Awesome / A Little Princess (1995)

• The scene in which Sara witnesses Miss Minchin abusing a little boy who works as her chimney sweep. In order to get back at Minchin, Sara and Becky climb up to the school roof and dump copious amounts of soot through the parlor fireplace flue while Minchin practices the harp. The result is a veritable mushroom cloud of soot and a wailing Minchin.
• In the ending, after Mr. Randolph becomes headmaster of the school, Miss Minchin has been demoted to being a subordinate to that same chimney sweep who is also heard and seen bossing her around. What goes round comes round.
• Midway through the film, Sara's friends engineer a plan to get back the locket Miss Minchin took from her. This involves a Cacophony Cover Up (Lottie's tantrum), sneaking into the headmistress' office, and going through her desk and shelves to find the locket. What makes the whole scene more awesome is that the girls are mere seconds from being caught, until Becky, who is outside the office, screams and tells Minchin she saw a mouse.
• After Minchin catches all the girls in the attic with Sara, the latter immediately lies and says she asked them all to come - bravely taking the blame to save her friends being treated as cruelly as her.
• Sara's speech to Minchin: "I am a princess. All girls are. Even if they live in tiny old attics. Even if they dress in rags, even if they aren't pretty, or smart, or young. They're still princesses. All of us."
• Sara's method of getting her revenge on Lavinia - a proper Mind Screw by having her believe that she is cursed.
• Amelia's elopement.
• Sara's father remembering who he is, who Sara is, running out into the rain as the music swells, and just bellowing, "SARA!"
