If you loved Matilda, try A Little Princess

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. A Little Princess has roughly 4.6× fewer votes than Matilda — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Theysit in Family / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Matilda, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What A Little Princess is

New York, autumn, a trunk in the attic. A young girl's imagination clashes with a strict headmistress, a boarding school's rules. Cuarón shapes a resilient heroine.
