Miyazaki Declines Academy Invitation Date: 7/31/2006 |
Hayao Miyazaki has turned down an invitation to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, according to Studio Ghibli producer Toshio Suzuki, who held a press conference on Friday. "He was actually requested three times," Suzuki said. "He does not seem to be glad with it because [he thinks] it seems to mean his retirement is near. Miyazaki's thought, 'I want to be as active as possible,' seems to be strong." |
