"When Marnie was there" touched me on an emotional level...This film is so beautifully crafted with that nostalgic animation effect that Ghibli movies carry as a trademark...The character desigining of Marnie is indescribably beautiful...her long, wavy blonde hair and her ocean blue eyes portray sweet and innocent Marnie...Anna was someone I could relate to, someone who is locked outside of the social circle...suffering with anxiety, asthma and depression...Things start changing for Anna when she meets Marnie. This movie provides us with a crystal clear picture of how people who seem happy and always smile, sometimes have dark hidden secrets in their life. Please talk to people, and try to understand them. You are not alone, remember, and don't let anyone be alone. Have a nice day :)
