Oh, wow. I saw "The Indian in the Cupboard" what feels like a thousand years ago. Probably saw "Searching for Bobby Fischer" around the same time.

"A Little Princess" (1995), definitely.

It's a type of similar drama in the way it observes people. Not in the most direct way, but there's only maybe one or two films that are JUST like "The Secret Garden". I'm just looking for good, quiet dramas.
