Chihiro!

Chihiro,

we're almost there.

This really is the middle of nowhere.

I'll have to shop in the next town.

It'll be great, once we get used to it.

Look, there's the school.

That's your new school, Chihiro.

It doesn't look so bad.

I liked my old school...

Mommy...

My flowers died.

No wonder, the way you clung to them.

A little water when we get there and they'll perk right up.

My very first bouquet is farewell flowers, how sad.

What about that rose you got for your birthday?

One rose isn't a bouquet.

You dropped your card.

I'm opening the window.

C'mon now, behave yourself.

It's a big day for all of us.

Hey... Did I take the wrong turn?

I don't get it.

That must be it, look.

It must be that blue one over there.

That's it!

I must've missed the turn-off.

I bet this road'll get us there.

This is always how you get us lost.

Just a little farther, OK?

What are those little houses?

They're shrines. People pray to them.

Daddy, are we lost?

We're fine, we've got 4-wheel drive.

Sit down, Chihiro.

You're going to kill us!

A tunnel?

What's this strange building?

Must be the entrance.

Honey...

Let's go back, honey.

Chihiro.

No...

It's just plaster.

This building's pretty new.

The wind's going in.

What is it?

Let's have a look!

There's a way through.

It's creepy! Daddy, let's go back!

No need to be scared.

Just a little farther, OK?

The moving van will get there before us.

So, let 'em, they've got the keys.

Let the movers move us!

I know, but...

No! I won't go!

Daddy, let's go back!

Nothing to be scared of.

I won't go!

Chihiro, you wait in the car.

Mommy!

Wait!

Watch your step.

You'll make me trip, Chihiro, clinging like that.

Where are we?

Say, do you hear that?

It's a train!

Maybe we're near the station.

Let's go and find out.

What are those houses doing here?

I knew it.

This must be an abandoned theme park.

They built so many in the early '90s, but

they all went down with the economy.

This must be one of 'em.

What! No!

Let's go back, Daddy!

C'mon!

Mommy, that building is moaning.

It's just the wind.

What a lovely spot!

We should've brought our lunch with us.

They were making a river.

Hey, you smell that?

See, it smells great.

You're right!

Maybe they're still open.

Hurry up, Chihiro.

Wait for me!

This way!

Can you believe it, they're all restaurants.

Where is everybody?

Over there!

Hey, hey!

In here, here!

How amazing!

Hello, anybody here?

Come in, Chihiro, it looks delicious.

Hello!

Don't worry. We can pay them when they get back.

You're right!

That one looks great...

I wonder what this is called?

Delicious! Chihiro, taste it.

I don't want to!

Let's go! They're gonna be mad at us.

Don't worry, you've got Daddy here.

I've got credit cards and cash.

Take some, Chihiro. It's so tender.

Mustard.

Thank you.

Mommy!

Daddy!

Weird...

There's a train!

You're not allowed here! Go back!

Wha...?

It's almost night!

Leave before it gets dark!

They're lighting the lamps. Go!

I'll distract them.

Get back across the river!

What's his problem?

Daddy!

Daddy, let's go home!

Let's go, Daddy!

Daddy!

Mommy!

Mommy!

It's water!

This can't be...

I'm dreaming, dreaming!

Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!

Wake up...

It's just a dream! A dream!

Go away! Disappear!

Disappear!

I can see through!

It's a dream, it's got to be!

Don't be afraid, I'm a friend.

No, no, no!

Open your mouth and eat this!

Unless you eat something from

this world, you'll vanish.

No!

Don't worry.

It won't turn you into a pig.

Chew it and swallow.

Good girl, you're fine.

See for yourself.

I'm back again...

You see?

Now come!

What about my mom and dad? They

didn't really turn into pigs, did they?

You can't see them now, but you will.

Quiet!

It's looking for you.

There's no time! Let's run!

I... I can't stand! Oh, no!

My legs don't work.

Calm down. Take a deep breath.

In the name of the wind and

the water within thee...

Unbind her!

Get up!

Hold your breath while we're on the bridge.

Even a tiny breath will break the spell,

and the attendants will see you.

I'm scared.

Be calm!

Welcome!

Always nice to see you!

Welcome, welcome!

I'm back from my task.

Welcome back, sir.

A deep breath...

And hold...

Welcome back!

We missed you!

Hang on, we're almost...

Master Haku!

Where have you...

Wha...

A human?

Run!

What...

Master Haku, Master Haku!

Chase after it!

A human intruder!

I smell humans!

The stench of humans!

They know you're here.

I'm sorry, I took a breath.

No, Chihiro, you did very well.

Listen and I'll tell you what to do.

Stay here, and they'll find you.

I'll distract them.

In the meantime, you escape.

No, don't go!

Stay with me, please!

You have no choice, if you want to survive here.

And save your parents, too.

So they did turn into pigs...

I wasn't dreaming...

Be still...

When things quiet down, go out by the back gate.

Take the stairs, all the way down.

Until you reach the boiler room,

where they stoke the fires.

Kamaji's there, so look for him.

Kamaji?

Ask him for work.

Even if he refuses, insist!

If you don't work, Yubaba will

turn you into an animal.

Yubaba?

You'll see. She's the sorceress who rules our world.

Kamaji will turn you away, trick you into you

leaving, but keep on asking him for work.

It'll be hard work, but it will give you a chance.

Then even Yubaba can't harm you.

OK.

Master Haku, Master Haku!

I have to go. Remember, Chihiro, I'm your friend.

How do you know my name?

I've known you since you were small. My name is Haku.

Here I am!

Master Haku, Yubaba wants you.

I know.

It's about my task.

Um...

Excuse me.

Um...

Um, are you Kamaji?

Um, Haku sent me here.

Please let me work here!

Darn, all at once...

Get to work, you little runts!

I'm... Kamaji.

Slave to the boilers that heat the baths.

Step on it, boys!

Um, please let me work here!

I've got all the help I need.

The place is full of soot.

Plenty of replacements.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Please wait!

Outta the way!

Um... What should I do with this?

Do I just leave it?

Finish what you start!

Hey, you runts!

Wanna turn back into soot?

And you, watch it!

You can't just take someone's job.

If they don't work, the spell wears off!

Got no work for you here!

Look elsewhere!

You sootballs got a problem?!

Get to work! To work!

Chow time!

What? You guys at it again?

Cut it out!

Where's your bowl?

I keep telling you to leave it out.

Meal time!

Take a break!

A human! You're in trouble!

They're having a fit about it upstairs.

That's my granddaughter.

Granddaughter!?

Says she wants to work, but I've

got all the help I need.

Would you take her to Yubaba?

The girl can handle her, I'm sure.

Not a chance!

And risk my life!?

Take this, then. A roasted newt.

Real quality!

If you want to work, you'll have

to make a deal with Yubaba.

Might as well try your luck.

Fine! You there, follow me!

Can't you even manage a "Yes ma'am" or "Thank you"?

Hayao Miyazaki

Hayao Miyazaki (宮崎 駿, Miyazaki Hayao, born January 5, 1941) is a Japanese film director, producer, screenwriter, animator, author, and manga artist. A co-founder of Studio Ghibli, a film and animation studio, he has attained international acclaim as a masterful storyteller and as a maker of anime feature films, and is widely regarded as one of the greatest animation directors. Born in Bunkyō Ward of Tokyo, Miyazaki expressed interest in manga and animation from an early age, and he joined Toei Animation in 1963. During his early years at Toei Animation he worked as an in-between artist and later collaborated with director Isao Takahata. Notable films to which Miyazaki contributed at Toei include Doggie March and Gulliver's Travels Beyond the Moon. He provided key animation to other films at Toei, such as Puss in Boots and Animal Treasure Island, before moving to A-Pro in 1971, where he co-directed Lupin the Third Part I alongside Takahata. After moving to Zuiyō Eizō (later known as Nippon Animation) in 1973, Miyazaki worked as an animator on World Masterpiece Theater, and directed the television series Future Boy Conan. He joined Telecom Animation Film/Tokyo Movie Shinsha in 1979 to direct his first feature films, The Castle of Cagliostro in 1979 and Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind in 1984, as well as the television series Sherlock Hound. Miyazaki co-founded Studio Ghibli in 1985. He directed multiple films with Ghibli, including Castle in the Sky in 1986, My Neighbor Totoro in 1988, Kiki's Delivery Service in 1989, and Porco Rosso in 1992. The films were met with commercial and critical success in Japan. Miyazaki's film Princess Mononoke was the first animated film to win the Japan Academy Prize for Picture of the Year, and briefly became the highest-grossing film in Japan following its release in 1997; its distribution to the Western world greatly increased Ghibli's popularity and influence outside Japan. His 2001 film Spirited Away became the highest-grossing film in Japanese history, winning the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature at the 75th Academy Awards and considered among the greatest films of the decade. Miyazaki's later films—Howl's Moving Castle, Ponyo, and The Wind Rises—also enjoyed critical and commercial success. Following the release of The Wind Rises, Miyazaki announced his retirement from feature films, though he returned to work on a new feature film in 2016. Miyazaki's works are characterized by the recurrence of themes such as humanity's relationship with nature and technology, the wholesomeness of natural and traditional patterns of living, the importance of art and craftsmanship, and the difficulty of maintaining a pacifist ethic in a violent world. The protagonists of his films are often strong girls or young women, and several of his films present morally ambiguous antagonists with redeeming qualities. Miyazaki's works have been highly praised and awarded; he was named a Person of Cultural Merit for outstanding cultural contributions in November 2012, and received the Academy Honorary Award for his impact on animation and cinema in November 2014. In 2002, American film critic Roger Ebert suggested that Miyazaki may be the best animation filmmaker in history, praising the depth and artistry of his films. more…
