| 1 | * Colin first walking tends to evoke this, whatever version you're watching. |
| 2 | * In the 1993 film, Archibald Craven ''finally'' calls out Mrs. Medlock on her zealously overprotective behavior. |
| 3 | -->"She's just a ''child''. I left you in charge." |
| 4 | ** Much earlier there's also Colin standing up for Martha. The servant girl is blamed for Mary finding Colin and Medlock starts to slap her and tell her she'll be sent away. Colin threatens to send ''her'' away and shuts down the beating at once. Medlock is completely shocked that he's giving her an order. |
| 5 | * Mary calling Colin out on his tantrums -- as the author points out, your typical little girl of the period would've been frightened and run away, but Mary isn't at all typical, so she just gets mad. She's every bit as willful and spoiled as Colin, and it never even occurs to her to indulge his tantrum. Colin's been so used to everyone giving in when he screams 'because he's sick' that when Mary not only refuses to do so, but informs him just as loudly that he should stop being silly as there's nothing wrong with him, he's so impressed (and startled) he believes her on the spot. |
| 6 | * "Lily's Eyes" in the theatre version doubles as SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic. |
| 7 | * First seeing the restored garden in the 1949 version. The film has been in black and white until now, often shot like a FilmNoir rather than a children's movie, and the sudden appearance of bright color and sunshine is amazing. |
