forgot to share this in the moment, but I saw Kiki's delivery service in theaters on Wednesday

but since I've already seen it a dozen times I end up spending most of the movie trying to figure out which time period and country it's supposed to be taking place in

black and white tiny screen TV's that (most) people seem to have is like, 40's or 50's right? the style of telephone seems to match that general era

but then the background people look like they're from the 80's (or Lilo & Stitch)

Kiki and her family (minus the pocket radio and her dad's car) seem to be living further in the past with no TV & phone (that's shown anyway)

and then there's the fucking dirigible

the country Kiki ends up residing in would probably be easiest to figure out if I actually took the time to write down any of the signs that are shown in town

although I think Europe has a lot of language overlap between country boundaries so maybe it wouldn't be easier

and then there's the tl;dr maybe it's just a mishmash of things that seem charming because it's a movie
