Spring Peepers: Howl's Moving Castle
Welcome the unruly and enigmatic creatures of the season with Spring Peepers, an extravaganza of Studio Ghibli movies shown at Forbes Library. Grab a chair, or bring your own cushion and get comfy.
Today we're showing Howl's Moving Castle.
About the film:
A young woman named Sophie is cursed by the Witch of the Waste and is turned into an old woman who is unable to tell anyone of her plight. Unable to continue her job at her mother's hat shop, she goes to the ambulatory castle of the notorious wizard Howl and insinuates herself into his household. Sophie befriends Calcifer, the fire demon who powers the castle and who is bound to Howl by a contract, the terms of which Calcifer cannot reveal. They promise to help each other with their problems. Like Calcifer, Howl can also see through the Witch's spell, and he and Sophie fall in love. Sophie helps Howl confront his former teacher, and the Witch of the Waste.
