DISNEY - THE SECRET WORLD OF ARRIETTY(2010)
Another of Disneys renditions of one the great Miyazaki's
wonderful animes! This is a retelling of the story of The
Borrowers, which has been made into movies a few times!
This one is very entertaining, tho a little slow! No real action
to speak of, but still an enthralling tale about little people
who live below the house of a young boy who's visiting his
Aunt to rest up before he has a needed operation on his
heart! Very touching!! A
A review from IMDb.com:
I went into this film with very limited expectations. I'm not
especially a fan of animated movies, and have only seen a
small handful of anime productions. So it came as a very
unexpected surprise to discover that I absolutely loved
this movie. It just seemed to get everything pretty much
right. The visual artistry was quite beautiful, with a great
deal of invention in the scenes where the little Borrowers
navigate through the wide expanses of the house they live
underneath. The music was quite stunningly appropriate,
with the lilting Celtic sound just perfect in tone for this
melancholic story, with some lovely vocal work too. And
these images and sounds were combined together into
a simple narrative that had an enormous amount of heart
to it. I felt a warm buzz long after leaving the theatre.
The Borrower Arrietty is a beautiful film. I cannot really
find fault with it. So from this reviewer who has very
limited knowledge of anime I give it a near perfect
nine. - Red-Barracuda
