'Studio Ghibli Forever' Bringing Ghibli Back to UK Cinemas

April 06, 2016 , , ,
UK distributor StudioCanal has found great success bringing the works of the singular Studio Ghibli to British audiences. As the potentially final theatrical release from the studio looms, as When Marnie Was There arrives in the United Kingdom this June, many of their classics will be also returning to cinema screens.

The return on the Studio Ghibli Forever season will see films screen in London, Glasgow, Bristol, Manchester and Sheffield. The event kicks off on Sunday April 10th at the Prince Charles Cinema in London, and will run right through until November. The majority of the films will screen in the summer, however.  The Full list follows:
