Miyazaki's The Boy and the Heron Win Golden Globes Award

Hayao Miyazaki's latest film won the Golden Globe as best animated feature film. Producer's statemend below.

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association in the Golden Globes 2024 edition included in the Best Animated Feature Film category Elemental (Pixar), Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (Sony), Suzume (Makoto Shinkai), The Super Mario Bros. Movie (Illumination) and Wish (Disney).
