Not the most faithful adaptation in the world, though it keeps the general spirit of the novel, which is really more important. The lead actress carries the film extremely well for how old she was at the time, and the supporting characters are equally strong (with the possible exception of the actor who played Colin). Dame Maggie Smith is a particular stand out, unsurprisingly. But man, the thing about this film that has always stuck with me is that it's just pretty. Every set piece in the film is full of character and atmosphere, and the surrounding English moors are filmed beautifully. It's really just lovely to watch.

I used to really enjoy this film as a child. It is very heartwarming and I just loved the idea of having my own secret garden. Still enjoy it as an adult too.

To be honest, I remember seeing previews of this movie way back when it came out (in 1993) and thinking to myself, "WHY would anyone want to see such a film and why would anyone make it?" Well, about five years later it appeared on TV one night and I start More
