Video clip

Dakota appears in the last four of ten ninety minute episodes of this Spielberg mini-series, which not so coincidentally happen to be the best episodes of the series. Dakota's character, Allie Keys, is the kind of role Dakota does best: intelligent, aware, and compassionate, while maintaining a youthful vulnerability. Although Dakota is present only in the last four episodes, she narrates the series throughout. This is requisite viewing for all Dakota fans. Dakota's performance as Allie impressed Spielberg and landed her the role as Rachel in War of the Worlds.
