The Secret of NIMH

There is something about Mrs. Frisby.

Frustrated with the Walt Disney studio's reluctance to produce full-length animated films, Don Bluth and a number of animators left the studio in the early '80s with the intent of creating movies in the style of Disney's classics. The Secret of NIMH is the first film Bluth produced after leaving the studio. Adapted from Robert C. O'Brien's acclaimed children's book Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of N.I.M.H., the film is about a widowed mouse whose home is threatened; also, one of her children is gravely ill. On her way to find help, she discovers NIMH, a secret society of highly-intelligent rats who have escaped from a nearby science lab. This movie has beautiful animation I mean for 1982 the animation is pitch Perfect, The characters are so remember-able and the actress who voiced (Mr.s Frisby) something about that women that I just love but sadly she passed away five years later.

Good review. This one has been on my imaginary "To Watch" list for a while, and you just bumped it up a few spots.
