I've watched Spirited Away more times than I can count.

It's a great movie overall, but I really watch it just to see specific scenes - Chihiro going headlong down the stairs and crashing into the wall, Sen's face underwater, Lynn calling her a dope, the soot balls bringing out her shoes and especially the train seeming to float on the water. That last is a visual treat to rival 5 Centimeters per Second.

I've never seen it on the big screen. That would be nice.

the train seeming to float on the water

Stay tuned for a clip post coming this week! This part really stuck with me too. I love it when a movie or show isn't afraid to just dedicate a big chunk of time to set a mood. No dialogue needed, just atmosphere. That is also part of why I think I like the road trip portion of Suzume so much as well.
