My nieces are big fans of American Girl so I was happy to give them the newest American Girl DVD, Samantha. You should have seen their faces, they were thrilled. I really love the American Girl series because it offers young girls wholesome stories of strong and smart girls after which they can model their life.
Samantha: An American Girl Holiday Deluxe Edition, the live-action film based on the popular line of American Girl books and 18-inch dolls that depict important times in America’s past. Based on the books about Samantha Parkington, the deluxe edition of Samantha: An American Girl Holiday stars AnnaSophia Robb (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Bridge to Terabithia) in the title role as a nine-year-old orphan being raised by her wealthy and proper grandmother, Grandmary (portrayed by Golden Globe-winning actress Mia Farrow, Rosemary’s Baby) in 1904 New York. While she is well loved and cared for, Samantha is a little lonely living in Grandmary’s big house.
Special Features on the DVD include:
An all-new special feature: Votes For Women: An American Girl: Samantha. Samantha: An American Girl Holiday joins descendants of the real American Suffragists in a discussion about getting votes for women and the journey for equal rights.
Mount Bedford News: A Victorian Wedding. A featurette including footage from the wedding scene in the movie.
