About the film
Set during WWII, THE BOY AND THE HERON tells the story of Mahito Maki, a young boy who loses his mother and is evacuated with his father from the city to the country to escape the ravages of war. Mahito, burdened by grief and struggling to adjust to his new surroundings, finds himself pestered by a grey heron. While pursuing the bird, Mahito is led to a strange stone tower where he discovers that the structure and the bird are gateways to a world beyond his imagination.
Having announced retirement almost a decade ago, Hayao Miyazaki instead persevered and began storyboarding THE BOY AND THE HERON in 2016 — it seemed that he had one final, fantastic story to tell. In production for nearly seven years and, allegedly, the most expensive film ever made in Japan, Miyazaki’s latest (and last) film has been hailed by critics as a masterpiece of animation filled with characters and themes that exemplify the breadth of Miyazaki’s illustrious career as one of the greatest animators and storytellers in the entertainment industry.

Written and directed by Jonathan Glazer (Sexy Beast, Under the Skin), THE ZONE OF INTEREST is a moving portrayal of a family that enjoys the “good life” while being responsible for the literal destruction of the lives of countless others. An instant hit with critics, the film was shortlisted for an Academy Award for Best International Feature Film.
Executive produced by such Hollywood luminaries as Stephen Spielberg, George Lucas, Kathleen Kennedy, and Frank Marshall, and directed by Don Bluth (The Secret of NIMH, An American Tail), The Land Before Time exists because some of the best minds in movies came together to create this beautiful and endearing 1988 film. Even though the story is set in a prehistoric age, the message it conveys still rings true in these modern times…and always will!
Hitchcock’s knack for on-location shooting, his brilliance at employing special effects, and his penchant for visualizing psyche-shattering scripts are all in evidence here, combining to make The Birds not only one of the most-unforgettable horror films, but also one of cinema history’s most-enduring movies!
Released in 2019 by A24 Studios, this film has come to be regarded as one of the best horror films of the past decade. With its beautiful cinematography by Pawel Pogorzelski, a chilling Norse-folk-inspired soundtrack by Bobby Krlic, and a one-of-a-kind script by Aster himself, Midsommar is, like its 1970’s predecessor The Wicker Man, a strange look inside the murky world pagan religious worship.
