Night on the Galactic Railroad: Directed by Gisaburô Sugii, Arlen Tarlofsky. With Mayumi Tanaka, Chika Sakamoto, Junko Hori, Ayumi Ishijo. Two kittens go on a metaphysical journey on a magical railroad train.

“Gisaburo Sugii sure has had a eclectic career, starting out with childrenu0026#39;s fare like Jack and The Beanstalk. Here he takes Kenji Miyazawau0026#39;s childrenu0026#39;s story and creates a living atmosphere. While highly detailed backgrounds are nothing new for anime, u0026quot;Night on the Galactic Railroadu0026quot; combines its finely crafted images with a brilliant use of frame shots, pacing, and audio montage to create a surreal and ethereal viewing experience. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIf I tell you that this is the same guy who did Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie you wouldnu0026#39;t believe it, right? Well it is the same person. But this is without any doubt his best film. I have never had such an experience with an animated movie before (I particularly dislike most of anime) but this was enlightening. A must see.”
