Évaluation de Kuba_D
After having succeeded in Europe, the master of spy films, Alfred Hitchcock was invited to Hollywood by David O. Selznick in the year 1939. This time the director reached for a novel 'Rebecca' by Daphne du Maunier. It is a story of a young woman (Joan Fontaine), who becomes a second wife of a British lord (Laurence Olivier), and his residence she meets with the cult of Rebecca. Rebecca was the lord's previous wife and she has died in very peculiar circumstances.
Film cost more than a million dollars. And it was matter of conflict between the creator and the producer. But it gathered more than 10 Oscan nominees and two Oscars for the best movie and cinematography. Selznick himself was quite surprised by the piece of art. He decided to produce the movie only due to the fact that the final scene of fire reminded him of the fire of Atlanta in 'Gone with the Wind'.
This master psychological thriller opened a new chapter in Hitchcock's works, making him the Hollywood's master of manipulating with mood.

A master story - ambiguous, multi-level, fascinating and both visually and musically beautiful.
Awarded with an Oscar surrealistic story from the Japanese master of the genre ('Princess Mononoke') was likely compared with 'Alice in Wonderland'. Truly, the main character is a little girl who gets into a world populated by strange creatures and ruled by mysterious laws. However this is where similarities end.
10-year-old Chihiro - a girl, to be honest, quite spoiled and whimsical, is on her way with her parent to her new place of accommodation. At one time the father who is driving, decides to take a short-cut through the forest, drives through an odd tunnel and the whole family lands in a strange place that resembles an abandoned entertainment park. Meanwhile Chihiro ends up in an enormous bath-house which is a place of relaxation for all the ghosts of the world. She is threatened that she will be turned into an animal and eaten at the nearest ghost feast. Having that as an alternative, she decides to work in the bathhouse...
It sounds a bit eccentric and it in fact is (I must add that I really simplified the main plot of the film). "Sen to Chihiro no kamikakushi" mostly resembles a dream (or a fantasy taken out of a child's mind) and it is like a suggestive dream and arbitrary in its solutions. The characters here change both shape and identity. Magical power shows up and disappears. Everything has its own soul and it lives equally in the real and the phantom world. Beauty and grotesque ugliness, or charm and fear are not opposites in here. They adjoin each other by an inch and create a feeling of that wacky world's unity. It is an exotic experience and it is rather not for babies.
