    I never did understand the use of the word 'for' in the first line: O Beautiful FOR Spacious Skies, FOR Amber Waves of Grain... Surely 'vast' would have been better: O Beautiful VAST Spacious Skies, VAST Amber Waves of Grain? But I'm British, so maybe the word 'for' suits in the American dialect? Any experts out there in comment land wanna tell me?

    We sang this in opening exercises in the early grades of school. I'm sure Hayley Mills had to learn the song for the film, as she was British and this was not something she'd know.

      Hayley must have been Disney's sweetheart at the time... I'm sure there were 100's of American girls who could have played the part equally well, but they chose Hayley instead.

    What are your favorite lines or scenes from the film? Mine is when Jimmy Beans says "I'm something you can't be, I'm an orphan". Surely, since both of her parents died Pollyanna is also an orphan (albeit living in her aunt's posh home).

      In period movies like "The Music Man", set in 1912 or so, I don't think diversity works. The 2003 remake starring Mathew Broderick was more diverse, and it just looked contrived and fake. I wouldn't make a movie about 19th century London diverse either. Don't ever redo "Oliver" that way please!
