Pollyanna Whittier goes to live with her wealthy but bitter aunt after the tragic death of her father. Pollyanna shares a game her father taught her -- the 'Glad Game' -- in which everyone can find a silver lining in even the darkest cloud, and her sunny nature, good humor and determination to look on the bright side of life prove to have an astonishing effect on those around her. With the help of her orphaned friend, Jimmy Bean, she casts her spell on the grumpiest townsfolk of Beldingsville -- including the cynical shut-in Mrs. Snow, the morose millionaire Mr. Pendleton and the enigmatic Dr. Chilton. And Pollyanna masterminds the romance between her Aunt's maid, Nancy, and the handyman, Tim. It is only Aunt Polly, who cannot bring herself to embrace Pollyanna's innocence and joy. But all is not straightforward in Pollyanna's war against pessimism, since she must overcome a personal tragedy that threatens to banish "glad" from her vocabulary forever.

1956-aisiais JAV pasirodė pirmoji įgarsinta L.Tolstojaus romano „Karas ir taika“ ekranizacija. Ankstesnės trys buvo sukurtos nebyliojo kino epochoje. Filmo žvaigžde tapo Odri Hebern, ekrane įkūnijusi Natašą Rostovą. Kai pasirodė šis filmas, aktorei buvo 27-eri. Miniatiūrinė Odri sugebėjo perteikti L.Tolstojaus herojės vidinio pasaulio sudėtingumą. Ir dabar, dar sykį pažiūrėjus filmą su O.Hebern ir palyginus jį su kitomis „Karo ir taikos“ ekranizacijomis, galima dar kartą įsitikinti, kad amerikietė aktorė perprato rusės Natašos Rostovos charakterį, perėmė įpročius, pažvelgė į savo personažo sielos gelmes ir išreiškė jos meilę. Nors 1956 metų „Karo ir taikos“ ekranizacija vis sensta, savo žavesio nepraranda. Priešingai, tai retro filmas, kurį galima su malonumu žiūrėti dar ir dar kartą ir vėl pasiduoti pagrindinės herojės, vaidinamos O.Hebern, žavesiui.
