Kit Kittredge: An American Mystery centers around a young living in the struggles of the Great Depression. 10 year old Kit lives in a boarding house her parents own in Cincinnati, Ohio. She has a passion for writing, and dreams of having something of hers put in the local paper someday. With the help of her friends, Sterling and Ruthie, will her dream finally come true? |||| Recently, updated details on the Kit film were posted on Variety's website, among others. It will be produced by Goldsmith-Thomas Productions and Julia Roberts' Red Om Films, released by New Line Cinema (in which its sister studio Warner Bros. produced the first three American Girl TV movies), and written by Ann Peacock. Abigail Breslin has been chosen to play Kit Kittredge, the main character, and filming was thought to have started around late May in Toronto, as some websites have stated.
