“Since founding Studio Ghibli in 1985, Miyazaki has produced a series of highly acclaimed animated movies, many of which star strong and independent girls or young women who use their wits and courage to save the day. Miyazaki’s films range from fanciful ones such as “Kiki’s Delivery Service” and “Ponyo” appropriate forvery young children to ones like “Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind” or “Princess Mononoke” which address darker themes such as war and environmental degradation and, as such, are more appropriate for older children and teens. His film “Spirited Away” won the 2002 Academy Award for Best Animated Feature Film, and Miyazaki was honored with a special Honorary Academy Award in 2014 for having “deeply influenced animation forever, inspiring generations of artists to work in our medium and illuminate its limitless potential.” Source -- source link
