The 1987 version of The Secret Garden


I think this is the youngest I've ever seen Colin Firth. Secret Garden is one classic that I prefer to read rather than watch, I don't think there's been a movie yet that really does it justice. As I've mentioned elsewhere, some stories depend on the internal transformation of the main character, and it's hard to convey that in film.
