Where Miyazaki really began to take full flight as a moviemaker, however, was with the launch of his own firm, Studio Ghibli in 1985. Over the next 30 plus years, Miyazaki created a series of films that are stunningly beautiful to watch, filled with gripping, mysterious, wide-eyed stories that, like manga, are accessible to everyone. Put your grandmother in front of the TV and have her watch Spirited Away (2002), and I am pretty sure you will find she gets as swept up in it as your four-year-old. And you? You probably already love Miyazaki, so you’ll love it as much as they do.
