Something Anna was never able to do before as she always believed she had nobody to turn to. Through their secret interactions, Anna and Marnie open up to each other, often confiding their secrets. This is where she meets Marnie, a girl that lives in the marsh house, who only Anna appears to see. Under the advice of a doctor, Anna is soon sent away to stay with some relatives in a seaside town. We soon learn that Anna’s insecurities stem from the discovery that her foster parents are actually paid to take care of her by the government, thereby making her question if they truly loved her at all. Something that most girls, myself included, can relate to when we are around than age. The film revolves around twelve-year-old Anna Sasaki, a shy girl who is insecure about her appearance, and considers herself as an outcast amongst her peers. Robinson’s When Marnie Was There (1967), I was willing to make an exception. I don’t normally watch movies, but for the Studio Ghibli’s animated film adaption of Joan G.
