The Secret World of Arrietty

What films have you seen lately?  Me?  I saw "The Secrets of Arrietty".  It's a movie inspired by the book "The Borrowers".  I liked it a lot, probably second to "My Neighbor Totoro" and probably tie with "Howl's Moving Castle".  It's about this tiny girl Arrietty who lives with her mom and dad under the floorboards of a house.  They are called borrowers because they "borrow" little stuff you wouldn't notice missing in your house like cubes of sugar, one sheet of tissue, etc.  But once discovered by humans, they have to move.  Arrietty meets a human boy Sean and they help each other out.  It's pretty cool.  Also, the cat sorta looks like Totoro.  See it if you can.  Or read the book. My next review is "Dr. Seuss' The Lorax".
