The websites critical consensus reads, ' When Marnie Was There is still blessed with enough visual and narrative beauty to recommend, even if it isnt. On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 91, based on 99 reviews, with an average rating of 7.47/10. Anna’s journey to accepting herself is inspirational, and one that many girls can relate to. When Marnie Was There received positive reviews. Overall, the film is touching piece of work that I would recommend all girls to watch. She found it within herself to forgive both her foster-mother, who had kept the payments a secret from her, as well as Marnie, who was actually her grandmother, who was never able to forgive herself for leaving Anna behind all alone. When Anna learns the truth, she is finally able to come to terms with her past and comes out of it at peace with who she is. In actuality, Anna had been very loved by both her birth parents and grandmother before they died. This is something that Anna was able to have towards the end of the film, as she learns her foster parents do cherish her as their own and had not meant to keep the payments a secret from her and that she was not abandoned like she always believed she had been. That sometimes it’s alright to open to others to be honest about how we really feel because every now and then, we can gain the closure that we need. And almost immediately, you can see the difference in Anna’s behaviour as she becomes a much happier person.Ī lesson this film teaches us is that we shouldn’t always keep our problems and insecurities all to ourselves. Something Anna was never able to do before as she always believed she had nobody to turn to. Through their secret interactions, Anna and Marnie open up to each other, often confiding their secrets. The film has been critically acclaimed as another masterpiece in the anime genre. The release has proven the film is in short supply, but fortunately for me, my local cinema has thrown in the random showing. This is where she meets Marnie, a girl that lives in the marsh house, who only Anna appears to see. When Marnie Was There was originally released in Japan back in July 2014, but the UK did not get its release until June 2016. Under the advice of a doctor, Anna is soon sent away to stay with some relatives in a seaside town. We soon learn that Anna’s insecurities stem from the discovery that her foster parents are actually paid to take care of her by the government, thereby making her question if they truly loved her at all. Something that most girls, myself included, can relate to when we are around than age.

The film revolves around twelve-year-old Anna Sasaki, a shy girl who is insecure about her appearance, and considers herself as an outcast amongst her peers. Robinson’s When Marnie Was There (1967), I was willing to make an exception. I don’t normally watch movies, but for the Studio Ghibli’s animated film adaption of Joan G.

This whole movie was great and I also got a new theory out of it and this is great.Anna (left) and Marnie (right) from When Marnie Was There (2014), Studio Ghibli’s animated film adaptation of Joan G. The entire time I was watching the film I kept thinking is she real? Fake? Is the whole movie a dream? I had no idea I was confused the entire film until the end and the ending was so sweet I liked that a lot! Oh great I am about to cry again just by looking at the gifs :cry.

I also shipped Marnie and Anna so much throughout the entire film until it is revealed that it can’t happen. So today I watched When Marnie Was There! This was the movie I managed to get during spring break and now that I have watched it is yet another great Studio Ghibli movie I love! Ever since I have moved I kind of become and introvert but will once in a while be an extrovert and I related to Anna so much with not wanting to make new friends and she is such a great character and I relate a lot to her. Hey guys Cali here with finally another review I know it will be a while until another one though.
