We had a piece last week from Madman Entertainment that has a couple of the actors from The Wind Rises talking about the feature and now they’ve released another spot with Emily Blunt and Joseph Gordon-Levitt talking about the film. So many people in general have little to no experience with anime of this nature that when they get involved with it, it can be pretty eye-opening for them, especially if they’re used to more traditional America animated films. With The Wind Rises out now in Australia (and going wide this weekend in North America), Madman Entertainment has a pretty nice little clip that has the English version stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Emily Blunt and William H Macy talking about the film.
Plot concept: Jiro dreams of flying and designing beautiful airplanes. Nearsighted from a young age and thus unable to become a pilot, Jiro joins the aircraft division of a major Japanese engineering company in 1927. His genius is soon recognized, and become one of the world’s most accomplished airplane designers.
