Details Release Date: Feb 17, 2012; Rated: G; Length: 94 Minutes; Genre: Animation; With: Will Arnett, Carol Burnett and Amy Poehler; Distributor: Walt Disney Pictures
The Secret World of Arrietty,
about a teeny-size 14-year-old girl who lives with her family beneath
the floorboards of a big house and the human-size boy who befriends
her, is adapted from British author Mary Norton's wonderful children's
fantasy novels, The Borrowers. The lyrical animation, with its
meditative attention to nature, bears the unique stamp of Japan's Studio
Ghibli, cofounded by the great Spirited Away animator Hayao
Miyazaki. The result is a dreamy, soft-edged hybrid, equally interested
in observing raindrops and the worries of a race of minuscule beings. B+
