Franny is an idealistic teenager who wants to change the world. She volunteers in a city shelter for disadvantaged girls, but her affluent background is met with much hostility. She eventually does begin to make a difference, and is surprised to find that her own life is changed as well.

This review is from: My Little Girl [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Mary Stuart Masterson is her ever-feisty self in this very early film of her career. The story of an idealistic, upper middle class girl trying to do some good in the world and finding the obstacles of the hard, cruel world ... well sometimes not so hard and sometimes not so cruel, but bad enough if you are young, female and especially, black. Inescapable intrusions into your personal life, something so outrageous if you were an ordinary white girl living an ordinary American life, that its good to be shown how bad it can be for those without respect, voice or status. A young James Earl Jones with his wonderful voice makes a believable bureaucrat caught between the two worlds of the welfare system in a white dominated America and a truly sympathetic attempt to help young, (mostly) black girls.
