“Sonatine” by Joe Hisaishi.

I don’t believe this is from any of Miyazaki’s films, but it’s absolutely beautiful and since Mr. Hisaishi does the scores for all of the Studio Ghibli films I figured what the heck, I’ll post it.

Howl’s Moving Castle theme;

My favourite Hayao Miyazaki movie of all time.

Sophie: I just organized things, Howl. Nothing’s ruined.

Howl: Wrong! Wrong! I specifically ordered you not to get carried away!

Howl: [tragically] Now I’m repulsive. I can’t live like this.

[He slumps in a chair and starts sobbing, head in hands]

Sophie: Come on, it’s not that bad.

[Howl’s hair changes color to purple, then black]

Sophie: You should look at it now, its shade is even better.

Howl: [inconsolable] I give up. I see no point in living if I can’t be beautiful.

lol.  That scene is my favorite out of the whole movie =).  It’s especially hilarious when considering that Christian Bale (the voice of Howl, for those of you who don’t know) plays an appearance-obsessed psychopath in American Psycho. <3

And as always, Joe Hisaishi is amazing.
