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. Pollyanna is wholesome entertainment that will leave the entire family eager to play the "glad game."Read full review

I don't know what it's like around your house, but complaining has a voice more than I care to hear. This old-fashioned movie, based on the book, was a great reminder to all of us (whole family-mom, dad, boys, girl, teen) that we can choose to find something good in our situation if we choose to see it from that perspective. It has actually provided me with a platform to remind the kids when the complaining starts: we can find something to be "glad" about if we look for it!
I wanted to buy the movie as a birthday present for my granddaughter, so we could watch it together.
