Oldtaku no Radio #044 – Porco Rosso

 


Take to the animated skies (and bars and secret beach hideouts
and so much more) with Jared and Ink as they talk about Ghibli’s
1992 feature, Porco Rosso. Directed by Hayao Miyazaki, this movie
depicts a post-WWI man-turned-anthropomorphic pig – a war
pilot-turned-deserter/bounty hunter. The movie,
while warmly humorous throughout, tackles such issues
as identity, war, and fascism. Listen in to find out how (and how
effectively)!
