Title: Didn't follow the storyline in the book
Review: I caught the last half of this movie on TV and was disappointed that the movie didn't follow along with the book. Molly gets sick in the book and is unable to dance in the Miss Victory recital but in the movie she isn't sick. In the book, she is at home sick while her family is at the recital and her daddy comes home from overseas. In the movie, he appears backstage after her performance. Molly and her sister hide a Christmas package their father sent until Christmas day in the book but in the movie, their father passes out the gifts in the family's living room.The acting was nice, the costumes were excellant and the backdrop was well executed. If you can get over the fact the show strayed from the book you'll be able to enjoy the show. Personally, I liked the book's portayal of events better. It shows what would happen in real life, not in an ideal life.
Is the review positive or negative?
