| Miami HeraldMarta BarberIf nothing else, watching the photogenic Clara Lago as Carol, the engaging Juan Jose Ballesta as Tomiche, the veteran Alvaro de Luna as Amalio and the talented Rosa Sarda as Maruja make up for some of the mistakes. |
| User ReviewRosalyn H"Excellent," is an understatement. |
| User ReviewKyle KWhat a gorgeous movie about a young girl growing up in amist the Spanish civil war. It's really beautifully done and the characters are just so mesmerizing and you can fall in love with Carol right away. I think we can all learn a thing or two about courage and love from Carol. |

| User ReviewSarn LBeautiful Movie.One of the best I have ever seen.Just so beautiful |
| User ReviewJessica Camazing movie. good insight into the effects of war on a child. plus tomiche is adorable |
| User ReviewJoe MA really good coming-of-age flick about a fiesty, tomboyish girl from NYC who ends up in Spain during the Spanish Civil War. She doesn't take any crap, and she loves her family, and you root for her all the way. It has a bit of a complicated plot, but I loved how she kicked a boy in the balls and he fell in love with her. Saw it On Demand on cable. Good choice (and free!). I was worried about the name, sounded cheesy, but it wasn't. |
| User ReviewAlex SA great movie. Even a twelve-year-old tomboy can change the people around her. Carol moves to rural Spain during the Spanish Civil war. You can't help loving the kids in this movie. |
| User ReviewWill FI knew nothing about the Spanish Civil War before seeing this, and it sparked my interest. I also enjoyed (being a father myself) the love shown between Carol and her father. I was also impressed that a foreign film caught the interest of my children like this one did. |
| User ReviewPatrick WDon't let the tv movie feel fool you. This is good stuff |
