Now rewatching AnnaSophia Robb in the film Bridge to Terabithia.

I really like this film. I keep changing what I would mention as my favourite film (I have a list) but a long time ago the subject of favourite film came up at work and a colleague of mine and me at the same time said Bridge to Terabithia. Which is such an odd thing to happen, as it's not even that that many people have even heard of this film...

I'd say this film isn't that much underrated, as just not rated because it is quite unknown.

Anyway, AnnaSophia Robb is brilliant.

I like how the correct spelling of her name includes this specific capitalisation: AnnaSophia, no hyphen, no space.

I originally watched this for Zooey Deschanel, but the story isn't really about her character. Anyway, this is how you find new actresses.

New girl introduced in class, I wonder whether she's also going to scream.

I've known a girl like that once, who could make all kinds of things happen by just telling about them. Somehow she could see something, comment about it but probably twisted it somewhat towards the fantastical, and tell it so convincingly that that's what everybody saw as well. Or maybe these things really happened, I still don't know.

We may have witnessed a bodged bank robbery where the robber was running away and chased by the police, just missing his rendez-vous with the getaway driver. Or maybe there was a jogger, who knows.

Bridge To Terabithia is a really nice mix of fantasy situations and real world problems, where neither is just the backdrop for the other.

You'd expect Zooey to be credited in the music section of the film, and she is. She plays the music teacher after all. But AnnaSophia is too! The music video on the extras is even her song.

Bridge To Terabithia (2007) major spoiler
It is a really sad film in the end due to the sudden twist. But this is actually autobiographical for the writer of the book it is based on, and for her son who is the screenwriter here. It was him who when 8 years old suddenly lost his best friend, which then gave the mother the impossible task of helping him make sense of it. So she wrote a book about it. And he much later made a film of it.
