In terms of anime excellence that has defined the genre, it is hard not to look at 1995's Ghost in the Shell as one of the movies that brought the genre to the forefront of the West. While coming out several years after Akira, both films rose to prominence in the '90s and won over many fans as online made it more viable to check out and learn about international animation and films. It has made its creator, Mamoru Oshii, revered among anime and sci-fi fans, with subsequent projects by the director finding equal fanfare.
Yet, there is one project of Mamoru Oshii's that often goes overlooked, the 2001 live-action sci-fi thriller Avalon. We will look at why this movie has stayed relatively obscure, and whether it is worth checking out for yourself.
