Satoshi Kon’s third feature (following Perfect Blu and Millennium Actress) confirms his status as one of the most interesting directors working in anime. Tokyo Godfathers centers on three homeless people: Hana, a flamboyant ex-drag entertainer; Gin, an alcoholic former bicycle racer; and Miyuki, a sullen teenage runaway. Their tenuous existence becomes more chaotic when they set out to find the parents of an abandoned baby on Christmas Eve. They scream insults as they confront the lies they’ve told each other–and themselves–about the past. Yet they remain curiously endearing and even noble. All three care passionately about the abandoned infant, and they love each other, although they’re loath to admit it. Kon skillfully uses color to suggest the bitter winter cold and the characters’ alienation. Tokyo Godfathers shows that battling the inner demons that led these three characters to skid row can be a more daunting challenge than fighting aliens and cyborgs. (Rated PG-13: profanity, violence, tobacco and alcohol use) –Charles Solomon
