"Grave of the Fireflies"

Wed Jun 28, 2006, 2:05 PM
No words can come even close to describing this movie. As an adult, i have never, ever seen a movie that has moved nearly as much as this film did.

And i quote from the poem i find most related to this movie (found it at Imdb.com);

I come and stand at every door. But no one hears my silent tread. I knock and yet remain unseen. For I am dead, for I am dead.

I'm only seven although I died. In Hiroshima long ago. I'm seven now as I was then. When children die they do not grow.

My hair was scorched by swirling flame. My eyes grew dim, my eyes grew blind. Death came and turned my bones to dust. And that was scattered by the wind.

I need no fruit, I need no rice. I need no sweet, nor even bread. I ask for nothing for myself. For I am dead, for I am dead.

All that I ask is that for peace. You fight today, you fight today. So that the children of this world. May live and grow and laugh and play.

-- Nazim Hikmet

Your drawings are nice, just you need to make them more realistic. I mean that they should like like they could actually fire.

I've been away for a while, I am, as stated, in the army (Airforce) and I dont have the time to put up much new stuff on DevArt, but I have some finished works I will upload ASAP. Until then, I will remain somewhat unactive Im afraid :(
