Universal Studios Home Entertainment is offering SciFi Japan readers a chance to win the new Blu-ray + DVD Combo Pack of Studio Ghibli’s WHEN MARNIE WAS THERE (????????, Omoide no Maanii, 2014) from GKids. Based on the beloved young adult novel by Joan G. Robinson and directed by Hiromasa Yonebayashi (THE SECRET WORLD OF ARRIETTY), WHEN MARNIE WAS THERE is a haunting tale gorgeously rendered with its moonlit seascapes, glowing orchestral score, and powerful portrayals of friendship and belonging. When shy, artistic Anna moves to the seaside to live with her aunt and uncle, she stumbles upon an old mansion surrounded by marshes, and the mysterious young girl, Marnie, who lives there. The two girls instantly form a unique connection and friendship that blurs the lines between fantasy and reality. As the days go by, a nearly magnetic pull draws Anna back to the Marsh House again and again, and she begins to piece together the truth surrounding her strange new friend. The WHEN MARNIE WAS THERE Blu-ray + DVD Combo Pack features both the original Japanese audio track and the English version with voice actors Hailee Steinfeld, Kiernan Shipka, Geena Davis, John C. Reilly, and Vanessa Williams. Extras include The Making of WHEN MARNIE WAS THERE, storyboards, voice cast interviews, and trailers. The SRP is $24.99.
