:: Trivia for The Secret Garden (1993) :: via IMDB.com
The costume design is so detailed that the initials "M.L." (Mary Lennox) can be seen embroidered on Mary's stockings for the split second they appear on-screen, while Mary's Ayah is dressing her at the beginning of the film.
The corridor leading to Colin's room and the interior of the room are decorated with tapestries depicting Edward VI, a sickly boy king who died young at the age of 16.
Heydon Prowse, the actor who portrayed the sickly Colin Craven, won his role in the film when auditions for the part were held at his school.
:: Quotes ::
Dickon: The animals tell me all their secrets.
Mary: He wouldn't tell you my secret, would he?
Dickon: About what, Miss Mary?
Mary: A garden. I've stolen a garden.
Mary: It's a secret garden.
Dickon: Secrets are safe with me.
Mary: I hate the way you talk about dying.
Colin: Everyone thinks I'll die.
Mary: If everyone thought that about me, I wouldn't do it.
Mary: Can I have a bit of earth?
Lord Craven: A bit of earth?
Mary: To plant seeds in. To make things grow.
Colin: I'm going to die.
Mary: From what?
Colin: Everything.
Mary: The spell was broken. My uncle learned to laugh, and I learned to cry. The secret garden is always open now. Open, and awake, and alive. If you look the right way, you can see that the whole world is a garden.
