Heidi

The story of Heidi is a classic story not to be missed. It's a deep, loving story between Heidi & her grandfather, and she grows to understand the depth of his love. If purchased, I highly recommend buying the sequel as well: Courage Mountain. The stories are deep, rich, and meaningful, and bring Heidi up to young adulthood. They teach ethics, morals, and values, and they teach about loyalty between those who love each other.

I just love this movie, it really makes me think about how important it is to have a Grand Father and how a child can bring a lonely old man back to caring and loving his granddaughter!! I Love this movie!!

Wonderful movie for the whole family! Never get tired of watching it.

We have seen this movie before, which is why I purchased it. It is by far THE BEST edition of the Heidi story. A little gruff and realistic in the beginning as she meets scary grandfather, it gets better as his calloused heart slowly begins to soften. The characters are true, either showing a genuine love for others, or only displaying self-interest (as in the case of Aunt Dete, who really doesn't break out of character). It wasn't filmed in a fairy-tale like setting, but one that appears more tru-to-life. Both of my children liked this movie (even my autistic son). Heidi's perseverance of searching for love and acceptance in this edition makes her the true hero. You say "hooray for Heidi" at the end.

Now I just need an NFL playoff game.

I enjoyed the movie. It was 3 1/2 hours long. My granddaughter had trouble sitting still through it. She was 6 at the time.

This movie is so good. It's heart warming and sweet.

I recently bought a movie on amazon.com and the preview of "Heidi" was at the beginning of that DVD. I have, through the years, seen a number of renditions of this timeless story but had never seen this one. I immediately ordered it and was delighted with it. I enjoyed this young lady in Danielle Steel's "Fine Things" and found her to be a perfect Heidi. So glad to add it to my collection and share it with my grandchildren. I am sometimes irritated by half a dozen previews of other movies before getting down to the movie I bought, this is one time that it paid off.
