Castle In The Sky

The anime or animation film, Laputa: Castle in the Sky, is one of Hayao Miyazaki's film launched in the United States in the 80s; the film takes its distant inspiration from a novel by Jonathan Swift, Gulliver's Travels, where Laputa is a floating island peopled by superior creatures. The tale of this castle in the sky reminds once more that people have a fascination for the sky and what waits out there so little accessible to us if deprived of technologies. The plot follows the search for a hidden flying city camouflaged behind clouds; to some characters this makes pure fiction, while others seek to find the secret place. Laputa: Castle of the Sky has many secrets to reveal!Castle In The SkyA parallel Earth with a different history is the setting for Laputa: Castle in the Sky, as none of the geographical data presented in the movie can be matched with our reality. We know that the action takes place sometime between the middle of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. The creator of the film imagined a very complex documentation for the castle in the sky and the history is pretty elaborate given the fact that it is pure fiction. Thus, hegemonies follow one another over other aerial cities, then, Laputa, normally governed by a royal family, has been several times abandoned, not to mention that details about the connections between Laputans and earthlings abound.When he created the image of the castle in the sky, Miyazaki found inspiration in the architecture of a mining Welsh town, and this model was used for the design of the buildings of Laputa. The release on video and DVD took place only in 2003 as the project had been postponed several times before. During that year, Laputa: Castle in the Sky turned into the second-best selling DVD distributed by Disney after Spirited Away. Castle In The SkyThere are several discrepancies between the original and the English dub, but the effect of Laputa: Castle in the Sky was not lower by such differences. The music in the film sounds different so as to make the animation more accessible to wider audiences since Westerners are usually expecting rich or substantial musical support as part of the accompaniment. Moreover, the producers of the film agreed with the changes although some fans opposed some of the decisions. In Japan, Laputa: Castle in the Sky received wide acclaims and several awards among which Best Film of the Year as well as Best Anime at the 9th Anime Grand Prix.
