Summary: Great movie for the entire family
Review: This "is" the wonderful world of Disney, to bad it isn't Walt's anymore.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Pollyanna is Primo- The Greatest!
Review: This became one of my three favorite movies of all time when I was a child- and remains so (along with The Little Mermaid and The Princess Bride). Whenever I need a "pick-me-up" I can put in this happy little orphan video, laugh, cry, and lift my spirits. I love it! I wish there were more happy movies made today.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Story That cherishes your heart
Review: This film, although very different from The book is a must to your Disney films collections. Hayley Mills Recieved an OScar for he role which i must admit was like eating 'Norwegin smoked salmon and Iranian Caviar toppeld with bubbling Champagne'. I think that this film deservs to be cherished over again and again.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I'm Glad I Saw This Movie
Review: This is a delightful film for folks of all ages. The Glad Game is not a game -- it's a way of life, a positive attitude. When young Pollyanna and her father were disappointed that the package from a missionary relief organization contained not a doll but crutches, they determined they would find something to be glad about. After a bit of thought, they decided to be glad they didn't NEED the crutches! At the end of the show, though, when Pollyanna is unable to walk due to an injury sustained falling from a tree, you have to think she would have been glad to have had those crutches.

Summary: The Perfect Disney DVD!
Review: This is what DisneyDVD should be!

Not only is this classic live-action Disney film beautifully restored and brought to DVD format, the "Vault Disney Collection" format has created a modern masterpiece, combining 21st Century technology with timeless Disney storytelling.

Disc One includes the restored film of "Pollyanna", along with audio commentary from Hayley Mills and director David Swift.

In particular, Disc Two is worth the full price of admission for this set. "Pollyanna: Making of a Masterpiece" does a wonderful job of revealing Walt Disney's soft spot for nostalgia and the memories of youth. Walt Disney was much more than a "brand name". He was a respected member of his community and was devoted to a family he truly cherished. Also included here is "Re-creating Pollyanna's America"; and "1912". Providing the background for this important story is half the fun of this DVD. The "Lost Treasures" section includes Walt Disney's original TV introductions, which set him apart as television's most beloved personality in the 1950's and 60's. Also included are Production Archives for the film, and the "1960 Disney Studio Album" (video scrapbook) combine for an unforgettable DVD experience.

Congratulations to those responsible for creating the "Vault Disney Collection" DVDs. Walt would be proud!

Summary: A Beautiful Movie that Will Touch Your Heart!
Review: This movie is a very touching movie about a young girl who shines light on everyone around her. Pollyanna (Hayley Mills) is an orphan who comes to live with her aunt Polly Harrington (Jane Wyman). But her aunt is too concerned with other matters than with her little niece. Her aunt doesn't notice that Pollyanna goes around, playing the "Glad Game", and brightening up everyone around her, including the old town snob (Agnes Moorehead). Only until she has a bad accident does she realize how many people she's touched! I would highly reccomend this movie!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What a darling movie!
Review: This movie is so good! I thought no movie could be better than those of Shirley Temple, and I was always hoping a film similar to Heidi would be released. Luckily I found "Pollyanna" on DVD. Wow! I sort of pushed my Shirley Temple gift set near the back and brought forth my new Vault Disney DVD collection. Pollyanna is very similar to Heidi and I recommend it to fans of that movie. This movie is about a little orphan girl-Pollyanna-who is sent to live with her strict aunt. Everyone in the town is always grumpy, but Pollyanna teaches them her "glad game" and makes everyone lovable and cheerful. Only at the end of the movie when a terrible tragedy takes place, does everyone realise how much they appreciate Pollyanna. A wonderful family film that isn't only for children, but for adults too. The DVD comes with lots of documentaries, interviews, pictures, and some music too! Even a commentary! Trust me, fans of Shirley Temple may also appreciate Hayley Mills too!

Summary: Can't All Disney Live Action Releases Match This?
Review: What a wonderful movie with a great collection of extras. Too bad Disney can't do this with all of their live action releases. The transfer is wonderful and the extras add so much to what is already a fantastic movie. Great job Disney! Now, let's do it with the rest of your releases!
