Hayao Miyazaki feature film debut, and only feature outside of his own Studio Ghibili, “LUPIN THE 3rd: The Castle of Cagliostro ” based on the original Monkey Punch comics, is a blind spot for many Miyazaki fans. Filled with the charm and beautiful animation we come to love from Miyazaki, the film needs to be seen on the big screen.
In the twilight of his career, master thief Lupin III’s latest caper, expecting riches from a national casino, goes awry when he discovers the loot is expert counterfeits. Teaming up with partner-in-crime Jigen, Lupin embarks on a perilous mission to the remote nation of Cagliostro, encountering unexpected obstacles including rescuing a damsel in distress and navigating through treacherous traps to uncover hidden treasures and evade his long-time nemesis, Inspector Zenigata.
