When Sho leaves the car, he sees a cat trying to attack something in the bushes, but the cat leaves after being attacked by a crow. They call themselves 'Borrowers' because they in people's houses and take items in the house such as tea leaves, sugar, in other words items that won't be missed if they disappear and it's only what they need to survive.Ī boy named Sho arrives at the house his mother lived in as a child, to stay with his great aunt Sadako.

It's easy for kids to follow and endlessly beautiful to watch.

Geraldine McEwan (Miss Marple) is also great as Haru, she is a classic creepy Ghibli old lady and some of the noises she makes are making me laugh just now thinking of them. Olivia Colman (Peep Show, Hot Fuzz) Is brilliant as the panicky Mum of Arrietty constantly fretting about the humans and her daughter running off all the time. The majority of the fun in this film comes from watching the tiny borrowers clamber around the shelves using string to rappel off cupboards. They hide themselves from us humans waiting until night to sneak into our homes and 'Borrow' the things we wont miss, like sugar cubes and tissues.

Arrietty is The Borrowers (in fact many cinemas are calling it just that) Tiny people live under the floorboards of a house where a young boy with a heart condition is gathering some much needed rest before his impending risky operation. Along with some descent English dubbing and the humour that always accompanies tiny people with giant sugar cubes, Arrietty is the usual charming goodness from team Ghibli. And that really comes across when seeing this new offering on the big screen. No matter how realistic your computer generated image is or how much the train conductor looks like Tom Hanks, you can't really compete with the beauty of Ghibli's animation.
