Product Description A young girl comes to an embittered town and confronts its attitude with her determination to see the best in life. Studio: Buena Vista Home Video Release Date: 03/18/2003 Starring: Hayley Mills Jane Wyman Run time: 134 minutes Rating: G
Optimism shines in this classic 1960 Disney film starring Hayley Mills. When the newly orphaned Pollyanna comes to live with her wealthy aunt in Harrington Town, life looks promising. Despite her aunt's insistence on propriety and modesty, Pollyanna's cheerful, optimistic ways spread throughout the town--converting even a cantankerous recluse and a whining hypochondriac. Only Aunt Polly has trouble welcoming her young niece into her heart. In a clash between the townspeople and Aunt Polly over local politics, it's Pollyanna's influence that helps individual townspeople find the inner strength to stand up for their own beliefs. When Pollyanna is involved in a serious accident, Aunt Polly finally realizes how much she loves her niece. Can Aunt Polly and the entire town somehow restore Polly's optimism and ensure a full recovery? Pollyanna is wholesome entertainment that will leave the entire family eager to play the "glad game." --Tami Horiuchi

Pollyanna July 11, 2010 Mary Kathleen It was wonderful! Better than I remembered when I saw it as a child. Well worth purchasing!
I'm still a little girl at heart! May 23, 2010 Donna Kusterer 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I'm 50 years old and grew up watching Haley Mills in many of Walt Disney movies and love them all, but my favorites are Pollyanna and The Parent Trap. They bring back happy, relaxing thoughts of my childhood and I can watch them over and over without getting tired of them. Any mother with little girls, or boys like I had, will love these old movies as well. I had a collection of most all of Haley Mills movies in VHS and am now starting over my collection with DVD's! You'll love Pollyanna - I promise!
Simply charming! May 9, 2010 josephine (San Jose, CA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I guess we really don't need a another review to say how wonderful and heartwarming this movie is but... if anyone out there has not seen this classic, you should see it. It is a movie for the whole family with humor, music, talent, and an old fashion heart warming story that makes you appreciate life a little more. Highly recommend for young and old!
A Good Reminder that Attitude is Everything November 10, 2009 amguen (somewhere in the middle) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love this movie for so many reasons, but the most prominent one is Pollyanna's attitude. Her missionary father taught her the "Glad Game" when she mistakenly received a pair of crutches instead of the doll she had hoped for. He told her to look for the good in every situation. After some thinking, she decided she was glad that she did not need to use the crutches. She embraced the concept of the game fully and touched the lives of everyone she came into contact with. Her optimism was contagious and soon the whole community was transformed.
One line I loved in the movie comes when Rev. Ford read the inscription on Pollyanna's necklace, "When you look for the bad in mankind, expecting to find it, you surely will". Though it wasn't an actual quote by Abraham Lincoln as the movie indicated, the words are true nonetheless.
An altogether uplifting family film and a most pleasant experience. No need to worry about foul language or any other offensive material that is so prominent in today's world.
