Director Guillermo del Toro would move to the World of My Neighbor Totoro in a heartbeat if given the chance:
If there is one thing Guillermo del Toro knows well, it is that making good movies requires one to watch good movies. The acclaimed director-writer has put their whole weight behind some of film's best movies, so you know he is watching good stuff at home. As it turns out, one thing del Toro always comes back to is anime, and the director recently admitted he'd live in one of the worlds created by Studio Ghibli's Hayao Miyazaki.
@oscars We asked Guillermo Del Toro, “If you could live inside the world of any film, what would it be?” #guillermodeltoro #MyNeighborTotoro #HayaoMiyazaki #filmmaker #movieworld #favoritefilms #mexicanfilmmaker #JapaneseAnimation #StudioGhibli #pastoralbeauty "I would live inside the world of My Neighbor Totoro. The pastoral beauty of that place. But at the same time, the fact that it's a proper house. You're surrounded by woods that are mythical and old and full of stories and spirits. Miyazaki's Ghibli films, they create skies and trees like nobody else and you can eat sushi every day," he shared.
