Legendary Japanese animator, Hayao Miyazaki (PeekYou profile here), has declared that his widely-acclaimed newest film, The Wind Rises, will be his last.

The movie, which is up for an Oscar next week, tells the story of real-life World War II-era, Japanese plane designer, Jiro Horikoshi. It opened in select U.S. theaters this weekend, and opens more widely next week.
