Product Description

This gentle "true" fairy tale succeeds on nearly every level, becoming an intelligent handling of a tabloid story. In 1817 a young foreign drifter (Phoebe Cates, never better) sets a small portion of England buzzing that she is a royal princess from an uncharted land. This feels like a magical movie with slightly overcooked characters, such as Kevin Kline's Greek butler. The supporting cast is older than in most movies of this type--no cute actors, we have performers with chiseled features and gruff voices. Director Michael Austin's decision to approach this as a true story keeps things firmly grounded so the eccentrics are not overplayed. Beautifully filmed by the great Freddie Francis (Glory) and featuring a surprisingly rich cast (Stephen Rea, Wendy Hughes, Jim Broadbent, and John Lithgow), this is simply the best family movie since The Secret Garden. --Doug Thomas

 Princess Caraboo September 7, 2008
This is one of my alltime favorite movies. I was greatly pleased with the speedy arrival, and yet the price tag was a tolerable value.
Love This Princess - Perfect for Any Age September 25, 2007
I first saw Princess Caraboo on a summer day when I wasn't feeling well. I was about 14 or so and it has stuck with me. A beautiful fairytale of strength and cunning this is a great movie for any age - even a family view! One of my top ten of all time, this is a great movie to just get lost in!
 Surprisingly good July 8, 2007
If you like movies that keep you guessing, this one is great.
The actors are all first rate, and the costumes are superb.
This one is a keeper.

I loved this movie because it has that adult fantasy innocence that's pretty rare these days. It's a fun movie to watch without that "too young" topic and it's safe for the kids if they want to watch it with you.
