It can be an old movie, I can have seen this a thousand times, but I still love it. It's touchy, lovely, cute and truly beautiful.

"I am a princess. All girls are. Even if they live in tiny old attics. Even if they dress in rags, even if they aren't pretty, or smart, or young. They're still princesses. All of us. Didn't your father ever tell you that?"

Maybe it's the nostalgic part of me talking, but I'd definitely recommend it.

"A charming and inspiring story about a young girl who's lost all hope and yet still manages to find happiness. It's also a great film to just look at."
