	Whisper in the Heart - Memorial cremation jewelry and urn pendant keepsake items, for coping with loss
		The Whisper in the Heart Collection is a type of memorial jewelry, (tiny cremation containers / bottles / urn jewelry, pendants, lockets and keepsakes) that gave me something tangible of Whisper, to hold on to and cherish.
		But now I believe ^Whisper^ would be honored that we now help the families of all types of angels.
		Whisper was, and will always be, my heart, soul, and inspiration.

	WHISPER OF THE HEART - DVD
		Three years after directing Studio Ghibli's Hayao Miyazaki-scripted Whisper of the Heart, and before he was able to complete a second picture for the venerable Japanese institution, ace animator and Miyazaki protégé Yoshifumi Kondo passed away of an aneurysm at the age of 47.
		Whisper of the Heart tells a refreshingly ordinary tale of a bright little girl that is unfortunately torpedoed a time or three by tacked-on dream/fantasy sequences.
		A mixed bag, then, Whisper of the Heart is another nice coming-of-age story for a young girl by an important artist (Miyazaki) whose great warmth seems to flow from a desire to mentor, whether the subject be his daughter or the promising young artists he hopes to mold into successors.

		Whisper of the Heart was the only film Yoshifumi Kondo directed before his untimely death at age 47, but its understated charm stands as a monument to his talent.
		Whisper of the heart is one of the most sensitive, heartwarming and beautiful films ever made.
		The setting of Whisper Of The Heart (original title: Mimi wo Sumaseba) is a typical Tokyo suburb, and the main protagonists are Suzuka and Seiji, a girl and a boy in junior high school.

		Whisper of the Heart's magic comes from the depth of its characters and its realistic yet idealistic approach to the situation.
		Whisper of the Heart is a film that would make you feel warm, fuzzy, and make you reminisce about times gone by.
		Whisper of the Heart can probably be considered as one of Studio Ghibli's lesser known works, especially when compared to the immensely popular "Spirited Away", "Princess Mononoke", and even "My Neighbor Totoro".

	Whisper of the Heart (Mimi o Sumaseba) - film reviews
		Whisper of the Heart tells the story of Shizuku, a 15-year-old girl who is spending her last summer months before entering high school.
		Whisper of the Heart is directed by a man named Yoshifumi Kondo, who most of you won’t recognize, but is actually one of the giants of Japanese animation.
		He has always been something of a romantic, and Whisper of the Heart allows him to fully indulge in a side that he only showed in bits and parts (notably Porco Rosso, Castle in the Sky, and Conan).

	Hong Kong Cinema - Whisper of the Heart DVD review (1999) - Studio Ghibli
		Whisper of the Heart — Yoshifumi Kondo was a key animator on many Studio Ghibli features and tipped as one of the directors to take over from Miyazaki who was considering retirement, but sadly passed away in 1998 after directing this debut feature.
		Whisper is a gentle film that takes its time to show us its teen leads finding first love and discovering who they want to be.
		Studio Ghibli have the uncanny ability to produce films that are at once beautiful, entertaining and moving, and Whisper of the Heart is yet another gem in their collection.

		A story of finding inspiration and trying to follow through to the best of ones abilities, Whisper of the Heart is a tender yet whimsical film that tugs just right at the heart strings.
		The story to Whisper of the Heart is one that in the end is very simple, and many people will find to be very predictable, probably even from just the first couple of minutes.
		Whisper of the Heart seems to warm my own heart every time I see it and this time was no exception.

		Fascinated with his prized possessions—an elaborate statue of a nattily dressed anthropomorphic cat called The Baron, a magnificent grandfather clock that depicts an unrequited love—she clings to the idea of the shop like a treasured secret, not realizing how close she is to connecting to the mysterious Seiji.
		While Whisper of the Heart features surprisingly little fantasy content for a Miyazaki film—the only truly fantastical sequences come in brief intervals to illustrate the story Shizuku begins writing about the Baron's adventures—it does have a fantasy connection.
		Whisper can be slow and overlong, particularly when dealing with Shizuku's home life, which mostly consists of mundane chores and minor familial clashes.

		Whisper of the Heart is a quiet, realistic film from Studio Ghibli, more in the style of Only Yesterday than the studio's action packed fantasies like Laputa.
		There is not much in the way of plot to the movie, it's more of a character study as we watch the main characters interact and grow with each other.
		The opening panarama of the new city at night in Whispers is the same as the closing scene in Ponpoko.

		Take heart -- Whisper of the Heart just might have that cure for anime burnout, with enough warm fuzzies to make a Tribble farmer green with envy.
		Here, the story _is_ the characters, and WotH has done an exquisite job creating for his viewers a complete cast of three-dimensional, believable, and fully _likable_ characters to sympathize and fall in love with.

		Whisper of the Heart, which Miyazaki didn’t direct, but did write and produce, is one of the best films to come out his Studio Ghibli.
		There’s a good deal of charm in the Whisper of the Heart, which follows a bookish 14-year-old girl as she discovers her first love, but it is tempered with a consistently high level of intelligence.
		It’s moments like these that lift Whisper of the Heart out of the ghetto where most anime lay and into the realm of truly great cinema.

		One of my good friends already watched Whisper of the Heart, courtesy of my library, and highly recommended it to me. So it seemed to be a good candidate for my third Studio Ghibli experience.
		Whisper of the Heart has the calm of a slice-of-life anime, with light romance and inspiration on the side.

		"Whisper of the Heart" may not be entirely one genre, but it works with an engrossing story, well drawn out characters, and a very sweet ending.
		While slightly drippy and polarizing for a more diverse audience, "Whisper of the Heart" is a great romance that you've probably never seen.

	The Trades - DVD Review: Whisper of the Heart
		"Whisper of the Heart" is new territory for me. I've seen Japanese animation before, of course.
		"Whisper of the Heart" is a romantic tale with bits of magical realism tossed in that encourages the viewer: Do what your heart tells you -- but keep in mind that it's never easy when you do things differently from everyone else, and if you fail you've got no one to blame but yourself.
		Based on the manga by Aoi Hiiragi, with storyboards and screenplay by Hayao Miyazaki, the only disappointing thing about "Whisper of the Heart" is that it never got a widescreen release in theaters so that American audiences could truly appreciate the quality of the animation.

		One notable caution about WotH is the non sequitur ending, which is sure to leave viewers scratching their heads.

		Like all things Miyazaki, Whisper of the Heart is a coming of age story infused with fantasy.
		Shizuku’s gentle and preoccupied parents, her bossy but loving older sister, her nosy classmates, and her heart broken best friend are all fully realized with their own motivations and idiosyncrasies.
		Whisper of the Heart is appropriate and engaging for all ages, but is perhaps most relevant for viewers who can identify closely with Shizuku and her search for love and autonomy.

		Shizuku, a junior-high school student is struggling to find out who she is. Whisper of the Heart takes you on a journey through her imagination and daily life as she makes decisions that will ultimately decide her future.
		Whisper is the only Studio Ghibli feature film directed by Yoshifumi Kondou.
		With the exception of an aerial fantasy sequence (apparently directed by Miyazaki), Whisper is staged in realistic suburban locations (Shizuku's classroom, the school library, the playground, her home, on the train, an antique repair shop) that are populated by regular human beings.

		Sometimes certain movies can delve a little too much on these angst-ridden elements, but in Whisper of the Heart, this is handled in a way that is not so overbearing (or frustrating even) to the viewer.
		All in all, Whisper of the Heart is a real winner as both a Studio Ghibli film and a Disney revamp, and I highly recommend it.
		Throughout the story, Suzuku wears her heart on her sleeze and makes choices that can only make sense to a girl her age; and this to me represents the magic of this movie.
