Howl's Moving Castle (Plot)

Sophie is a quiet girl who works in a small hat shop in the midst of a humble town. There is a legend passed between the girls who work in the hat shop of a strange sorcerer named Howl who lives in a moving castle and kidnaps pretty girls to steal their hearts (Sophie, in her humility, doesn't think she's very pretty, so she doesn't worry too much about it).
One day, as she's walking home, Sophie meets Howl without realizing who it is. He begins escorting her home, but they soon run into trouble, and he begins to fly up and away from it all, holding her hand and letting her learn how to fly also. Landing on a balcony, he leaves her to go back to his castle.
That night, however, upon closing the shop (with no one else there), she encounters a strange woman who turns out to be a sorceress (the Witch of the Waste). The witch, desiring Howl's heart for herself and no other, puts a spell on Sophie, turning her into a 90-year-old lady (that's what you see on my profile picture).
Sophie leaves home to search for a cure to her sudden 'disease,' and, in the land of the Waste, runs into the Moving Castle. Going inside, she discovers a boy who is Howl's Apprentice, a Fire named Calcifer that can talk, and realizes that Howl is actually a good-natured magician who doesn't prey on pretty girls; rather, he is being "hunted" by various witches, etc., who desire his love and his heart.
In the ensuing and unfolding events of the rest of the movie, she tries (with Howl's help) to break the spell.

P.ost S.cript- It's based on the book Howl's Moving Castle.
