The Free Family-Friendly Matinées’ Cinema portion continues with the hauntingly beautiful The Secret Garden, starring Maggie Smith, and based on the classic children’s story.
Living in India, a young, privileged girl named Mary Lennox is left orphaned when her parents are killed in an earthquake. She is sent back to England to live on her uncle Archibald Craven's (John Lynch's) estate. It is a fairly isolated existence, and she has to find things to keep herself occupied. She finds a sickly young cousin named Colin Craven and a secret garden.
