My Girl and My Girl 2 are both moving films to cherish for years to come

My Girl:

The first movie was from 1991, but it takes place in the early seventies. Anna Chlumsky stars in her first movie and does a darn good job playing Vada Sultenfuss, but of course she has already famous stars acting with her: Dan Aykroyd, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Macaulay Culkin.

The movie starts out with Jamie Lee Curtis (Shelly) who is a cosmetician and wants to be hired by Dan Aykroyd (Vada's father) who is the town's mortician. He ends up hiring the sexy woman while Vada spends her summer with the boy next door who happens to be her best friend, Thomas J. played by Macaulay Culkin.

Upset over the death of her mother, and believes it is her fault, Vada is obsessed with death. And because her father and Shelly start dating and he buys her an engagement ring, Vada runs away from home. But she returns home and starts to get along with Shelly. But once she becomes friends with Shelly, her best friend, Thomas J. gets stung by bees and dies in the woods. Not wanting to believe that his death is real, she talks to him while at the funeral as he lies in his coffin. She runs away again but returns to her adult writing class with a poem. Though she may not be an adult, she took this class because she has a crush on the teacher, but she also enjoys writing. This is the poem that she wrote expressing her feelings for Thomas J. who idolized her when they were friends.

Weeping willow with your tears running down

Why do you always weep and frown?

Is it because he loved you one day?

Is it because he could not stay?

On your branches he would swing

Do you long for the happiness that they would bring?

If you found shelter in your shade

If you thought his laughter would never fade

Weeping willow stop your tears

There is something to calm your fears

If you think that as your two forever part

And I know he'll always be in your heart

My Girl 2:

The second movie was from 1994 but was based in the mid seventies. Many of the characters in the second movie were also in the first movie. But there are two newcomers: Austin O'Brien who plays Nick and his mother Rose played by Christine Ebersol.

Vada is given an assignment in her class at school. The assignment is to write about someone you admire and has achieved something, but who you have never met. Vada decides to write about her mother. Because her mother is from Los Angeles, she wants to go to L.A. to find out more about her. Her nervous father is paranoid to let his 13 year-old daughter on a plane to California by herself, but she ends up going and stays with her uncle and his girlfriend and his girlfriend's son, Nick.

Vada and Nick spend their spring break together hoping to find information on Vada's mother. At first they quarrel and don't have much in common, but they start to get along. Vada makes some surprising discoveries about her mother and she learns more about herself. No longer a child, but not quite an adult, its tough being a young girl in the real world, but somehow she manages to find her way. This is the song that her mother sings in a home movie she watches and the same song she sings to her newborn baby brother.

"SMILE"

Smile though your heart is aching

Smile even though it's breaking

Although a tear

Maybe ever so near

That's the time you must keep on trying

Smile what's the use of crying

You'll find that life is still worthwhile

If you just smile

Vada ended up getting an A+ on her report and this is what she found out about her mother. "She may not have her footprints in the cement, but she definitely left her imprint on the world. And I told him (her teacher) that even though it sounds conceded, her greatest achievement was me."

Both movies are great to watch over and over again. These movies I would say are for 8-14 year-olds, but I think many people of all ages would enjoy watching them.

P.S.
Sorry if I gave away the ending for both movies, but it's still worth seeing.

Lovely

The favourite film of someone special, i like it but is more special because JB like it very much.

A must see for all ages!

I absolutely LOVE this set. It is a family movie that will make you laugh, make you cry and make you want to hold onto your youth forever! Veda is a young girl who is quite the tomboy and loves to spend time with her best friend, Thomas Jay. Her house is a funeral home, her father is a man who is dedicated to the dead and not falling in love again. In comes a young, sassy divorced make up artist who steals his heart and steals away Veda's daddy, so she feels. In this movie, a very young girl comes to terms with life, death, jealousy, and love.

In part two, Veda is a little older now and having to write an essay on someone who she never met that inspires her. She decides to learn about her mother, who died after giving birth to her. She is now going to be a big sister too! With much protest from her father, she flies to L.A to visit her Uncle and to learn about her mother. She falls for a boy for the first time, learns things about her mom that she never knew and learns alittle more about life. She comes home to a beautiful baby, and a whole new perspective on life. MUST SEE SET!!!
