Animated Film - Howl's Moving Castle


Howl's Moving Castle Film




Having watched so many different genres of movies, I would say that Howl's Moving Castle would be in my top 10 favorite movies of all time although it was released back in 2004. So what is this movie about which makes it so great that I would put in my top 10 ? Well the answer lies in the the title itself, 'Howl's Moving Castle', and of course the whole concept of it is cartoon which makes it fictional but what fascinates me is the plot of the story and the choice of characters being chosen in this film. 

Well the plot tells a story about a girl named Sophie who is cursed by the Witch of the Waste, turns into an old woman, and is unable to tell anyone of her plight. She then seeks for a cure for the curse until she meets a living scarecrow which brought her into Howl's Castle. Sophie befriends Calcifer, the fire demon who powers the castle and who is bound to Howl by a contract, the terms of which Calcifer cannot reveal. They promise to help each other with their problems. Like Calcifer, Howl can also see through the Witch's spell, and he and Sophie fall in love. Sophie helps Howl confront his former teacher, Madam Suliman, and the Witch of the Waste.

Below here is a trailer for the movie, Howl's Moving Castle. Hope you enjoy !
