I saw this when the DVD came out. This is the one directed by Hayao Miyazaki's son Goro. It's not one of Ghibli's best, but still far better than some other movies out there, and well worth seeing at least once, and adding to your Ghibli collection, like I did.
 
while it's not my favourite ghibli, it's a good film. On Jonathan Clements book they have this little story about how a certain director moans about the guys in ties got his son to direct a movie, because they shared a name.
Although he never cites any names, it's pretty clear that is Hayao talking about his son Goroh.
