Finally, after two years since its Japanese release, FROM UP ON POPPY HILL is close to getting an international release. We can now share the trailer for the English dubbed version, and despite dubbing usually being a bad thing, Studio Ghibli films are usually treated with a lot of respect. FROM UP ON POPPY HILL is a coming of age romance, reminiscent of Ghibli’s work such as ONLY YESTERDAY and OCEAN WAVES, rather than their fantasy efforts. It is the second feature of Goro Miyazaki, the son of legendary filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki. Check out the trailer below.
FROM UP ON POPPY HILL will get a US release on 15th March 2013. It stars the vocal talents of Gillian Anderson, Bruce Dern, Beau Bridges, Jamie Lee Curtis, Jeff Dunham, Christina Hendricks, Sarah Bolger, Ron Howard, and Emily Osment.
