Hey guys, please do me a huge favor and hit the LIKE button. That's all I ask - it helps out the channel a lot!
LOve to see your take on Miyazaki's film antagonists(Princess Mononoke, Porco Rosso and Spirited Away). In an interview, when asked about bad guys in his films, he said, he wants the kids to know that "the world is not black and white." All the quote-unquote bad guys in the mention three movies become likeable and kind of hero.

@@chauanandranamchoom5755 Just an FYI, if you didn't already know, there's a four part Miyazaki documentary on the NHK world website. NHK World > On demand > Documentaries. It's free and has subtitles. 4x50 minutes. It covers his production of Ponyo, Poppy Hill and The Wind Rises, and he talks about how his mother inspired him to write the lead in Nausicaa (which became his template for all his protagonists) and of course about his themes and method, and view on life.

Thanks this was really helpful. I like that idea of having protagonists and antagonists progressively become stronger against each another. Please keep making more of these.

Satyajit Ray wrote ET's script. Sadly he never got the credit for it.
