Hayao Miyazaki’s debut feature revisits a character he directed for television―gentleman thief Lupin the 3rd. Grandson to Maurice Leblanc’s French literary master thief Arsène Lupin, Lupin the 3rd is a Swinging Sixties-style, James Bond-like charmer who steals for thrills. Stuck with counterfeit bills after a Monaco casino heist, Lupin and his sidekicks hightail it to the mysterious principality of Cagliostro to find the source of the fake money. In the process, the trio becomes embroiled in palace intrigue between Count Cagliostro and Princess Clarisse. An energetic caper, Lupin the 3rd: The Castle of Cagliostro is a stylish start to a brilliant oeuvre.
