ThiefHott Too much of everything
Jeanskynebu the audience applauded
GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
intobox From a child's perspective, this was the scariest and most disturbing movie I've ever seen. I was eight years old when it was first shown on television, and I couldn't go to bed by myself for over two weeks. The plot is fairly simple. A little boy moves into an old mansion haunted by the ghost of a little girl. They befriend one another while they attempt to solve the mystery of her death. It turns out that she was murdered by her wicked uncle who was searching for the family treasure. They find the little girl's lost china-headed doll. And then they find the lost diamonds when they drop the doll, her head breaks open and the diamonds come spilling out. Thirty years after first seeing it on television, I still have a phobia about dolls...thank you Walt Disney. Keep this movie far, far away from your children.
dougsoneandonly2003 i wish also they would put it on DVD its a movie i would love for my kids to see......... it was my favorite movie when i was my daughters age ........... every time i went to my grandparents house that would be the first movie i would pick to watch. My daughter is now 7 and i really think she would enjoy this movie so please put it on DVD so our kids can enjoy it. i know i would buy it. this movie is one of those movies that you never get to old to watch or at least i know i won't. not to mention i have a lot of nieces and nephews that would like to see it as well. All together i have 9 nieces and nephews and i have four kids and i lknow that everyone of them would like to see that movie.
mudgek I lived in Canada for one year in 1978 and then moved home to Australia. During that year I saw Child of Glass on TV. I was four years old. I was obsessed with it and didn't find it scary at all - just fascinating. In recent years I have only vaguely remembered the plot. When I found out about this website I was so keen to see if what I remembered was correct. Reading other's comments I've discovered that my memories are accurate. I remembered there was a mystery that had to be solved by a child, the ghost of a little girl, a lost treasure and a well that held the answer. Almost 30 years later, I am so keen to see it again, however, I doubt I would ever be able to find it here in Australia. Instead, I will attempt to find a copy of the book and its sequel.
AMJG5 I first saw this movie as a child and loved how Inez said the boys name "Alexander" with a french accent. I just loved it so much I vowed to name my son that if I had one...and I did...and his name is Alexander. So as you can see I am a Big fan of the movie. You have to see it..it's much more fun seeing with a child to.AMJG5
