  • The Boy and the Heron

    The Boy and the Heron
    Jan 14 2024
    We discuss Hayao Miyazaki latest animation The Boy and the Heron which is the latest Ghibli movie which was released late 2023.

    The movie is certainly different to most of Hayao Miyazaki work and we have a good old discussion about how we foudn the movie and what the meaning is for us. We certainly have differing opinions of this film.

    Please feel free to email in your thoughts to myneighbourpodcast@gmail.com and send us a 5 star review for a shout out.
