In the News (Sat 28 Nov 09)

  
  Hatty Jones @ Filmbug UK
Nine-year-old Hatty Jones, a cherub-faced redhead with wise brown eyes, was found in London for the title role.
Jones was very familiar with the literary heroine since her parents read the books to her, and heard of the auditions through her teacher at an after-school drama club she attends.
Hatty Jones was born and raised in London, where she lives with her parents and her two younger brothers.

 MADELINE
HATTY JONES plays a near fearless little girl (whose motto is "I can do anything") with a love for adventure that occasionally gets her into trouble.
Newcomer Hatty Jones is so cute and wonderfully natural in the role that it almost seems as if it were written specifically with her in mind.
A natural actress, Jones gives a delightful performance that should not only win her many accolades, but also serve as a tremendous calling card should this talented young performer wish to pursue a career in acting.

 Hatty Jones
Yet Hatty Jones landed the lead at only nine years old, competing with actresses all over the world.
Hatty Jones is small indeed, shorter than all the girls who play her classmates, as well as Pepito, played by Kristian de la Osa.
Madeline, the film, is set in the 1950's and was directed by Daisy Mayer, who believes a courageous schoolgirl can be a good role model for girls today, who too often lose confidence in themselves before they're 12.

Hatty Jones is all spunky self-sufficiency and sweet innocence in the title role, and Frances McDormand is quite humorous as the stern school-mistress, Miss Clavel.
Madeline (Hatty Jones) resides in a French orphanage, wears a little blue suit and cap and creates havoc wherever she goes.
Hatty has the perfect button nose and red hair to pull off the look but she also manages to capture the impish thoughts of the little character as well.

 Muswell Hill People: Hatty, star of the film Madeline
With her ginger hair and "girl power" attitude, 10-year-old Londoner Hatty Jones could be an ideal Spice Girl replacement for Geri Halliwell.
Although a little on the small and young side, Hatty has shown she is feisty enough for the group through the American hit film Madeline, in which she plays the title role.
When Hatty heard the film-makers were interested, she turned down a smaller part in a BBC series so she could be available.

 Nigel Hawthorne : Films : Madeline - review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
The title character (Hatty Jones), one of "twelve little girls who live in a line," is a spunky orphan.
But this also means the film has an uneven, cobbled-together quality, and as the material has inevitably been "updated for the '90s," we naturally get routine wisecracks from the girls and some mild, unimaginative jeopardy from a standard-issue trio of bumbling bad guys.
Hatty Jones is nevertheless persuasive as the resourceful Madeline.

The casting is inspired, too: newcomer Hatty Jones makes a sunny, insouciant Madeline, and dimpled Frances McDormand plays wimpled Miss Clavel with spunk.
Most amusing are Madeline's run-ins with a funky wheel of cheese and the bratty son of a Spanish ambassador (Kristian De La Osa, a brooding, pre-pubescent Brando).
In all, Mayer may have found her girl in Jones, but the film's clunky structure is one fix even our courageous heroine can't undo.

Madeline (Hatty Jones) is the smallest and most outspoken of the 12 children in Miss Clavel's care.
And, while there is a little slapstick humor associated with a couple of inept circus clowns-turned-criminals, the picture doesn't rely on the kind of relentless physical pounding that characters in films like Home Alone and Flubber are subjected to.
Newcomer Hatty Jones, a nine year-old British redhead, is delightful as the title character.

Try as they might, no filmmaker is ever going to get a book-to-movie adaptation 100 percent "right." And the problems in translating novels to the big screen are only compounded when the original work is considered a classic.
Still, there is a somewhat troubling lack of energy, as director Daisy von Scherler Mayer ("Woo") plays scenes out in such a low-key manner that the movie drags in places, especially the first half.
Fortunately, young Hatty Jones has enough charm to make up for that shortcoming.

Madeline (Hatty Jones), as legions of little girls, their mothers and their mother's mothers already know, is a pint-sized Parisian orphan.
She and 11 other identically dressed little girls board at a Catholic school run by the firm but loving Miss Clavel (Frances McDormand), whose sixth sense for impending disaster serves her well, particularly when it comes to the fearless Madeline.
But pumpkin-faced Jones is awfully cute, McDormand and Hawthorne manage to maintain their dignity and the bold primary-color scheme captures some of the spirit of the book's illustrations.

There are very few bones to pick with "Madeline" the charming new kiddie movie based on the timeless Ludwig Bemelmans rhyme-happy children's books about the pint-sized French heroine.
It doesn't much matter if the movie's star, 9-year-old Hatty Jones, doesn't have red hair, even if the film's publicists insist she does.
And Jones is a fantastic Madeline: brave, funny, ingenious, mischievous and a lousy swimmer.
