Continuity: When Grey comes home from work and Bill is still gone she corrects Sue about her language.

Then when she gets taken by social services she is in her cruddy old shoes again.

This movie made me very happy. It's impossible not to love the smart and sweet orphan girl who changes the heart of a selfish lawyer only interested in pursuing success in her career. This is a very optimistic movie and I sincerely believe that we need more films like Curly Sue. It touched my heart.
