Film 4 will air Ghibli's Arriety on the 30th of December at 16:55
"Ghibli has done it again. While Pixar rakes in the cash at the expense of artistic credibility and the ultimate Potter behemoth saturates the summer box office, the Japanese animation studio chimes in with another timeless, quietly breathtaking work of art. Taking as his starting point Mary Norton's The Borrowers, Studio Ghibli co-founder Hayao Miyazaki who wrote the script for Arrietty but left its direction to his protégé Hiromasa Yonebayashi. With it, he seems to be - as usual, in complete contrast to Anglo-American studio patterns - dialling down and fine-tuning both his narrative and artistic ambitions, rather than exploding them into the 3D equivalent of an overpowering belch onto defenceless infants and harangued parents"
