UK release details on Cagliostro & Little Norse Prince
Paul •
Optimum Asia have sent us a press release outlining their UK DVD plans for The Castle of Cagliostro and Little Norse Prince.
- “On October 17th Optimum Asia will be releasing two anime classics directed by Hayao Miyazaki (Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke) and Isao Takahata (Grave of the Fireflies), the two visionary animators who founded Studio Ghibli. The Castle of Cagliostro, made in 1979, was Miyazaki’s first feature film – reportedly hailed by Steven Spielberg as one of the greatest adventure movies of all time. Little Norse Prince, directed by Takahata and animated by Miyazaki in 1968 was also Takahata’s directorial debut and draws on an ancient Japanese myth transposed to Scandanavian folklore.”
