Line 17:
* [[Comedic Underwear Exposure]]: Happens to Pod when Jenny attempts to look at his anatomy!
* {{spoiler|[[Death by Adaptation]]: Eggletina, who is set up as a [[Posthumous Character]] in the books, but is later revealed to be alive. In the film, there seems to be little doubt that she died.}}
* [[The Film of the Book]]: One of the many, ''many'' adaptations of ''[[The Borrowers]]''. For some reason, filmmakers from all over the world are attracted to the book. Filmmakers from England, the USA, and Japan all had a shot at adapting the novel.
* [[Gilded Cage]]: Arrietty lives in luxury, with her father bringing her anything she could want, but is kept completely cut off from the outside world.
* [[Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain]]: Borderline case with Mildeye; he ''is'' a genuine threat to the Borrowers largely because he's so much bigger than them, but he bumbles so much that you almost have to feel sorry for him when he loses out and makes a fool of himself. It helps that he's played by [[Stephen Fry]], no doubt.
