some crazy film analysis thing

i did it for the points

sorry

it is for spirited away however, which is a lovely movie :3

also, actual heart and soul can be found in in the two posts below this

------

Ordinary World:

their old home off somewhere

also perhaps the actual ordinary, non-spirit world

Call to Adventure:

moving away

Chihiro being dragged into the spirit world, her parents turned into pigs

Haku: "talk to the boiler man, get a job, if he refuses you must insist."

Refusal of Call:

bad attitude about moving and all

Meeting the Mentor:

Haku finds her and instructs and helps her along at first

Kamajii also a mentor, tells her to

Crossing the Threshold:

talking to Yubaba and getting work in the bath house

Tests, Allies, and Enemies:

the whole ordeal with that stink spirit

Haku is not only apparently untrustworthy, but also apparently a dragon

encounter with the odd baby character

Approach the Inmost Cave:

chasing Haku down

The Ordeal:

nasty encounter with the bloated No-face

The Reward:

Zeniba breaks the curse

the baby and the crow become Chihiro's friends

Chihiro receives the protective hairband

The Road Back:

simply the trainride back

Resurrection:

Chihiro discovers Haku's real name and he is finally healed

one final test where she must pick out which of the pigs are actually her parents

Return with Elixir:

gets her parents back, gets back to real world

leaves as a much more mature person
