When I visited the Ghibli Museum in Tokyo last year, I found out that the museum actually has special short movies made specifically for the viewing pleasure of museum guests (a surprisingly exclusive group, given how popular the museum is). These shorts are on monthly rotations and visitors are limited to one screening per visit, so it’s especially hard for a person to see everything on show. When I was there, the current offering was Koro’s Big Day Out, a charming colour-pencil short about a puppy who follows a schoolgirl out of the house one morning and winds up getting lost and having a grand adventure on the streets of suburban Tokyo. In some ways, that short reminds me of Isao Takahata’s My Neighbours the Yamadas. While both undoubtedly have great style and animation, on top of being pretty darn cute to boot, they lack much of the drama, excitement and sophistication that define the studio’s better works. That’s not to say that there’s anything wrong with a small-scale adventure that’s just plain cute, but if you’re a Ghibli fan, this isn’t necessarily the best way to convince your friends that these films are really as great as you say they are.
