Blue Hour
Takahata Isao's animated artistry in Only Yesterday (1991) comes to life at Hakota Yuko's delicate story of a female's mnemonic journey. Trapped in love relationship and her anemic career, a television director returns together with a free-spirited girl friend for her countryside home. In a bittersweet reunion with an alienated family, her childhood memories of freedom and yearnings creep at the dream like blue hour, divides to a lyricism of selfrealization -- hopeful, painful and at the same time whimsical.
