[1998, Movie]

Madeline: Review

Based on Ludwig Bemelmans's beloved series of books, Daisy von Scherler Mayer's adaptation falls somewhere between the genteel charm of the original and the crude, anarchic humor of contemporary children's comedy at its dopiest. Madeline (Hatty Jones) is a pint-sized Parisian orphan who boards with 11 other identically dressed little girls at a Catholic school run by the firm but loving Miss Clavel (Frances McDormand). The intuitive Miss Clavel's sixth sense for impending disaster serves her well, particularly when it comes to the fearless Madeline. Read the complete review for Madeline
