Sophie (Mortimer) is a young woman who works hard in a shop making pretty hats. After meeting the magical wizard Howl (Bale) her life takes on a different turn, when The Witch of the Waste (Bacall) turns her into an ugly old crow. So Sophie does the only thing she can think to do and seeks refuge with her new pal in "Howl's Moving Castle," hoping to find a way to undo the spell that has been cast on her. From the novel by Diana Wynne Jones. (Tricia Spears)
