About this movie

Welcome to Candleshoe, a stately English manor where a swashbuckling pirate hid a fortune in Spanish doubloons centuries ago. And that's what young orphan Casey (Award-winning actress Jodie Foster) and a sly con man (Leo McKern) are determined to find. But first she must dupe Candleshoe's widowed owner into believing she's her long-lost granddaughter! Casey eventually discovers there may be an even greater treasure at Candleshoe -- the love of a happy family. Legendary stars David Niven and Helen Hayes join Foster in this humorous and heartwarming adventure!

Good movie but guys these movies are ancient and would be in the $5 movie bin at walmart. We are not even getting a hard copy for $9.99. If they go down in price i would buy many.

My 1st time watching. What a joy of a movie! From the opening credits, this is non-stop fun. Tons of amusing high jinx and stunts galore. Candleshoe plays like a live action cartoon. Jodie Foster, the young star of this show is super, super charming. She had my attention the whole time. David Niven was so good and also squirrelly-eyed viilian Leo Mckern; very silly. The sword fight; the train. I laughed and smiled a lot watching this. They don't make movies like this anymore. Damn near perfect💯
