Pollyanna.
A little kindness can travel far.
An orphan moves in with her strict aunt and brings a hopeful outlook to a divided town. Her habit of looking for something good begins to change her neighbors, until she faces a serious challenge herself.
Watch the official trailer ↗Why it’s a little special
A patient character story about how small acts affect a community. Its optimism works best when paired with discussion of the moments when cheerful advice is not enough.
BEFORE YOU PRESS PLAY
Know the story.
Know your little people.
Parental death, isolation and a serious fall that leaves a child injured. Adults discuss illness, surgery and possible disability; the film's pace is slower than most modern family comedies.
Our notes are a starting point, not an age recommendation. G and PG films can still include intense moments. You know your family best.
