Porco Rosso – an animation for adults How many people think that animation is a gift to a child, and that adult's childhood has not been cured by animation. In Miyazaki's films, adults seem to go back to that childhood. Porco Rosso is an autobiographical film by Hayao Miyazaki that reflects the troubles of middle-aged people, and the film tells the story of an Italian ace pilot named Polluk who feels love, friendship, and family affection in a journey, which was changed by Ghibli in 1992 to "The Age of Flying Boats".
Polluk was an air thief bounty hunter who flew a red seaplane on the Adriatic Sea. Since childhood, he has loved aviation flight, and when he was a teenager, he used to fly a seaplane carrying gina with a green plum bamboo horse, and his flying skills were superb. After World War I, he cast a spell on himself and turned himself into a pig. He has unspeakable feelings for Gina. In a battle against the Air Thieves, Polluk unsurprisingly won the battle, and the Air Thieves also brought in the American pilot Cadiz, a professional flyer from the United States who once defeated the Italian team in the Hughet Cup Flying Competition. Hired by the Air Thieves Alliance to escort him to Italy. Flying skills are comparable to those of Porco Rosso, Cartier loves beauty, and when he first met Gina in the hotel run by Gina, he boldly courted Gina and made up his mind to defeat Porco Rosso, so he was shot down by Cardius on the way to an old friend of Porco Rosso who was about to go to repairs after a red Porco yacht failed, and Cartiers found a fragment of a red plane and touted his skills among the pilots of the Adriatic Sea.
At this time, the first heroine of the film, Gina, is very worried about what happened to Porco Rosso, and tells the story of herself and Polluk and the husband of the three pilots, Gina is Poruk's old friend of the green plum bamboo horse, running a hotel, noble and elegant, has a good voice, and is deeply supported and admired by the Adriatic pilots, and the three husbands are pilots and all were killed. Deeply in love with Porco Rosso, she once told Cadiz that she was waiting for Porco Rosso in the garden, and that she would marry Porco Rosso as soon as Porco Rosso entered the garden during the day.
On the other hand, Porco Rosso arrives at Paulo's company and asks for a new flying boat, and Paulo, citing his advanced age, asks his granddaughter Fior to design the flying boat. Born and raised in the United States, Fio was intelligent, hardworking, bold and lively, with an amazing talent and ability for aircraft design, and was cultivated as an heir by Paulo's father.
After Fior's design, the airship was successfully built, during which Porco Rosso's former comrades advised Porco Rosso to return to the army, but Porco Rosso refused, and said, let me be a fascist, it is better to be a pig.
Fior designs a new seaplane for Polluk and follows him to the Adriatic Sea, where the thieves are already waiting in Porco's secret base, and the amorous Cartier falls in love with Fio at first sight and makes a bet on Fio to duel with Porco, on the eve of the duel, Rousseau tells Fio about his experiences in World War I.
The next day, under the gaze of a large number of air robbers and Fio, the duel began. In the final battle, Red Pig understood that he should face his feelings and came out of the shadows of the war to defeat Cardis, at that moment Red Pig seemed to have become a man named Polluk again, but at this time the Allied airship had arrived, in order to protect Fio's safety, Polluk let Gina take Fio, and he and Cardis left to meet the Coalition, At the end of the film, it leaves a wealth of space for people to imagine, has Porco Rosso turned back into a human? Porco Rosso accepted Gina? Or Porco Rosso doesn't want to leave Fio with regrets anymore, and different people already have different answers in their hearts.
