Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some
Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
talysha01 these movies were SO great and now i would love to have them on DVD, please, please, please help me to buy them. i recording them on VHS but am unable to find it, but a DVD would be a treasure. Betty Hughes....it is nice to have a movie that expresses the black history for we do so much need our grandkids as well as our kids to see good things happen to them if they focus on the positive. Polly touched many lives and more than one race too. she brought cheer and even when times were bad and her grandmother had too much pride, it shows that money is not the answer to happiness and that it takes all kinds of people to keep our world in good success.
lavendernyc Hey guys, I don't know about u but I loved the TV movie Polly when i was younger. Disney has not released it on DVD yet because they feel that there is not a great enough demand from the movie's fans. Please go to the website listed below to request for it's release to DVD.http//disneyvideos.Disney.go.com/moviefinder/products/Polly.html There is a section to the left of the screen that says "not currently for sale". You have to click and leave your email address and name in order to request for Polly's release to DVD. Please share this information with anyone you know who is a fan of the TV movie Polly. There was a part 2 of the movie , maybe that can be released too. So all fans please, please help to request that Polly be released to DVD. Thanks....
ovuhdramatic1-1 As a child, I watched this movie every time they played it on The Magical World of Disney. We finally taped it and watched it over and over and over, until the VHS finally broke. To me, there is no comparison between "Pollyanna" and "Polly". Both films are huge parts of my childhood and I feel privileged to have a "black" version as well as a "white" version of the story. "Polly" is my favorite because I wanted to be Keisha Knight Pulliam and I love Phylicia Rashaad. The songs are cheesy and fun and I still know all the words and dances to them. Don't get me wrong, Hayley Mills was a charmer as well! If you can get your hands on a copy, do it. If you have kids and have introduced them to "Pollyanna" with Hayley Mills, show them the other version. Both are truly fun for the whole family.
veja_1 i kind of have a thing for older, hard to find movies and musicals. this was one of them. i remember seeing this movie on tv back in the 80's when it came out, and it has been in the back of my mind ever since. the songs were wonderful, and the choreography was great. a heartwarming film, that even my grandmother liked (and that's actually saying something, 'cause she doesn't like anything!) it was nice to see debbie allen at it again. i haven't been able to find a copy on dvd anywhere. in the past 2 years, i have searched a handful of sites on the net, and had absolutely no luck. does anyone know where to find a copy? i really wanted to be able to show my mother and little sister. i know they would like it as much as i did. please help!
