Real porco rosso plane
He ascends into the clouds, and emerges a pig. During an intense battle, Marco sees all of his friends and fellow fighters on both sides of the battle die. Originally a human named Marco, he was a fighter pilot in World War I. The origin of why Porco Rosso is a pig is a bit fuzzy. He’s even popular with the ladies, despite being a swine. All of the humans in the world seem to accept this fact without a lot of questioning. He’s just that guy who turned into a pig. He spends a lot of time in Italy, and I wondered if there were any awkward encounters in restaurants involving Prosciutto. He wears human clothing, he even has a mustache. He seeks out his friend/mechanic Piccolo, and with help from Piccolo’s spunky, engineering genius granddaughter, Fio, Porco Rosso’s plane is ready just in time for a plane duel with Curtis. Porco escapes harm, but his plane is not so lucky. As the arrogant American, Curtis wants to prove his superiority, and shoots down the famous pilot Porco Rosso. He meets his match however, when a brassy Texan, Donald Curtis, comes to town. When his services are needed, he sets off to thwart air pirates, using a combination of fighting skills and wit. He lives in a tent on a beach, where he spends his days smoking, drinking wine, and tinkering with his airplane. Porco Rosso (Crimson Pig) is a former Italian army flying ace who now works as a gun for hire. This is most likely why I’ve put off seeing Studio Ghibli’s Porco Rosso, until now. Maybe I was scarred by my first introduction to talking animals, Charlotte’s Web, but I tend to be resistant to any film that involves animals speaking, especially when they are anthropomorphic.

I’ve never been a fan of talking animal stories, not even as a kid. It might seem too strange, if it wasn’t a Studio Ghibli film. He enjoys fighting sky pirates and ugly Americans. A military deserter becomes a bounty hunter.
