fondly remembered
I saw this movie when I was a kid, and enjoyed it. I was looking for this in Hallmark stores, but they don't have it currently. I've now read the original book and seen other adaptations, but I still enjoy this one for having Derek Jacobi as Mr. Archibald Craven. Colin Firth also has a small part as a grown up Colin after WWI. It's heartwarming and fun to watch the kids discover the garden and become friends. This version changes the story so that Mary and Colin are not cousins.
