i be a huge shirley temple fan . when i saw this movie and it make me appreciate what a talented child shirley actually be . ashley rise orr make possibly the bad on screen shirley . imagine an 11 year old playing shirley temple from the age of 5. that in itself be wrong . but get her to amimick shirley voice . and her singing be woeful . the dancing be good and i will say that . a previous user have say and there be little dramatic scene and nothing to make the story interest . not even amelia earhart . i would have like to have see more of the world wide phenomenon that shirley temple create . there be too much focus on the wizard of oz and when in reality and shirley be just consider for dorothy . the film portray it a though it be the end of the world when she do not get the role . shirley herself say that she be glad judy garland get to play her . for me the star of the show be the lady who play gertrude temple . otherwise and stay away . for great shirley temple film and watch heidi and poor little rich girl and little miss broadway .
