The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane

Sad Max

Artful Dodger
Hadn't seen this since...junior high school, I think, and except for the dreadful 70s score, had forgotten how well done it is. Jodie Foster and Martin Sheen are both wonderfully creepy, on totally different wavelengths, and Foster's poise is pretty impressive. It must have made an impression the first time; there were whole sequences that I remembered shot-for-shot.

Suprised it hasn't been remade. Pleasantly surprised, I guess, since it was basically done right, the first time.
 
Hmm, never heard of it. But Jodie Foster and Martin Sheen are both great actors... I might have to check that one out...
