An Absolute DelightVerified purchase
I love this wonderful 2003 film; it's fun, heart warming and just a joy. The entire cast nailed it, no one could have played Eloise except the actress Sofia Vassilieva, who played her and Julie Andrews deserved awards too for her portrayal of Nanny, she's hilarious; they say comedy is more difficult than drama and Julie can sure do comedy. The film was really filmed outside and inside the real Plaza Hotel here in Manhattan, I've been in many times and there is actually a very large portrait, drawing, of Eloise (from the books), at the end of a hallway on the main floor.

Very raving reviews from not just me but espeicially my oldest of three grand daughters!Verified purchase
Oh has my grand daughter fell in love!!! When I visited, she, her sisters and Mom & Dad Enjoyed it with me - Thank you!!! This book allowed me to share some time with her (Lila), to point out just how special she is!! Her younger sister by 13 months has taken the lead with just how much she is a "princess" and how "pretty" she is!! Lila, says she can't be what her sister is, smart, pretty, popular, sporty etc. So after seeing this moving and the time I had with her before I left back to CA, she not only fell in love with Eloise, but is beginning to see her "cup 1/2 full" instead of "cup 1/2 empty." (Much like her daddy (my son) use to struggle with with his younger brother when I was a single parent in their elementary-high school years. As I pointed out to her, her daddy made a big turn, when at 28, he went to college (with the help of her mother and her work) and now at 40, teaches art, going on with a correspondence program for a masters!!

More fun from the diabolical Eloise ("Once, I threw up on Coco Chanel."). When she's not working out a Trojan horse method of gaining entry into a storeroom filled with Christmas presents, she's busy working overtime spreading joy (and chaos) through the Plaza Hotel. The plot here is quite similar to that of the former film, an overbearing parent riding roughshod over their daughter's life. This time the ogre is the owner of the Plaza, Mr. Peabody (Victor A. Young), who kept his daughter (Sara Topham) from getting romantically entangled with a lowly waiter (Gavin Creel). Firing him would have been much cheaper than sending his daughter away to college, but there you have it, the complexities of a simple minded story. Naturally, he's finally made to see the error of his ways and has an instant (and totally unbelievable) change of heart. Dopey plot aside, the best moments involve Nanny (Emmy nominated Julie Andrews) and the incorrigible Eloise (Sofia Vassilieva). The only sour note is the shrill and overbearing performance by Christine Baranski (Prunella Stickler) who scowls and shrieks her way through the entire film. Otherwise, it's quite enchanting.
