Based on the novel by British author Diana Wynne Jones, in Howl's Moving Castle Hayao Miyazaki brings to life a fantastical time in 19th century Europe when science and magic defined the popular zeitgeist. There's a foppish wizard named Howl, a pesky witch from the wastelands, an anthropomorphic chimney fire and a young girl who carries a most unusual curse. And, of course, there's the moving castle... a towering, omnipresent structure that dominates the landscape.
