6. "Ponyo"
Director: Hayao Miyazaki; Cast: Frankie Jonas, Noah Cyrus, Tina Fey
2009 was a banner year for animation, but this small masterwork from Japanese legend Miyazaki stands out for its simplicity, elegant artistry and childlike sense of wonder. A loose adaptation of “The Little Mermaid,” “Ponyo” details the innocent and unwavering love between a young boy, Sosuke, and the title character—a sea creature with boundless curiosity about humans. It’s a true delight and a prime contender for the cutest movie ever made.
