All children and all adults who have kept their sense for fairy tales should see "My Neighbour Totoro". Other adults should also see it to regain that sense, at least for a short, magical moment. - Andreas Hallgren

6 / 10
In a magical, drawn-out sequence at a bus stop in the forest during a rainy downpour with a toad hopping by, a Mei dozing off, a street lamp turning on, and a troll scratching its belly, childhood poetry is so compact that even a broken adult sees everything as if for the first time. - Kerstin Gezelius
