Review: Perfect Blue
I’ve just posted Martin Butler’s review of Perfect Blue, Satoshi Kon’s break through psychological thriller that was released on UK DVD by Manga Ent. a few years ago.
- “Overall, this is a cleverly-written if occasionally confusing analysis on the costs and consequences of fame and stardom. If anything can disprove the myth that animation cannot be “grown-up’ and intelligent, “Perfect Blue’ is just that. A likeable heroine, fluid and crisp animation and genuine shocks and plot twists make this film very much out of the ordinary and well worth watching.”
