	Pollyanna (1960)
		Pollyanna easily could - and probably should - have been absolutely insufferable, but Mills makes her likable and engaging.
		Pollyanna appears in an aspect ratio of approximately 1.75:1 on this single-sided, double-layered DVD; the image has been enhanced for 16X9 televisions.
		Pollyanna probably did as well as it could with this kind of material, but I must admit it did little for me. The movie had some good moments, but it ran far too long and lacked enough story or depth to make me like it very much.

		Pollyanna returned with their third full-length album in 1999.

	Why PollyAnna and PollyEdit work (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Once PollyAnna was written the need for an editor with which to prepare the IITEMS file was made glaringly obvious.
		PollyAnna is derived from PollyClave, a polyclave program that was written to emulate INTKEY (a workstation-based program for DOS and Windows machines) while running interactively on a web server.
		In the operation of PollyAnna, this corresponds to the actual text and HTML tags associated with each graphic, together with information about the positioning of the graphic, the kind of quiz question, and numbers of options, etc. All of this information can be entered directly into the binary file IITEMS using the program PollyEdit.
