    I WOULD LOVE TO BUY THIS MOVIE! I HOPE IT'S AVAILABLE!

    This was an excellent movie! It brought so much life to the meaning of life and I would pay just about any price for a copy! Hopefully there is a copy out there somewhere. The storyline was great and the performances were excellent. I give credit where it is due and you are all over due for credit for this particular film. I am only 18 years, when I first saw this movie I was about 8 or 9 and I thought it was great!

    The best movie ever.

    I wish the movie, Polly: Comin' Home, would be seen on tv. Everyone I know of love the movie but just can't find anywhere to buy the movie. I love the movie. I can't stop thinking of the movie. I have seen Pollyanna, the one with Hayley Mills. That one is good. I love them both, but I would rather have Polly: Comin' Home.

    Thank you

    Greatest movie ever written to inspire the African-American Population

    In my opinion Polly & Polly: Comin' home were the most entertaining Family/musicals ever written to inspire the black population. I was only nine years old when Polly first aired on television. I remember my mother, big sister, and myself being very excited to view the newly written African-American version of the classic Polly-Anna. I remember feeling such joy after viewing this film it touched on so much of my origin. The southern scenery was perfect in reflecting my heritage most Black Americans have a significant part of their heritage that links back to various states down south. It also touch on the our spiritual up bringing in how most black Americans were raised to love that lord and reverence God in everything we do. The entire film touch me very deeply so much so that I have been searching for this film for years but I have been unsuccessful in completing my search. I really would love to share my joy about this movie with my two year old daughter Jadyn Trinity and my family. I feel that this movie was truly inspired by God and I pray that God use it as a tool to unify families of all races all over that world.
