Whisper of the heart is, I think, a delicately crafted piece of timelessness.
It is indeed an intrinsic account of the adolescent phase in one’s life,
from which the film reflects that, there is so much hidden beauty, in such
a busy time of your life. (This is coming from someone at the latter end of his teen years!)

The film was a very emotional affair, for which I am not ashamed to
have been part of! From love, to anxiety, and various feelings
which were provoked subtly throughout Shizuku’s journey, it was such an uplifting experience that I too rate it as one of my all time favourites.

I’m just glad I found this blog, and other like-minded people to myself
that share the indescribable sensation that one can experience, which is this film!
That being said, I’m also a huge fan of studio ghibli! I keep coming back for more…

I was really entranced by the beauty of the artwork in the film when I first watched it when I was around seven, but being a teenager now I can really relate to and appreciate the meaning of the plot. Coming of age is…uncomfortable, there are times when I hope I could find my path like Shizuku and Seiji did.

Thanks for putting up the main theme Oka no Machi, I downloaded it ’cause I loved the movie so much! It is sooo true that this film is underrated, I don’t think any of my friends watched it, shame ‘Whisper’ isn’t more well-known.
