Problem:Charming Story - Outstanding Animation - Good Family Movie . Set in the suburbs of Tokyo, "Whisper of the Heart" is a story of finding ones place in the real world and of finding one's first true love. The teenage main character, Shizuku, wants to be a writer and is seeking her place in the world. While she is a voracious reader, she reads only fantasy which tends to skew her world view. After meeting a hansome boy, Seiji, who both infuriates and intrigues her, Shizuku sets a personal goal. Because Seiji knows he wants to study violin making in Italy and is going there for a short apprenticeship to see if he has the skills, Shizuku sets a goal of writing a story by the time he returns in order to know conclusively if she should be a writer. During the course of Whisper of the Heart, she learns that life and love is not as easy as in a storybook but that with hard work, one may find true love and happiness in real life as well as in stories. A subplot is Shizuku's relationship with Seiji's Grandfather who serves as the voice of wisdom and experience. He teaches her that many beautiful things are hidden and may only be exposed with hard work. He also teaches that life does not always give a happy ending. Other than the scene showing Shizuku's writing, the story has none of the strange characters, magic, or fantastic settings of other Studio Ghibli U.S. releases. (In my opinion, some of their best real-life style stories such as "Omoide Poro Poro" do not translate well into American culture or the American market.) The animation is fantastic, which I attribute to the detail Studio Ghibli includes. This is the film which gave rise to "The Cat's Return" and several of the characters are found in both (the Baron, Muuta). Regardless of the subject matter, I was easily caught up in the story and found it quite compelling. My wife and I often set the language to Japanese with subtitles (my Japanese is abysmal) and as we found with "Kiki's Delivery Service," the translation of the Japanese dialog is better than what was written for the English version. Those with some knowledge of Japanese culture will notice some other facets of that culture which underlie the story. These include studying for the High School admission tests and the "Goodbyes" of long-time classmates following junior high school. I found this to be a good family movie and highly recommend it, particularly to anyone with teenage daughters.
