Directed by Agnieszka Holland and with a certain Francis Ford Coppola on hand as executive producer, The Secret Garden is a gem of the 90s that will forever remain in my heart as one of the films that shaped my burgeoning love of cinema.
When Mary Lennox's parents are tragically killed in an Indian earthquake, the young orphan is sent to Yorkshire to live at her uncle's estate.Left mostly to her own devices, Mary explores the house and grounds, watched with scrutiny by housekeeper Mrs Medlock . Grossing around $40 million worldwide, The Secret Garden was considered a commercial success.
