[[redirect:Literature/BalletShoes]]''Ballet Shoes'' is a 2007 British film directed by Sandra Goldbacher. It is based on the [[Literature/BalletShoes 1936 novel]] by Creator/NoelStreatfeild. It stars Creator/EmmaWatson as Pauline Fossil, Creator/YasminPaige as Petrova Fossil, and Creator/LucyBoynton as Posy Fossil.

!!The film provides examples of:
* ChekhovsGunman: Theo talks dreamily about an admirer she had in her chorus days whom she met every night at the stage door. The same man ends up at the house towards the end, happily reuniting with Theo.
* DudeWheresMyRespect:
** Posy gets annoyed when the family is making a fuss about everything Pauline will need for her audition - and none of them has said anything to her about the news that she is the first student to be trained privately by Madame.
** Winifred reacts this way when Pauline gets the part of Alice, because she "looks right." She screams that it has nothing to do with talent and storms off. In the book, she is in quiet tears because her family needed the money she would earn, since the father is sick and can't work.
* GenkiGirl: Theo Dane is a bubbly and fun-loving woman whose EstablishingCharacterMoment is dancing in her room. (Movie version only.)
* HappilyAdopted: In the book, the sisters feel that it's "grand" that Posy has a mother. Here, the girls all love their adopted family dearly, and only Posy expresses some kind of angst over not knowing her real mother - because her mother gave her up as opposed to dying like the other two.
* IWasQuiteALooker: Theo states that she used to look pretty when she was younger, although she [[HollywoodOld doesn't look much older than thirty]].
