Please recommend me other movies with young girl (<15yo) as main character (and NOT kids movies) other than these:
Heavenly Creatures (these are older)
Lawn Dogs
Pan's Labyrinth
Thirteen (not exactly, only 1 storyline)
Tideland

TIA,

Peter Markoff

My recommondations would be, Tiger bay 1959 (With Hayley Mills, wonderful acting in this one. It's too about a friendship between a very special girl and a male adult. )

And Paper moon 1973 (With Tatum O'neal, she's playing a very special little girl too. )

Keane (2004)

And then Mischa Barton went on to the OC.

Anyway,
Little Children
The Woodsman
Hard Candy

If the same type of story (child molestation or mistaken-id pedo/ephebe-philia is the thing here) (well, LC doesn't make use of the young kids in that one)

I'm surprised no one has suggested "The Man in the Moon" (1991) with Reese Witherspoon.

The Man in the Moon, a superb quiet film with a great cast.
