The Secret World of Arrietty (1:34) 2012

Based on the children's book The Borrowers, The Secret World of Arrietty is a wonderfully charming family animation. Arrietty is a borrower, a little person who lives with her parents under the floorboards of a rural cottage/ The borrowers do not steal, they borrow only what they need and won't be missed. Arrietty's parents continually stress that borrowers should not be seen by beings, as they are not trustworthy. One day, a pre-teenage boy comes to stay at the cottage. He is resting before his heart operation. Shawn sees Arrietty one night and they eventually form a friendship. Arrietty and her parents' secret is safe with Shawn but not with the housekeeper, Hara. Hara is bound and determined to catch the little people to prove their existence. Shawn will go to any length to keep the borrowers away from Hara, even if it endangers his own life. Disney Toyko is created a quiet and beautiful animee. The audience of all ages will enjoy this movie.  Highly recommended.
