Girl caases Halloween magic with some sweet family elements.

Grows about a girl, Charlie Little played by Pria rose Brookwell,
who wants to find her mother, Holly Little played by
Pathin Drysdale. However, Charlie listen to her aunt, Diana Little
played by Golda Roschenwell, who lives on a farm. The
town is crazy about pumpkins and a pumpkin contest. Some

(01:27):
of the neighbors have insane ideas about how to grow
a pumpkin.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
Grow takes place in the fictional town of Mugford, UK,
a small town obsessed with a big annual pumpkin growing contest.
The prize would change lives with anyone in the town
except the spy. The Gerkins fifty time annual winners of
the challenge.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
This film is phenomenal. It is wonderful in every aspect,
the setting, to the writing, and the acting.

Speaker 2 (01:53):
The humor in this film is so outstanding, with hilarious
moments and awesome nods to other movies, like when a
gruesomely stop pumpkin ends up in the owner's bed in
a nod to The Godfather. Set and costume designers have
created bright, fun costumes and larger than life pumpkins that
add vibrancy to the neutral background of the town farm.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
The film's lesson is about restoring relationships and being loyal
to your friends, family, and even a pumpkin.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
The main message of Grow is that nothing is impossible
and if you keep pushing for your dreams, you can
make it to the top. This film includes themes of love, friendship,
and persistence pair. It should be worn that Grow includes
some scenes of suspenseful moments.

Speaker 3 (02:32):
I give Grow five out of five stars and recommend
it for ages eight to twelve.

Speaker 2 (02:37):
I give Grow four out of five pumpkins and recommend
it for ages two to twelve plus adults.
