The Cat Returns
2002
75 minutes
Japanese w/subtitles (Probably in English, too)
I've seen this movie twice, and loved it both times. One of
my favorite Studio Ghibli movies. A young girl, Haru, rescues a cat from starvation,
and later she rescues another cat from being run over and soon learns that this
is no ordinary cat, but the Crown Prince, and she is to be rewarded with all
sorts of wonderful (to a cat) things — mice included. When she learns she is to
marry the prince, she also learns she cannot turn all this marvelous largess
off, and must find the Cat Bureau to seek help. Pulled into the Prince's land,
she begins the process of becoming a cat in order to marry him. She doesn't
want him, he doesn't want her, and oh, myyyy. Totally Family Friendly.
