Here’s something I was fooling around with a few years back, then I put it away and forgot it until yesterday when I uncovered it again.
I found that it’s best, for anagrams in general, to first find individual words you can get out of a phrase and then seeing what you can do with the leftover letters. Out of THE SECRET OF NIMH I found some pretty appropriate ones: MICE (though not MOUSE), MOTHER, NEST, SCHEME (in reference to Jenner), TIM (though not TIMOTHY). Curiously I could almost-but-not-quite get the names of the other Brisby kids, all but one or two letters. Same with NICODEMUS & JUSTIN. Anyway, here’s the best ones I found:
THEN HER SOFT MICE
OH, HEFT STERN MICE
MOTHER? FECES HINT! (Gotta go! :lol: Might Timothy have said that while bedridden?)
IF NOT THE SCHEMER
HE INFECTS, MOTHER
CHIEF NEST MOTHER (An official title for Mrs. B?)
MOTHER SNITCH FEE
THE ONCE-FRESH TIM (But not so much now!)
HERE, TIM, SON, FETCH! (But after you’re out of bed.)
TIM, FETCH HER NOSE
TIM, STONE HER CHEF
TORN THIEF SCHEME
THEN SCHEME FOR IT
NO, FIT THE SCHEMER
FOREST CHIN THEME
FINE CHEST, MOTHER (Might that have been a compliment from Jonathan?)
That’s all I got for now. Anyone else feel free to mix it up some more.

Anagraming sounds pretty cool, I'm gonna have to try it.

Actually I figured there had to be a place or three for anagrams on the net.
I noticed while scrolling and skimming thru the list that they were arranged with the two-word combinations first, then three, four and five. In the strictest sense, it doesn’t list
all possible combinations, since there seemed to be only one using the same set of words. For example, I found CHIEF MOTHER NEST but not CHIEF NEST MOTHER. But there were a few classics that I wish I’d come up with first: some that tie in with the movie uncannily, like RECENT HOME SHIFT or CRONIES HEFT THEM; others hilariously, like CRETINS HEFT HOME (Hey! These are supposed to be smart rats!)
This list has a lot of combos that make little sense grammatically even if they use real words; I try to come up with ones that make a licertainli amount of sense.
Didn’t get far into the four- and five-word combos, too numerous to get into right now.
Since this list doesn’t recognize proper names, there aren’t any with TIM! Take that, Wordsmith! :P

Or a faux-biopic about a Chinese-American everyman who happens to repeatedly become a part of world-changing events. lol

Oh, you're cute.
All right, then...How about we make it a little more authentic and include my middle name, Alan. I'll let you do the work. wink
