Although strictly speaking Mischa in Lost and Delirious is too old for this site, we've included it because both I and Alex find this movie magical. Pauline and Victoria, sixteen-year-old girls, are best friends in a boarding school, share a room, and are in love with each other. Mischa's character, Mary 'Mouse' Bradford, arrives at the school and is assigned to the same room. Loving parents don't put their children into a boarding school, at least not in case of these three. Mary has just lost her mother, Victoria's are emotionally distant, and Pauline never knew her real mother. But all seems well, the girls having fun together, until Victoria's younger sister Allison (Emily VanCamp, also in the cast of Everwood, who makes a good annoying brat of a little sister) finds out about the love affair, and Victoria must choose between staying with Pauline or abandoning her to avoid disgrace from her family.

Mischa's character is very likeable, but it is Piper Perabo as Pauline who steals every scene she's in. The music of the introductory scene, narrated by Mischa, has some magically captivating quality that works tremendously well on both of us, and the rest of the movie lives up to the high standards the beginning sets.
