So U.S. audiences know him from those films, and from the 2004 Howl's Moving Castle, whose characters (and their dwellings and vehicles) seemed to spring from the mind of Joel Hodgson's Gizmonics Institute. People who hadn't seen Miyazaki's pictures might have heard his name mentioned on Oscar night: Spirited Away won an Academy Award for best animated feature, and Howl's was nominated in that category...

"It's not ideological. It's good guys and bad guys...

"We discovered, as did the Kuwaitis, that the Iraqis had planted land mines in the playgrounds. So we hadn't been there 12 hours, and the first case we get is a young child who had gone outside to play on the teeter-totter and stepped on a land mine. That was my first experience with land mines...
