  • Wow loud enough you just blew my headphone's

  • The anime was fantastic

  • Wow, I haven't seen this since I was in grade school. Like back in 3rd or 4th grade.

  • Tom felton -3

  • @thevideogamecomando the secret world of arrietty is based on the book and series

  • Arrietty

  • So Bilbo Baggins isn't the smallest person Ian Holm ever played!

  • yea, darn Hollywood.

    down with Justin Bieber

    and save the whales.

  • This is like the secret world of arriety cool!

  • i used to adore this! love it love it love it!

    The mum's slightly annoying tho. Never noticed that before....

  • MORE VIEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • There was a special Christmas adaptation of The Borrowers on BBC this year, didn't think much of it, it was like The Borrowers in the 21st century. Spiller on a motorcycle? Arrietty looking much older than 16, Mrs Driver knowing about them from the beginning...the Clocks didn't even seem to live under a clock....I know it was only an adaptation & that it tried to be different from the rest, but it was just boring! I'm getting this version on DVD soon, both series are on Amazon. =D

  • if there called borrowers then why do they steal stuff??? i never see them borrow.... this should be called the stealers

  • @peymaania LMFAO

  • Woke up this morning, making tea and all of a sudden i started saying the borrowers...i remember watching this growing up in Fiji, never missed it, was great and fun to watch. And after 14yrs later am watching a clip of it. Bring back memories and friends that i use to watch with....ahhh the good old days!

  • @22871987 By saying the borrowers I guess you mean seeing them.

  • @SiStersOFthe80s me too, is this the 1892 version

  • Comment removed

  • @RoshiniStarhh97 ,,,Isn't in this.

  • I remember when these were on the tv :)

  • I thought the Miyazaki film was really lacking. But that seems to happen whenever Miyazaki doesn't do his own material. Howl's Moving Caste had problems too. Sure, it looked wonderful and the music was beautiful but there were story points that made no sense.

    So anyway, I'm here to watch this at the recommendation of my bff from the UK. :)

    Hi UK,

    Love,

    USA

  • @sailtheplains im sure he had his own reasons. i find his work amazing. dont get me wrong tho xD

  • If you're a true fan of The Borrowers, get yourself to a cinema which is showing the new Studio Ghibli animated adaptation of The Borrowers called 'Arrietty'. It opened today in the UK (29th July 2011). Or if you read this post after the cinemas stop showing it, you will soon be able to pre-order the DVD or Blu-ray. It is absolutely fantastic, and transports the story to modern day Tokyo.

  • It brings tears to my eyes when I see the start of this movie. I can probably recite the first half an hour word for word as it was definitely my favourite movie and even now I still love it. I first started watching this on my rickety old video player back in 2001 when I was just 4 years old. Ever since then it has been a tradition to watch it at Christmas time. I am 14 now and I think I will continue to watch this until I am 114 (if I live that long). This film is amazing!

  • I finally got this movie on dvd! I love it! In all honesty though, they never actually borrow anything. they most definitely steal everything. when you borrow something youre supposed to return it, no? :P Still, this movie is really awesome and take me back to childhood for sure. :)

  • @ClericOdie

    Um, that's supposed to be the joke... they're called Borrowers, but they actually steal.

  • @ClericOdie They may not really borrow but the Littles certainly live up to their name.

  • How many different versions of The Borrowers are there? It seems like some are with British actors and other versions with American actors. If anyone knows how many total versions and the years that each one was released please post.

    Thanks

  • i always liked this version so much more than the movie!

  • They're going to have a borrowrs anime in July - "Karigurashi no Arrietty." LOOK IT UP! >:3

  • I loved this version when it was on the telly! The characters are much more developed than the film (which was a disappointment- stick with the BBC!) I remember thinking Arriety was so beautiful, I wanted to look just like her :-)

  • Thank you!

    I love this series so much.

    Had fond memories watching this with my family years ago, and desperately wanted to see it again.

    Thanks again :).

  • This isn't a movie, anyway. This is the low budget BBC version from 1992. And Spiderman 3 was rubbish.

  • Yea I know I was kidding.

  • @pipkin3 ... Um, no. It may have also been a series, but this footage is from the original Borrowers movie. 

  • Comment removed

  • I have an even older one on DVD that my dad found for me but the sound is very off and I didn't like it very much.

  • I can never say thank you enought !!!

  • Thanks so much for uploading this!! I saw the second one on dvd this summer and it was soooo good. it made me all nostalgic for video cassettes and being seven years old.

  • The mother in this, the actress read the book for audio tape. I used to have it as a kid.

  • WHERES TOM FELTON :(

  • This is the original bbc series not the movie version

  • He's in the 1997 version

  • i am 10 yrs old and i think that its great

  • i had read the book first in school and then i watched it wow... its been so long the last time i watched this was in 4th grade... loved both versions.. thatnks for the upload

  • Okay, the Mother is Shaun's mother from "Shaun of the Dead" and the father was Ash from "Alien."

  • The father Pod is also Bilbo from The lord of the rings.

  • haha! yes!!! i was watching this yesterday and i sat there for at least ten minutes trying to figure it out. i laughed so hard when i did!! the mother is on something else i have seen... but i cant figure it out!!

  • Wow it was made as long ago as 1992. I used to watch it. It must have been repeated a few times. I even remembered the tune.

  • this version is 1000x better than the new one

  • please can anyone tell me where i ca see the full movie on the web!!
