What is your favorite film written/directed by Hayao Miyazaki, and why?
Although I think Spirited Away is Miyazaki's best film, Nausicaä will always be my favorite. It was the first Miyazaki film I ever saw, and it completely changed the way I thought about animated film and Japanimation (as it was called in those days). That film also has some of the most memorable music of all his films, as I was reminded when a local classical radio station recently played a suite of songs from the film. I recognized the melodies straightaway, even though I haven't seen the film in years.
