Spirited Away
An animated movie from Japan, originally titled "Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi." Created by Hayao Miyazaki who also created Princess Mononoke. Spirited Away tells the story of a young girl who finds another world full of spirits that capture her parents. She must find a way to free them while surviving in the world herself.
The movie has been released in two formats: one with English subtitles and one dubbed over in English. I suggest viewing the subtitle version to get the full viewing experience; however, if you are viewing it with small children who cannot read, the dubbed version is best. This movie is a delight to children and adults.
