Title: an anime for all ages
Product review: Whisper of the heart is a wonderful, gentle movie in which Miyazaki's love for children will warm the hearts of old and young alike.The main character of the story is Shizuku, a girl at the threshold of her teenage years. In the movie she discover her strengths and weaknesses with the help of the Baron,(a statue of a cat), an old man who runs an curiosity store, (when he feels like it) and Seiji, a boy who has been in love with her for a long time and finally succeeds to make her notice him.Seiji had dreams of becoming a violin maker and Shizuku wants to be a writer. Both of them find out that it takes schooling and hard work to reach their dreams.Miyazaki has a wonderful way of portraying children, gentle and still very natural and realistic. When watching this movie I felt I got a glimps of life in Japan and wonder if this is a life of the past or if one still lives that way.This movie will be enjoyed by kids of any school age and by anyone who loves children.
