News Dubai Film Festival to Screen Coo, Gentle Breeze
posted on 2007-12-03 15:11 EST
Keiichi Hara's Summer Days with Coo will be the only anime film featured at the 4th annual Dubai International Film Festival (DIFF) when it screens in the United Arab Emirates' main city on December 15. The children's adventure film was recently nominated in the best animated feature film category of the Asia Pacific Screen Awards, but lost out to another anime, Makoto Shinkai's 5cm per Second.

The 1994 manga tells the story of six classmates in a small rural Japanese school and the new boy who comes to their village from Tokyo.

There's plenty of visual flourish to keep fans interested, with over-
There is but one volume remaining to Ouran High School Host Club, and it has been a fun ride. While this book doesn't quite live up the earlier ones in terms of pure, lighthearted enjoyment, it is still solidly entertaining.
Cage of Eden has all of the elements of a classic survival epic – monsters, diseases, an unfriendly wilderness with no perceived escape, and our own ability as humans to lie. While it can be laid on a bit thick at times, and the fanservice or treatment of the adult female characters may be objectionable to some, Yamada's story is an engrossing one.
Nothing here shakes up the series the way parts of the last volume did, but it's consummate entertainment nonetheless: slick and effortlessly propulsive, yet still respectful of its audience and characters.
