Arrietty (titled The Borrower Arrietty (借りぐらしのアリエッティ, Kari-gurashi no Arietti) in Japan and The Secret World of Arrietty in North America) is a 2010 Japanese animated fantasy film directed by Hiromasa Yonebayashi, written by Hayao Miyazaki and Keiko Niwa and produced by Studio Ghibli, based on Mary Norton's novel The Borrowers. The film tells the story of Arrietty, a young Borrower, who lives under the floorboards of a typical household. She eventually befriends Sho, a human boy with a heart condition since birth, who is living with his great aunt, Sadako. When Sadako's maid, Haru, becomes suspicious of the floorboard's disturbance, Arrietty and her family must escape detection, even if it means leaving their beloved home. The film stars the voices of Mirai Shida as the titular character, Ryunosuke Kamiki as Sho, and Tatsuya Fujiwara as Spiller.

Ghibli announced the film in late 2009 with Yonebayashi making his directorial debut as the youngest director of a Ghibli film. Miyazaki supervised the production as a developing planner.[2] The voice actors were approached in April 2010, and Cécile Corbel wrote the film's score as well as its theme song.

Released in Japan on July 17, 2010, Arrietty received very positive reviews, all of which praised the animation and music. It also became the highest grossing Japanese film at the Japanese box office for the year 2010,[3] and has grossed over $145 million worldwide.[1] The film also won the Animation of the Year award at the 34th Japan Academy Prize award ceremony.[4] Two English language versions of the film were produced, a British dub produced by Studio Canal which was released in the United Kingdom on July 29, 2011, and an American dub released by Walt Disney Pictures in North America on February 17, 2012.

Plot

A boy named Sho tells the audience he still remembers the week in summer he spent at his mother's childhood home with his great aunt, Sadako, and the house maid, Haru. When Sho arrives at the house on the first day, he sees a cat, Niya, trying to attack something in the bushes but it soon gives up after it was attacked by a crow. Sho then discovers Arrietty, a Borrower, emerging from the bushes and returning to her home through an underground air vent. Later at night, Arrietty's father, Pod, takes Arietty on her first "borrowing" mission above the floorboards to show her how he "borrows" sugar and tissue. After obtaining a sugar cube from the kitchen, they walk within a wall to reach a dollhouse in Sho's bedroom, to get tissue. However, Arrietty gets spotted by Sho while retrieving a piece of tissue from a tissue box and accidentally loses the sugar cube out of surprise. Sho asks her not to leave and although Arrietty hesitates, she still leaves the room with her father.

The next day, Sho leaves the dropped sugar cube beside the underground air vent where he first saw Arrietty. Pod warns Arrietty not to take it because their existence must be kept secret from humans, but his daughter sneaks out to visit Sho in his bedroom. She drops the sugar cube he left on the floor and he detects that she is there. She tells Sho to leave her family alone and that they do not need his help. She does not show him what she looks like. On her return, Arrietty is intercepted by her father. Realizing they have been detected, Pod and his wife, Homily decide that they must move out of the house. Sho learns from Sadako that some of his ancestors had seen Borrowers in this house, and they had the dollhouse made especially for the Borrowers, with working electric lights and ovens. The Borrowers had not been seen since, however, and the dollhouse stayed in Sho's room.

Pod returns injured from a borrowing mission and is being helped by Spiller, a Borrower boy he met on the way, who also informs them of some places the Borrowers could move to. While Pod is recovering, Sho uncovers the floorboards above the Borrower household, uproots their kitchen, and replaces it with the kitchen from the dollhouse as a display of kindness, in hopes the Borrowers would be more accepting of his knowledge of their existence. However, this causes the Borrowers to speed up the moving process.

After Pod recovers, he goes to explore some of the places Spiller suggested to them. Arrietty goes to say goodbye to Sho, but she discovers from Sho that the Borrowers are becoming extinct. Sho reveals he has had a heart condition since birth and will have an operation in a few days. The operation does not have a good chance of success. He believed that there is nothing he can do about it, saying that eventually every living thing dies. Arrietty convinces Sho that he will fight for the life he has now, even though everything dies.

Meanwhile Haru notices the floorboards have been disturbed. Sadako is out and Sho is still in the garden speaking with Arrietty, when Haru unearths the Borrowers' house and catches Homily. Arrietty leaves Sho in the garden to see what has happened. Saddened by Arrietty's departure, Sho goes back inside the house and into his room. Haru locks the room and calls a pest removal company to smoke out the Borrowers and bring them to her alive. Cooperating with Sho, Arrietty stages a rescue attempt on Homily. Sadako returns soon after the pest removal company comes and tells them to leave. Haru and Sadako discover too late that the Borrowers are moving, and Sho has destroyed the remains.

The Borrowers stop for dinner during their move, and Sho's cat, Niya, spots Arrietty. Niya brings Sho to Arrietty. He gives her a sugar cube, and tells her the Borrowers' fight for survival has given him hope to live through the operation, which will happen in two days' time. Arrietty gives Sho her "hair clip" and they go their separate ways. Arrietty, Pod, and Homily leave in a teapot with Spiller. Spiller gives Arrietty a red berry after she joins him on the teapot's top.

Studio Ghibli founders Isao Takahata and Hayao Miyazaki had been contemplating an adaptation of this novel for around 40 years.[2]

The director of the film was announced as the animator Hiromasa Yonebayashi on the same day.[9] Hiromasa Yonebayashi was one of the animators for the Studio Ghibli films Howl's Moving Castle, Ponyo, and Spirited Away.[9] He was also the reserve director for the film Tales from Earthsea.[9] Miyazaki was announced as the production planner for the film.[9]

Critical reception

Arrietty has received very positive reviews from film critics. As of May 2012, 94% of the 116 reviewers selected by the review aggregator, Rotten Tomatoes, have given the film positive reviews, certifying it "Fresh" with an average rating of 7.6 out of 10.[37] Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score, rated the film 80 out of 100 based on 27 reviews.[38]

Cristoph Mark of The Daily Yomiuri praised the film, saying that the film is "likely a perennial favorite among children".[39] He particularly liked the film effects, which he described as "Drops of water loom large and drip like syrup; the ticking of a clock reverberates through the floor and the theater's speakers; tissue paper is large and stiff...", adding that these effects gives the audience "a glimpse into their own world, but from a different perspective".[39] Mark Schilling of The Japan Times gave the film a rating of four out of five stars, and said that the film "speaks straight to the heart and imagination of [everyone]."[40] Schilling also praised the film's animation, saying that [Studio Ghibli animators] are past masters at creating the illusion of presence and depth without [3-D effects].[40] However, he also said that some scenes in the film "threatens to devolve into the sappy, the preachy, and the slapsticky" but noted that these scenes were "mercifully brief".[40]

Steve Rose, the reviewer for The Guardian gave the film four out of five stars and praised the film, describing it as "a gentle and entrancing tale, deeper and richer than more instantly gratifying fare."[41] Rose also described the film as "the slow food of the animation world,"[41] however, he did note that this film "doesn't match previous hits such as Spirited Away or Princess Mononoke in terms of epic scale or adult appeal", even though it bears many of their hallmarks: bright, detailed animation..." [41] Deborah Young of The Hollywood Reporter gave a positive review of the film. She said that the film "remains essentially a film for children".[42] Young later went on to say that the relationship with Sho and Arrietty "touches the heartstrings with gentle yearning", and praised Yonebayashi for its direction.[42] In the opening remarks made by David Gritten of The Telegraph, he said that the film was "ravishingly colourful and textured".[43] He also praised the animation, saying that "animation doesn’t get better than Arrietty." [43] Gritten gave the film a rating of 4 stars out of 5 stars.[43] In his review for Special Broadcasting Service, Don Groves gave a mixed review of the film and said that Arrietty was a "very slender, minor work." [44] Groves also criticized the film's storyline, calling it a "a gentle, humourless, uncomplicated tale of friendship in an alien environment." However, he praised the voice acting as "generally is as professional as [one would] expect." [44] Groves gave the film a rating of 3.5 stars out of 5 stars.[44]

Zac Bertschy of Anime News Network gave the North American version of Arrietty an overall grade of "B".[45] Bertschy praised the voice acting in the film and also praised the intricate details of the film's backgrounds, but said that "there isn't more going on here, even when it comes to the film's basic story",[45] however, he later went on to say that it is "foolish to deny the simple, warm, and familiar pleasures of Arrietty's world".[45] Leslie Felperin of Variety praised the film as "old school, mostly in a good way." She also praised the film for its animation, as well as Yonebayashi's direction. Felperin noted however, that the film lacked its "approach to storytelling that made Studio Ghibli's other [films] so compelling." [46] Manohla Dargis of The New York Times praised the film for its hand-drawn animation and Yonebayashi's direction.[47] Dargis later went on to say that the film has "a way of taking [the audience] where [they] may not expect." [47] Kenneth Turan of the Los Angeles Times described the film as "beautiful, gentle and pure".[48] Turan also praised the detail and animation in the film, as well as its storyline.[48] He also praised Karey Kirkpatrick and Gary Rydstrom for their adaptation of the film, as well as their casting decisions for the British and North American versions.[48] Lisa Schwarzbaum, the reviewer for Entertainment Weekly gave the film a "B+" and praised Arrietty for its animation.[49] Schwarzbaum later went on to say that the result is a "dreamy, soft-edge hybrid, equally interested in observing raindrops and the worries of a race of minuscule beings [the Borrowers]."
