    • Quotes

      Felicity Merriman: [runs up to Elizabeth] Elizabeth, how are you? I've missed you so.

      Elizabeth Cole: I'm sorry about your Grandfather, Felicity. Please accept my condolences.

      [walks away]

      Felicity Merriman: Elizabeth, what's happened? You're so grown up.

      Elizabeth Cole: I do not have time for idle chatter.

      Felicity Merriman: Have I done something wrong?

      Elizabeth Cole: You haven't done anything. My father's been arrested.

      Felicity Merriman: Arrested? Whatever for?

      Elizabeth Cole: For being a Loyalist!

      Felicity Merriman: I'll talk to my father, he can get him out, he knows important people.

      Elizabeth Cole: Your father knows important Patriots. The very same ones who put him in jail. What makes you so sure they'll do it? What makes you so sure he will?

      Felicity Merriman: My father's different from them, Elizabeth. You know he is. You can trust him. He won't stand for injustice.

    Felicity is painful.
    I watched this movie as a child more than ten years ago. The terrible fake-crying in the "you're free, Penny!" scene has stuck with me since then, so I decided to watch it again for nostalgia. Mistake. It was extremely painful to endure. Not a single character in this movie has any depth or development. The dialog is predictable and boring. Everyone speaks in aphorisms. Felicity is a brat-- her actions are not justified, yet everyone rewards her, time after time?? With the horse, the dress... Bleh. The horse girl themes are unbearable, as are the patriot vs. loyalist themes. And why is Ben 15 when the actor is 20? Overall, do not watch this movie, even for nostalgia. Even Molly is better than this. You're freeeeeeeee! -sobs-
