About this product

Product Information

There were those in 1989 who bellyached that Disney Television's POLLY was a far from faithful adaptation of Eleanor Porter's classic novel POLLYANNA. What they meant was that POLLY did not resemble the 1960 Hayley Mills movie version of POLLYANNA, which itself played fast and loose with the source material. In POLLY, THE COSBY SHOW's Keshia Knight Pulliam portrays the "Glad Girl" who brings along a satchelful of happiness and optimism when she visits her wealthy aunt one summer. Tranposing Porter's all-white story to a middle-class black community in the Alabama of the 1950s (Celeste Holm is the only white costar) isn't nearly as self-conscious or gimmicky as it seems on paper. Nor is any damage done to the original by adding musical numbers, especially when taking into consideration that the film was directed by renowned choreographer Debbie Allen (the sister of Phylicia Rashad, who plays Polly's aunt--and who in 1989 was costarring with Keshia Knight Pulliam on a weekly basis on THE COSBY SHOW). POLLY scored a boffo ratings hit, prompting Disney TV to assemble a 1990 sequel, POLLY: COMIN' HOME!

    Very good movie. Not a fan of Disney. True to it's nature and purpose; starts out with death. Little girl loses both her parents in a tragic accident.

    I saw this movie when it first came out in the 90s. My kids and I loved the Movie fee. First time finding the movie less than $30. Can't understand why changing the characters to Black increase the cost of a Disney movie by $30.

  • Polly is one of the most winning remakes

    Just a bit pricey but had to get it anyway for its terrific dancing and music. Watched it with my niece (it was a present for her!) and she liked it as much as I hoped. I am a great old movie fan, but Polly beats Pollyanna in terms of fun!

    I've been looking for this DVD for years. It was always one of my favorite movies as a kid. I love it just as much now as I did back then.
