DVD - Millennium Actress

Click to view larger image

Millennium Actress has the stylistic sophistication of Perfect Blue with the empathy, warmth and truth of Spirited Away. A gorgeous, theatrical animation from the makers of anime classic Perfect Blue and last years' adorable Tokyo Godfathers. Millennium Actress begins as a TV crew track down 70 something screen goddess Chiyoko Fujiwara. Chiyoko begins to tell her life story, at which point she literally steps into the past, dragging the confused crew into her memories - one moment they're discussing dramatic art, the next dodging bullets in the midst of a movie as the boundaries between film, memory, fact and fiction become a breathless blur.
