Movie preview: “The Secret World of Arrietty”

Anonymous The Washington Times-Herald Thu Feb 16, 2012, 02:38 PM EST

Rated: G

Running time: 1 hr 34 min

Starring: Bridgit Mendler, Amy Poehler, Carol Burnett, Will Arnett

Plot: In an adaptation of author Mary Norton’s beloved children’s book, 14-year-old Arrietty is just like any other adolescent girl — except for the fact that she’s only a few inches tall. Arrietty and her family are Borrowers: a race of tiny people who live among the regular-size humans undetected, and only emerge to scrounge miniscule amounts of essential living supplies. When Arrietty attempts to help her father stock up on necessities, she meets a 12-year-old human boy named Shawn and the pair develop a secret friendship. If the Borrowers are discovered by others, however, their relationship could drive Arrietty’s family from the home and straight into danger.
