Pollyanna (2003)

In the grand yet austere residence of the wealthy and perpetually unsatisfied Lady Polly, arrives Pollyanna - an irresistibly cheerful, 11-year-old orphaned niece of Lady Polly. Her presence, initially grudgingly tolerated due to the relentless persuasion of Tom's ever-optimistic son Tim, the estate's jack-of-all-trades, soon becomes a beacon of joy. Her playful spirit and innocent mischief find a way to circumnavigate the rigid house rules, wrapping the staff around her little finger. Armed with an infectious 'happy game' passed down from her father, Pollyanna embarks on a mission of spreading warmth and camaraderie within the solemn village. Her unyielding resolve sees her successfully adopting a stray cat and dog, before setting her sights on the fellow 'orphan', Jimmy Bean. A chance encounter with the reclusive, wealthy neighbor Pendleton, nursing a broken leg and embroiled in an unfortunate mishap, sets off a chain of events. These incidents unearth buried secrets, entwining the pasts of their respective families, and setting the stage for an intriguing tale of friendship, hope, and resilience.
