(Extra)Ordinary World: A Hayao Miyazaki Tribute


KuramasSweetheart's AMV is a passionate little treasure. Here's a link, since KS doesn't like embedding. If the images were anything but Miyazaki I would almost certainly find this cheesy, but since it is Miyazaki, I find it incredibly moving instead... Every flash of imagery and narrative takes me right back to the originals and reminds me of the incomparable emotional charge each one has for me. Somehow even Aurora's cover of "Ordinary World" manages to seem tender, pining, and painfully exhilarated when it's invested with Miyazaki's stunning worldview... Time to go back and watch Totoro or Nausicaa, I think.
