The Secret World of Arrietty
I get lost from her world whenever I watch again and again this cartoon. Everything is really tiny in her world. I want to live in that tiny house. Moreover, I also want to have that friendship, trusting friendship between Sho, the boy of the house, and Arrietty. Theirs is a beautiful, perfect love, but ultimately doomed like so many relationships in myths and fairytales. This moving, amusing and resonant tale also touches on environmental and ecological concerns, on xenophobia and the fear of the threatening other. And it has taken on new meanings about the respect and preservation of disappearing species and the need to treasure and recycle valuable resources.
