The Secret Garden 1993 Reviews

     Based on Frances Hodgson Burnett's children's novel. Mary (Kate Maberly), a strong-willed English girl lost her parents in an earthquake in India, then is sent to England to live with an unfeeling uncle in his mansion. Mary's mood lightens when she finds the key to a neglected garden and brings not only the roses but the entire house to life again.

     This movie was very inspirational, at a time crisis, this beautiful little girl was able to figure out a way to help not only herself by creating this wonderful garden to play in but in the end, all 3 of the children.  If we could...

Although not quite as good as the 1949 film starring Margaret O'Brien, this remake is a well paced atmospheric eerie  retelling of the classic Fancis Hodgon Burnett tale.

The story is about Mary Lennox, an orphan who is sent to live in a large old mansion with her reclusive uncle that has many secrets.   One of them is the secret neglected garden that she intends to nurture back to life.

Another is....   ah... but you should watch the movie to learn of more....

It may be a bit too subtle and slow paced for young children, but everyone else should thoroughly enjoy it.

This movie was the perfect movie for me. I am a nature lover and I think it would touch anyone else who loves nature. The story line is so beautiful and it has a mysteriousness about it through out the whole film. This is a great children's,and family film. The book is just as good as the movie,but a little bit better because it allows you to be able to imagine what the garden would look like thus enabling you to create your own Secret Garden :).
