Anna A lonely young woman in search of meaning.		Marnie A secretive girl shrouded in mystery.

Product Description

From Academy AwardÂ®-nominated Hiromasa Yonebayashi
Â
""Four stars! As gorgeously animated as anything Studio Ghibli has ever made!"" -David Ehrlich, Time Out

A sweeping story of friendship, mystery, and discovery that delivers stirring emotions and breathtaking animation. When shy, artistic Anna travels to the seaside to stay with relatives, she stumbles upon an old mansion surrounded by marshes, and the mysterious young girl, Marnie, who lives there. The two girls instantly form a unique connection and friendship that blurs the lines between fantasy and reality. As the days go by, a nearly magnetic pull draws Anna back to the Marsh House again and again, and she begins to piece together the truth surrounding her strange new friend. Based on the beloved young adult novel by Joan G. Robinson and directed by Hiromasa Yonebayashi (The Secret World of Arrietty), When Marnie Was There is a haunting tale gorgeously rendered with its moonlight seascapes, glowing orchestral score, and powerful portrayals of friendship and belonging.

Underrated Masterpiece

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 13, 2022

Verified Purchase

When checking out Studio Ghibli’s work for the first time Last Year, some of these films showed how Thought Provoking, Profound, and captured this type of realism I never see a whole in other Animated Works like Disney or Pixar especially (that and I’d kicking my butt so hard for thinking Anime is just weirdness and also waiting so late in life). Around the first round, I’d check out well known classics like: Spirited Away (the first one I’d checked out in fact), Grave of the Fireflies, Princess Mononoke, etc. Then I eventually finished off Ghibli’s filmography (and yes I gone through Goro’s films before this one, how kinda poetic thinking this was their last film before Earwig) with this one. For Yonebashi’s second film, I was surprised by how much it touched me (again, kick myself even harder for shoving it off the first time around). This film spoke to me back around my early years (something I’d rather not go in detail). Ghibli fans, quit giving the harsh comparisons and thinking this does live up to other films. This should be deserved to be discussed alongside said others.

Some Blu-Ray blues, but inside there is a fitting closure to some extraordinary moviemaking.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 31, 2016

Verified Purchase

First, about the Blu-Ray: some of those commenting here have complained about not being able to skip the promotions at the beginning of the disk to go to the movie directly instead. If they are using Cyberlink 13, 14 -- or 15 on a PC, as I do: right click on the screen; that will open a menu with an item for “going to …” where one can open yet another menu that offers the choice of starting at the “root” menu.
Now, the film:
This is the last full-feature ever to be produced by the illustrious Study Ghibli, at least while operating in the same manner that has earned it the heartfelt admiration of so many, for so many years.
It is also the Japanese version of an English ghost story, and the material cannot be stronger, originating from one of two cultures that excel in them and coming now to us through the filter of the other.
One of the two main characters is a shy pre-pubescent girl that is at war with her own emotions, but mostly keeps a grip on them and remains respectful, if distant, towards others. Except in a few occasions when she cannot help herself and lashes out. But then realizes that she was wrong and comes around to apologizing sincerely.
The second main character is the ghost of another girl of similar age, existing in a very different situation, but connected to the first one in ways that come to light at the end.
In this story, time itself bends: past and present briefly and imperfectly seem to overlap for a few minutes or a few hours, now and then, letting each girl move from her reality to the other's and back. So, in a way, each might be a ghost to the other (and there is a hint that this is the case in a rediscovered diary Marnie had kept many years before).
Magic and mystery rule; above all, this is a tale about the mystery and magic of love. It is also a very humane and moving story.
The animation is of the quality one expects in a Ghibli film. This is not about high drama and dare-devil action, as in “Mononoke”, or action plus deeply poetic story-telling as in “Kaguya”; it does not play as hard with one’s emotions as “The grave of the fireflies”, is not as boisterously fantastic as “Pom Poko”, or as amusing as “Porco Rosso” or “My neighbors the Tanakas”, or as heart-warming as “Kiki”, to mention some of the studio's great achievements, but it is a great small piece of art all the same, as well as a feather in the cap of Hiromasa Yonebayashi that directed it (his second movie after “Arrietty”, also adapted from an English story).
Comparisons have been made, nonetheless, to some of those former movies by some professional critics and, in conclusion, “Marnie” has been declared by them to be a “minor Ghibli.” I disagree: those are comparisons between apples and butterflies. This movie, as those other ones of that wonderfully creative enterprise, is in a kind all its own, and should be seen that way.
As of this writing, “Marnie” is in the list of candidates for an Oscar in the “Best Animated Film” category. Given the tremendous amount of wind in the sails of “Inside Out”, I fully expect the latter to win the prize. “Inside Out” is, in my opinion, an inferior product, if brilliantly executed, since it, after all, comes from Pixar. It is about a girl of about same age as in “Marnie” that is also in the grip of her emotions, but the message here is that it is no big deal to act up, to the distress of others, even when one’s own family is struggling with unexpected and serious problems: after all, we are ruled by our emotions and that gives us a permanent “get out of jail” pass. A great message to all kids out there already “old enough to understand”?
I think not.
So, in my heart of hearts, I am rooting for “Marnie.”

Great movie. However, there's no title printed on the spine of the steelbook version, even though the promotional image shows one. (All of the other Studio Ghibli steelbook movies have their titles printed on the spine, so it looks weird when they are all on display).

Look up on Reddit "When Marnie Was There Replacement cases" and a forum should show up and give you a link to the replacement steelbook form to fill out from shout factory for a new one.

*Update* Got my new steelcase from shout factory already with the spine info. Updated to a 5 star.

Underground Reborn

The Final Curtain (Volume 2: Part 9)

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 23, 2016

Verified Purchase

When the say 'All good things must come to an end' it really is something you never want to hear. In this case knowing that the studio that gave the world some of the most beautiful films of the last 30 years is closing it's doors is heartbreaking. Studio Ghibli finally made a name for its self in the western world and the whole library of its films are unlike anything you will ever experience. The final film in this collection, 'When Marnie Was There' could not have been a more perfect conclusion to Ghibli's legacy.

Based on a heart warming tale we see a coming of age story with a heart warming supernatural twist. The characters are so charming and the English voice cast chosen in Haliee Steinfeld, John C. Reille and Kathy Bates is wonderful. As always the animation is stunning and watching a story taking place in the peaceful countryside made me feel like all my stress had gone away for just a little while. However, the story is a beautiful blend of joy and sorrow as the two main characters Anna and Marnie develop a one of a kind friend ship as they peel away the layers of the pasts and share their inner most secrets with one another. It is a story filled with hope, love and loss and the ending will definitely produce a tear or more.

For me, tears were definitely shed just knowing that the pioneering team of Miyazaki and Takahata have 'officially' concluded their epic adventure into the world of animation. They proved that animation is a genre that can be developed for all kinds of audiences and that traditional cell animation is an art form that is far from dead. Each time they exposed new wonders and dived ever deeper into its beauty and their product as well as their awards, have shown that time and time again.

Complete your Studio Ghibli journey with this heartwarming conclusion and I am sure you will happy that you did.

Beautiful and magical

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on January 4, 2018

Verified Purchase

I'm starting to build up quite a collection of studio ghibli movies and this is absolutely right up there with my top favourites such as Spirited Away, Kiki & Howls moving castle. The story is beautiful and the characters are especially lovable and seem so real. I've only had this around a week and I've already watched it twice.

It's so relaxing and intriguing. As with most of these films, the little details are all placed right such as the music that plays when Anna is dreaming, the little moments when she is thinking back to things in her life. I don't want to give the story away but I would definitely recommend this.

Yes I too felt a little emotional at the end but it's such a beautiful story. For me I'd say it's a cross between Kiki's delivery service and Arietty although I found it a lot more interesting than the latter. Settle down for a cozy night with a hot drink and totally get lost in this wonderful story. You won't be disappointed.

This Blu-Ray reissue sorts out the problems of the original release

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on October 2, 2016

Verified Purchase

Fortunately, there are no skipping, freezing or strange laser discs sound problems with this Blu-Ray reissue when the main feature plays, in comparison to the original release.

With that said, When Marnie Was There is said to be Studio Ghibli's final film. If that is the case, then they ended on a very high note as I consider it to be one of their best and it happens to be one of my top 5 favourites from them. It has a very relatable and well developed main character who grows over the course of the film, a beautiful friendship between Anna and Marnie, stunning and detailed animation, beautiful visuals that makes you want to be in that world, an intriguing storyline with plenty of mystery and mature themes, an effective score and an emotionally spell-binding final act.

It's a wonderful reminder just how great animation can be as a medium and that it's an art form that can speak to anyone, not just kids. I highly recommend Ghibli fans, or even those who are new to the studio to check this film out. It's an emotional experience no one should have to miss.

Magical, moving story that will engross you. I kid you not.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on September 15, 2018

Verified Purchase

There has been so many glowing reviews of this film that there is very little I can add to it, except to back up that it is a truly wonderful film.

The story is intriguing and interesting; a misfit teenage girl, adopted and rebellious against everyone, is lovingly sent to her adopted mothers relatives to spend a summer holiday in the hope it may help mend her melancholy state. It is there that the journey begins of how the teenage protagonist finds understanding of her world and of others and of herself.

In simple terms, any film has two components: a visual part and audio part. The animation is superb; beautiful renditions of scenes that are both life like caricatures and conveying of mood. The actors are superb, their voices perfectly match their characters and deliver performances that are totally engaging and fit perfectly into the story and film.

Whilst younger viewers may not see the subtleties of the story they will be engrossed by the wonderful, colourful animation that conveys oodles of emotion along the way, plus the intrigue of the solitary house and mysterious inhabitants including Marnie herself.

Adults will appreciate all these things plus latch on to the empathy conveyed for the main protagonists and those around them and all the events they shared.

It is a wonderful production; the characters look and move in a manner matching their personalities and roles, the landscapes encapsulate the mood of the story setting, the animation is sumptuous and a joy to look at; topping it off are the voices of the actors which convey perfectly their characters. The sound is wonderful, with incidental effects such as rain footsteps, etc. all deliciously conveyed and a pleasure to listen to; just listening to this DVD is itself an engaging experience that captivates the listener.

Dont hesitate to see this wonderful heart wrenching and uplifting film; you wont regret it.

A beautiful, rewarding, film

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on January 23, 2017

Verified Purchase

I had originally posted my review in the DVD section. My purchase was Blu-ray so I am posting it here instead.

First of all, my Blu-ray disc works perfectly - I assume, therefore that the technical problem has now been solved.

Some friends and I watched this film a couple of days ago. At first they objected at the prospect of watching a "cartoon". I objected, saying that this is an animated feature film and should not be dismissed as a "cartoon" (and therefore a simplistic children's film). They watched it and were transfixed.

They thought that it was constantly beautiful to look at, were astonished at its emotional depth and by the extent of character development. Their only (slightly) negative point they was that Marnie, who is clearly English, should be dubbed with an American accent. All I can say is that I wholeheartedly agree with their judgements. This is a beautiful, emotionally challenging and heart-warming film. I own copies of almost all the Studio Ghibli collection and I do hope that there will be more to come.

Blu Ray now working fine after replacement

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on October 7, 2016

Verified Purchase

When I first ordered from amazon I received one of the faulty Blu Rays, having returned it and ordered the most recent release from amazon I can confirm that the rerelease works perfectly.

As for the film itself, it's wonderful. Perhaps not as strong as some of Ghibli's best films it's amongst the best of the rest. It has more in common with films like the wind rises then Ghibli's more fantastical releases and the emotional complexity of its main character makes her a worthy addition to Ghibli's list of female protagonists.

For those looking for a more human story I highly recommend When Marnie Was There, and the animation is as stunning as always.
