  • About the film:
    • "Excuse me, who are you?" Rising pop star Mima has quit singing to pursue a career as an actress and model, but her fans aren't ready to see her go. Encouraged by her managers, Mima takes on a recurring role on a popular TV show, when suddenly her handlers and collaborators begin turning up murdered. Harboring feelings of guilt and haunted by visions of her former self, Mima's reality and fantasy meld into a frenzied paranoia. As her stalker closes in, in person and online, the threat he poses is more real than even Mima knows. The debut film from legendary director Satoshi Kon (Paprika) has frequently been hailed as one of the most important animated films of all time—an intense psychological thriller for the social media era.

Phenomenal film from an amazing director. If you like Black Swan, you'll love this. Hits many similar nots. In fact, Black Swan's director, Darren Aronofsky cited it as an inspiration for another of his films, Requiem For A Dream: https://animationobsessive.substa...rfect-blue (spoiler warning).

I love this movie. But it may be because it was my first Satoshi Kon film and I had no idea what to expect going in.

Aronofsky recreated a couple of scenes straight from Perfect Blue in Requiem and Black Swan.

I recommend Millennium Actress. Strong story without weirdness/inappropriate material.

I saw perfect blue after a lot of other satoshi kon films, so I don't have nostalgia goggles for it, and I can say it's one of his best works.
