396059123448\/comments\/default\/8628598376926776100"},{"rel":"self","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/24969765\/8102159396059123448\/comments\/default\/8628598376926776100"},{"rel":"alternate","type":"text/html","href":"http:\/\/ghiblicon.blogspot.com\/2015\/04\/when-marnie-was-there-japan-and-us.html?showComment=1429704641910#c8628598376926776100","title":""}],"author":[{"name":{"$t":"daniel thomas"},"uri":{"$t":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/profile\/01406180871529775448"},"email":{"$t":"noreply@blogger.com"},"gd$image":{"rel":"http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail","width":"32","height":"32","src":"\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/-xGsbK0k42n0\/AAAAAAAAAAI\/AAAAAAAAJU8\/eigGI1O_8F8\/s512-c\/photo.jpg"}}],"thr$in-reply-to":{"xmlns$thr":"http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0","href":"http:\/\/ghiblicon.blogspot.com\/2015\/04\/when-marnie-was-there-japan-and-us.html","ref":"tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24969765.post-8102159396059123448","source":"http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24969765/posts/default/8102159396059123448","type":"text/html"},"gd$extendedProperty":[{"name":"blogger.itemClass","value":"pid-754760810"},{"name":"blogger.displayTime","value":"April 22, 2015 7:10 AM"}]},{"id":{"$t":"tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24969765.post-6124680706725149937"},"published":{"$t":"2015-04-21T22:15:33.283-05:00"},"updated":{"$t":"2015-04-21T22:15:33.283-05:00"},"title":{"type":"text","$t":"I\u0026#39;m super excited to get this!"},"content":{"type":"html","$t":"I\u0026#39;m super excited to get this!"},"link":[{"rel":"edit","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/24969765\/8636423249643033678\/comments\/default\/6124680706725149937"},{"rel":"self","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/24969765\/8636423249643033678\/comments\/default\/6124680706725149937"},{"rel":"alternate","type":"text/html","href":"http:\/\/ghiblicon.blogspot.com\/2015\/04\/umi-ga-kikoreru-i-can-hear-seaocean.html?showComment=1429672533283#c6124680706725149937","title":""}],"author":[{"name":{"$t":"Brian Ackley"},"uri":{"$t":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/profile\/13972751780320806595"},"email":{"$t":"noreply@blogger.com"},"gd$image":{"rel":"http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail","width":"32","height":"32","src":"\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/-J8AaLzybEdc\/AAAAAAAAAAI\/AAAAAAAAABo\/4tLNYMveSX8\/s512-c\/photo.jpg"}}],"thr$in-reply-to":{"xmlns$thr":"http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0","href":"http:\/\/ghiblicon.blogspot.com\/2015\/04\/umi-ga-kikoreru-i-can-hear-seaocean.html","ref":"tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24969765.post-8636423249643033678","source":"http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24969765/posts/default/8636423249643033678","type":"text/html"},"gd$extendedProperty":[{"name":"blogger.itemClass","value":"pid-261547547"},{"name":"blogger.displayTime","value":"April 21, 2015 10:15 PM"}]},{"id":{"$t":"tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24969765.post-8669404654528752508"},"published":{"$t":"2015-04-21T21:00:15.517-05:00"},"updated":{"$t":"2015-04-21T21:00:15.517-05:00"},"title":{"type":"text","$t":"I feel it is a cultural difference.

I think people in the US are, on average, much less heteronormative than the Japanese, so we are more likely to consider a gay subtext as valid. From my understanding, gay romances in Japan are generally either deemed entirely unacceptable or are highly fetishized; there doesn\u0026#39;t seem to be much of a middle ground in which a committed, gay relationship becomes acceptable.
