Based on the
Eloise books by Kay Thompson, the animated
Eloise movies feature a good-hearted young girl who's full of energy and a sense of adventure. In
Eloise in Hollywood, Eloise and Nanny are traveling to Hollywood to watch a real movie being filmed and Eloise is simply bursting with excitement, especially once she finds out she's being auditioned for a minor role. Eloise meets child actress Debbie on the train only to find out later that she's starring in the movie she and Nanny are going to see being filmed. Unfortunately, Debbie's stardom goes to her head and her tantrums and downright rudeness get her fired from the set. After being selected as Debbie's replacement, Eloise quickly discovers that making movies is a lot more work (and a lot less glamour) than she ever dreamed. Can Eloise's good nature and Debbie's sincere repentance somehow set things right for everyone involved? (Ages 3 to 10)
