Little Secrets

Little Secrets, an earnest and wholesome family film about a 14-year-old girl (Evan Rachel Wood) who listens to the confessions of her young neighbors, was quietly released during a summer when most 14-year-old girls were counting down the days until the arrival of Vin Diesel in XXX. To call it out-of-touch would be an understatement. And, perhaps, a compliment. There’s something refreshing about a gentle children’s drama that means well, almost makes good on that promise and isn’t preordained as a box-office champion by a deluge of magazine covers and MTV hype.
