A film adaptation of Johanna Spryi's inspiring novel about a young girl's coming of age, THE NEW ADVENTURES OF HEIDI tracks Heidi when she leaves the alpine slopes of her native Switzerland for the hustle and bustle of New York City. Based on Frances Hodgson Burnett's popular children's book and stage play THE LITTLE PRINCESS features one of Shirley Temple's most memorable performances and her first Technicolor appearance. Temple stars as Sara Crewe, a little rich girl who is enrolled in a prestigious boarding school while her father goes off to fight in the Boer War in Africa. When Sara receives news of her father's death, the school's ruthless headmistress turns the newly penniless girl into a galley slave and forces her to live in a cold, dark garret. It is the irresistibly charming Temple who ultimately ensures THE LITTLE PRINCESS a lasting place in the hearts of her fans. [More]
