My Girl 2
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
My Girl 2 is a 1994 movie starring Anna Chlumsky, Dan Aykroyd, Christine Ebersole, Jamie Lee Curtis, Roland Thomson, and Austin O'Brien. This was a sequel to 1991's My Girl. The plot involves the main character, Vada Sultenfuss, going to Los Angeles for the spring break to learn more about her deceased biological mother. First a sparky 11 year old full of 'medical problems' (including a chicken bone in her throat), now a lively yet more serious 13 year old teenager, 'ready for her own apartment'. Vada goes through the natural steps, including what it's like to be with a boy that isn't deceased. ( See My Girl For Thomas J.)
