Boy and the Heron passed the Creator and Haunting in Venice is definitely a story of the year that box office observer would never forget. I think Heron can try 45m finish. The WOM in the West is far better than in the East. The movie itself is magical, I've almost never seen a movie managed to pull this trick. You know what happened, but never sure why or how it happened. Miyazaki basically give a gold class lesson to all filmmakers about how to make a dream-like movie.
