Movie Review: Little Lord Fauntleroy
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a really great movie! My family and I liked it so much we decided to see the whole movie all at once instead of just one episode at a time. If you can, read the book first. Then see the movie. You will be happy you took the time to do both!

Movie Review: Little Lord Fauntleroy
Summary: 5 Stars
I have looked for the DVD or VHS of this movie for years - all I had was a tape I had made from a TV broadcast - with lots of commercials. I am pleased with the quality of both the VHS tape and the DVD of the older version.Movie Review: Little Lord Fauntleroy

I loved the charisima of the story and the young Lord Fauntleroy's charming character and compassion.Movie Review: Remarkably Good
Summary: 4 Stars
This film version of Frances Hodgson Burnett's classic remains gratifyingly true to the book. The acting is uniformly excellent. Sets, music, direction are all top notch. I actually have only two complaints - one small, one more substantial. Small complaint - Cedric's hairstyle. Larger complaint - for no reason that I can discern, they eliminated the episode where Cedric gives the crippled boy a ride into town on his pony and arranges to buy him a crutch. Since this is the first evidence the villagers have of Cedric's kind nature, it makes no sense to exclude it. (If V. Dann's review is correct, and the original was actually much longer, this would help explain the exclusion of that scene - although I can't imagine what they'd have done with an additional two hours. Except for the scene I mentioned, the story is fully told.) I rate this version at least as good as the Ricky Schroeder/Alec Guiness version (my personal favorite - when will that ever be available on DVD!?), better than the Mary Pickford version, and I need to see the Freddie Bartholomew version again to adequately compare.Movie Review: A movie, not the mini-series
Summary: 3 Stars
When a book is made into a mini-series, I'd like to buy the actual mini-series. If you're like me, and don't look carefully when you buy...you realize too late that this is an edited version of the original hit BBC mini-series, cut down to movie length. How would you feel if when another classic BBC adaptation of the same year, 1995, "Pride and Prejudice" was offered for sale, it was edited down to half its original length? It would be unacceptable, right?
Well. That's what's happened here. The "Little Lord Fauntleroy" mini-series was 300 min. This DVD is 170. Do the math.
