Review of Millennium Actress (2002) by Darin Z — 18 Nov 2007

I'm embarrassed to admit that I have seen very few Anime films and every one I see seems to get better than the last. This story brings an imaginative narrative to life by utilizing its extraordinary visual design to its fullest capacity. A movie studio is being torn down and one of it's most well-known actresses, now in Garbo-like seclusion, is being interviewed about her life. During her retelling of her past, her interviewers are mystically transported back in time to the exact time and place she is discussing and are able to act and react to all the situations. If you just flow with it, you'll enjoy it more than asking tons of questions during.

At least in this film they don't have a time machine where they could just go back to the day before any traumatic events and change history.
