1 Week of Movies - Saturday: Rail of the Star
I wasn’t sure what to write for the blog so I decided to use our massive movie collection as creativity fodder. That’s what spun this idea: Review one movie, something really good that people may not have heard of or seen, and do this every day for a week. It gets a post on the blog every day, you get to read a good review and it tries my ability to commit to something and follow through. Join me as I introduce you to a movie I saw some time ago that I can say even made me cry at parts.
Rail of the Star
Based off an autobiogripfical Novel by Chitose Kobayashi, this anime follows the life of Chitose (or Chiko to her friends) as she grows up during World War 2. Living in Korea as a Japanese girl, Chiko learns about life in the hardest of ways. Her father gets drafted for the war and while he’s away her younger sister dies. (A tearjerking moment indeed.) In the end the family makes for their escape to South Korea - That which is occupied by the US.
