A secret family of four-inch people living inside the walls of a house had to save their home from an evil real estate developer? Sound familiar yet?
Yes, it is the one and only film The Borrowers.
It’s hard to believe that it’s nearly been 20 years (Yes, really 20!) since everyone’s family favourite film was released.
One does wonder after 20 years, what are all the cast members are up to now? Who is still acting? Who’s basically Hollywood royalty now?
