isao takahata died earlier this month, of Grave of the Fireflies fame!

Grave of the Fireflies is easily one of the best movies ever, and most important. If you have not seen it--see it tonight, or tomorrow morning.



Isao wrote and directed Grave of the Fireflies.



It was part of the portfolio of movies by Isao Takahata who died a few weeks ago. Together with Miyazaki they created memorable movies. Isao was 82 years old.


Disney was the distributor in the late 80s early 90s but they did not do a great job of distributing them onto the screen. In recent years they have done a better job. They originally did not distribute Grave of the Fireflies.

If you see this movie you will most likely never forget it.
