Karigurashi no Arrietti

Studio Ghibli's latest animated feature hits theatres(in Japan) July 17, 2010. The story, written by Hayao Miyazaki, is based on the fantasy novel The Borrowers by Mary Norton. Hiromasa Yonebayashi will be making his directorial debut. Lucky guy!

What got my attention was the soundtrack, stunning by the way, which was written and performed by French harpist Cecil Corbel. It's sounding to be another memorable score for a Ghibli movie, and hopefully it's gonna go up there with the ranks of the other classics like Nausicaa, My Neighbour Totoro, Laputa, Porco Rosso, Kiki's Delivery Service, among others.

Gonna be a long wait 'fore I see this one...
