Movie Description
A story about a young orphan who is thrust into the dark and mysterious lives of her widowed uncle and his crippled son when she comes to live in their run-down Victorian home.
Synopsis
Animated version of Frances Hodgson Burnett's 1911 novel. Ten-year old Mary Lennox is a homely, spoiled rich girl living in colonial India with her very aloof parents. They frequently attend elegant parties while leaving her with servants who tend to her every whim. But when her parents are killed, Mary's life changes drastically. She's shipped off to England to live in the enormous manor home of Lord Archibald Craven, an old friend of her father's, and his invalid son Colin. Lord Craven has become a miserable recluse since his wife's death, ignoring his son and leaving the household management to Mrs. Medlock, an iron-handed, old-school authoritarian. In this cold environment the children -- with a little help from spirited maid Martha Sowerby and her younger brother Dickon -- manage to find happiness in a special garden hidden away for years.
