From the Wonderful World of Disney, a retelling of Walt Disney's Pollyanna. Starring Keshia Knight Pulliam, Phylicia Rashad, Dorian Harewood and more. Directed by Debbie Allen.
"If only people today had half the heart and spirit that this little girl had, we'd all be in a much better place. This is a wonderful film that I have loved for years and waited forever to get on DVD. Parents can watch it with their children and grandchildren because it's a great family film that all generations will love. The singing and dancing (thanks to Debbie Allen's awesome choreography) is inspirational and downright fun to watch and sing along to. Thank you Disney for finally putting it on DVD! Folks, be sure to get both Polly and Polly: Comin' Home!!"
One of the Greatest Black Musicals Ever

"I have been waiting literally years for disney to put this title out and I am so happy they did. I remember watching this film Polly, and Polly: Comin' Home when I was a little girl and after watching it as a adult I still love it just as much. I am proud to show this movie to my daughter and other people who just enjoy quality black films. This film has class a class you rarely see these days in black entertainment that's why I love these two movies so much. I recommend these films for all young people. Polly played by Keisha Knight Pulliam, can teach us all a lesson in determination and spirit. The singing is great, the dancing is great. The star studded cast was wonderfully picked and play great characters. This is a timeless classic I hope every child will see and learn from, but beware of price gougers I got this and the sequel from Disney Movie club and they both were half of what Amazon has them for sale. Enjoy the film!!!!!"
Great Movie....but Over priced!!

"Polly has got to be one of my all time favorite movies. I can recite the movie from beginnning to end just like "The Color Purple" and "Coming to America". BUT...I cannot believe Amazon has this movie on sale for almost $40. I just ordered it for $1.99...yes $1.99 from the DisneyMovieClub. Of course I had to become a member. But for this movie...it was worth it."
Wonderful movie but do not buy it from Amazon or sellers on

"This movie is great! I rememeber it from my childhood. At 22, I don't remember much about it, and I've been looking for it for years. Disney Movie Club has recently put this and it's sequeal Polly: Comin' Home on DVD. There you won't pay half as much as these people are asking for it."
Had to own

"I remember watching this as a little girl and I wanted it. It's still an amazing story - Pollyanna - with a twist. I enjoyed it and will continue too."
