Product Description

Product Description

From the leader in animé Katsuhiro Otomo (Osamu Tezuka's Metropolis, Memories), comes his first feature- length directorial project since his breakthrough film (Akira). Ten years in the making, witha total budget of $22 million, Steamboy is the most expensive Japanese animé production ever. A retro science-fiction epic set in Victorian England, Steamboy features an inventor prodigy named Ray Steam, who receives a mysterious metal ball containing a new form of energy capable of powering an entire nation, the Steam Ball. Young Ray Steam must use the Steam Ball to fight evil, redeem his family, and save London from destruction. With more than 180,000 drawings and 400 CG cuts, Steamboy is one of the most elaborate animated features ever created.

Set Contains:

The many extras on the DVD have been overproduced but underthought. "Animation Onion Skins" shows five scenes in various phases of production, but there are no captions or commentary to explain the significance of the stages or their relationship to each other. Several artists talk about the production in the "Multi-Screen Landscape Study" (a split-screen making-of for an exhibit in Japan), but nothing tells the viewer who they are or what they did. The interview with Otomo is less than a one-quarter as long as the very standard "Revoicing" featurette. --Charles Solomon
