Yes, even Mark Twain's 1881 classic can be made into a girls’ musical. :) It’s got brilliant music (also released on a separate CD) and is definitely the best Barbie movie ever. In Swan Lake, the first trilogy was concluded with a coherent framework narrative, and now we're right in the middle of a fairy tale and that is certainly not a bad thing. I also played the game of the same name with my niece on PC and this world truly suits Barbie. Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper simply does not have any flaws.
