August Picks: The Movies and TV You Can't Miss8 of 18
The Secret Garden | In Theaters Friday, Aug. 14
Plot: An orphaned girl discovers a magical garden hidden at her strict uncle's estate.
Our Take: I'll be honest, I'm trying to work some whole-grain content into my kids' programming schedule, and The Secret Garden looks to tick a lot of boxes for me: It's based on a beloved novel (with multiple adaptations), some striking "natural" visuals, and the promise of enchantment and wonder. The big question is whether a VOD is in the cards, rather than the current (and optimistic) plan for a theatrical release. — James
