my favourite movie. i've watched it twenty times, and yet i had never read the book. well i finally did read the book. watching the movie and being able to identify details, whether big or small, from the book was so fun. although the two are quite different, they both succeed in making me so attached to sophie and howl. yes i would've loved for the movie to be a bit more accurate to the book (with the importance of Wales and sophie's sisters for example) but i also think hayao miyazaki's version is perfect. i truly wouldn't have it any other way.
