>>3718597>As a result, it was a far more memorable film to me than its semi-prequel Your NameI should see that then. I've seen and enjoyed Your Name, but I'd be interested in seeing other Kon films, Your Name is the only film of his I've seen.
>I am considering visiting the original North Norfolk coast setting the book was set inI'd love to do that, especially if I were already in the UK like you! I read the book, and in the afterword of the post-movie reprints of the book, there's a blurb that discusses Yonebayashi's personal pilgrimage to Norfolk so he could get a better appreciation for Marnie's home.
>Maro-sama (Yonebayashi) most accomplished work stands to be ArriettyArrietty is another Ghibli that's criminally underrated, it's a shame not so many people have seen that film. Yonebayashi's talent seems to lie in adapting 1960's British YA novels (Arrietty, Marnie and Mary were all adapted from those sorts of books), but he's damn good at it.
