Porco Rosso (Finnish theatrical premiere title 7 March 2008) / Punainen sika (Finnish tv title 1995). JP 1992. PC: Studio Ghibli. D: Hayao Miyazaki. Theme song: "Le Temps de cerises". 94 min. Released by Cinema Mondo only in the original version with Finnish / Swedish subtitles by Janne Mökkönen / Joanna Erkkilä. Rated 7 in Finland. Viewed at Tennispalatsi 8, Helsinki, 8 March 2008.
The Hayao Miyazaki anime masterpiece gets its Finnish theatrical premiere, having been seen in the country previously only on tv, the home vhs copies having become treasures of the owners. Its colour, sense of adventure and fascination with machines and landscapes resemble Hergé. The story takes place on the Adriatic Sea in 1929. The aviator hero is a bounty hunter who fights air pirates. His head has strangely metamorphosed into that of a pig's. Two strong female chacters: the club singer and the young mechanic wizard. The wonder of flying is based on the freedom from gravity, and Miyazaki has his fun with this freedom.
