Pro Krasnuyu Shapochku
(1977)
aka Little Red Riding Hood
A playful adaptation of Little Red Riding Hood. Production values are on the low side and there are no subtitles, but Yana's bubbly performance and huge smile, together with good music more than compensate.

An adorable movie for children, or anyone who can appreciate the charmingly uppity undertakings of the five-year-old Lotta.

Piccole labbra
(1978)
aka Little Lips
A man and a prepubescent girl fall in love in Italy of the World War I era. The film is famous for its unflinching treatment of the controversial subject, and for showing Katya body. A decent story, but poor execution.

One of Dakota's more entertaining roles as a completely anal retentive girl in a silly candy-colored comedy about Dr. Seuss's famous talking cat.

A lovely view on Swedish life through eyes of a child some hundred years ago, based on Astrid Lindgren's Madicken books. Jonna is likable and natural as Madicken, handling a range of emotions with ease.

A man is expected to have died in war, but returns home, with emotional issues, and distrupting everyone's life. Sarah shows excellent acting in the serious role of the older daughter.

Manny & Lo
(1996)
In one of her earlier roles, Scarlett plays Manny, a young girl who flees her foster home and runs away with her older sister. A peculiar but enjoyable film, with a performance from Scarlett that does not disappoint.
