Movie Review: The Secret Garden

Movie Review: The Secret Garden. Based on the book by Frances Hodgson Burnett. Family film. Rated G. The movie starts off with Mary, a spoiled English girl, living in India with her parents. An earthquake erupts and both her parents are killed. Orphaned now Mary is shipped off to England to live with her emotionally distant uncle and complaining cousin. Though they all live in a big mansion Mary isn't happy with her situation. She meets a new friend and together with her wheelchair bound cousin, they tend a secret garden on the mansion's grounds. This garden awakens feeling in her uncle and he learns to be a better father. Sweet film. Little girls should like it.
