When Marnie Was There - Official Trailer (English language version)

WHEN MARNIE WAS THERE, out now on DVD and Blu-Ray!

Twelve-year-old Anna believes she sits outside the invisible magic circle to which most people belong, and shuts herself off from everyone around her.

Concerned for her health, Anna’s foster mother decides to send her to rural Hokkaido to stay in a sleepy town by the sea. As she dreams her days away amongst the marshes, Anna finds herself strangely drawn to the enigmatic house which sits upon the edge there. This is where she meets Marnie, an energetic young girl who seems to appear from nowhere. The pair quickly become inseparable.

One evening, Marnie makes a heartfelt request of Anna: “Promise me something – that we’ll remain a secret, forever.” Anna begins to wonder about her newfound friend and is compelled to investigate the truth about her. As she is drawn deeper into Marnie’s world, she begins to learn about family, friendship and kindness.

Based on the beloved novel by Joan G. Robinson, WHEN MARNIE WAS THERE is the latest film from Studio Ghibli, and the second feature film by Hiromasa Yonebayashi, the director of ARRIETTY.

This movie made a grown man weep, multiple times. It’s a deeply emotional and touching story, I highly recommend it.

[nothanks]

I also want everyone here to know, that this was a book adaptation. When Marnie Was There was written by british author Joan G Robinson in 1967. It is based on a small town in Norfolk England that the author strongly favoured. In fact, anna is probably based on the author herself. After the author passed, her daughter spoke of a japanese man that visited the town the story was based in, because he adored the book and wanted to see the mansion, etc... I strongly suspect this had something to do with ghilbi.

Ghibi did an amazing job, but Joan G Robinson deserves the credit and i hope that fans on the anime, will consider buying her book, as it is very good.
