Howl's moving castel

Mon, 17 Apr 2006 14:39:09 +0900

2004년도 작품이라니,,
원작이 영국 판타지 소설의 대모 "Diana Wynne Jones"의 작품이란다.
사실 처음 dvd 속 영화를 보고 다른 싸이드 타이틀을 보는데,, 그녀의 작품이라니,,
보는 내내,, 미야자키 하야오의 그전의 내용과는 사뭇틀 리다는 생각을 많이 했는데,,
역시나..

확실히 사랑에 관한 이야기다... 원작을 읽지 못해,,, 비교하지는 못하지만,
그전의 작품은 대부분 자연에 대한 포괄적인 내용이라면
이 작품은 분명 사랑에 관한 이야기 인것 같다,,

아쉬운 점이라면.. 왜 미야자키 하야오는 캐릭터의 외모를 변화 시키지 않는 걸까,,,
센과 치히로의 두 꼬마가 성장하여 사랑하는 것 같아,,, 어찌나 서운한 맘이 들던지
소피의 외모는 정말,, 다른게 하나 없는 전속배우의 얼굴과도 같다,, 무슨 살아있는 배우가
여러가지 다른 영화를 찍는 것 같이,,,

그래도,, 이번에는 그 전의 자신이 가지고 있던 많은 것 들에서 벗어난 듯 하다,,
물론 창작한 이야기가 아니고,, 탄탄한 원작을 가지고 있기도 하지만,,,
아마도 미야자키 하야오 에게는 이 작업이 꽤나 큰 모험이 아니었을까?!

ps : 아침 먹는 모습이 영국의 " English Breakfast " 와 매우 비슷하다,,
물론 커피 보다는 티를 더 선호 하겠지만,,,
그 밖의 배경은 온 유럽을 짬봉 해 놓은 것 같다,,,,
조금 맘에 들지는 않지만.. 그림 자체로는 휼륭하다.
