DVD Report – May 22nd

As is the case on any week which sees one of their releases, the best new film this week is the latest from the legendary Studio Ghibli: The Secret World of Arrietty. Based on Mary Norton’s classic The Borrowers, the story follows the adventures of Arrietty who lives in peace with her people under the floorboard of a house, and her dangerous friendship with a human boy. This film was a massive hit in Japan, and also found a surprisingly large audience at the US box office. Definitely worth a look.

United is based on the true story of Manchester United’s legendary "Busby Babes", the youngest side ever to win the Football League and the 1958 Munich Air Crash that claimed eight of the their number. The film draws on first-hand interviews with the survivors and their families to tell the inspirational story of a team and community overcoming terrible tragedy.
