This is one of my all time favourite films. I love Hayley Mills. I love how upbeat this film is.

This is a link to the imdb.com page:

Pollyanna always finds things to be glad about, but gets in trouble for speaking her mind.

Quote:
Pollyanna (1960)

Pollyanna Whittier (talking about her hand me down dress): I'm sorry about the dress, Aunt Polly. My Father said it was a size too big, but that I should be glad it wasn't a pair of boy's trousers.

Aunt Polly Harrington: Well, that's hardly anything to be glad about.

Pollyanna Whittier: Well, my father always used to say...

Aunt Polly Harrington: Yes, well, never mind what your father used to say. Pollyanna, this is going to be your new home now, and I hope you'll be very happy with me. Nancy will show you to your room.

Pollyanna Whittier: I'm very glad you sent for me, Aunt Polly. Your home is very lovely.

Aunt Polly Harrington: Thank you.

Pollyanna Whittier: It must make you awfully glad.

Aunt Polly Harrington: Glad?

Pollyanna Whittier: That you're so very rich!

[Reverend Ford starts to cough. Nancy takes Pollyanna out of the room]

Nancy Furman: Honestly!

Pollyanna Whittier: Did I say something wrong?

Nancy Furman: Well, let's just say there are about sixty-eleven things you could've said besides that!

That movie always makes me think of this comic:

But for all the flack it sometimes catches for being too optimistic, I've got to agree. That kid's adorable as a box of puppies.
