This is one of those cute films that are safe for kids. It has the Disney signature all over it.
Casey Brown (Jodie Foster) is recruited and in cahoots with a con man and his wife. The wife used to work for the family of a castle and can teach Casey how to fool her way in as a long lost relative. Once inside she is to find the alleged treasure of a pirate captain. In the process of searching she is forced to cooperate with the family which is trying to scrape up enough money to save the castle. She appears to be softening up.
David Niven gets to play several characters (Colonel Dennis/Mr. Gipping/Mr. Priory/John)
Where will her loyalties lie?
Is there really treasure or is it just a story?
And why is the butler never seen with the gardener?

Jodie Foster plays the streetwise kid who gets sent to Candleshoe by her wicked uncle and mad aunt to try and get the
legendary lost treasure of Candleshoe. At Candleshoe she must convince the old lady there played by Helen Hayes that she is her long lost granddaughter. David Niven plays the butler and does it very well! There's sword fights, fun and laughter.
This film could possibly be the best Disney film ever!
You MUST see this film!
