  • The movies are generally rated from G to PG and all have been live action. Initially, movies (with the noted exception of Kit Kittredge: An American Girl) were broadcast on TV; with the exception of Chrissa Stands Strong, these were almost always on standard cable or wide broadcast channels. The first movies focused on a Historical Character each, and adapted major plots of the book series into about an hour and half long movie. While the general gist of the plots were kept, many things were changed or left out, including other characters and stories. Significantly, the first three movies were all modified in plot to have the end of the movies occur at or near Christmas, so as to push a holiday focus both in the movie and in items released. With Kit Kittredge: An American Girl, the majority of the plot was original to the movie with only a few references to the book series for characterization and details. It has been the first and so far only movie to be released in theaters instead of directly to DVD, Blu-ray, or streaming. Each film for a Historical Character was originally marked by the release of a Best Friend and a revamp of clothing, furniture, and accessories for the character that tie the movie into their collection. This was most prominent with Felicity Merriman, whose collection had been severely reduced before her movie. Several items and outfits from the movie tend to be released, along with at least one significantly large item. With the discontinuation of Best Friends, movies tend to not add significant amounts of items to a collection, if anything at all. For Girls of the Year, their movies generally reflect details, outfits, and items from the collections--most likely because they are developed simultaneously--and so no additional items are generally released beyond the scope of the original collection. In 2016, Mattel signed a multi-year pact with Amazon to produce four live action specials based on the BeForever and the Girls of the Year lines. This has also included sales through Amazon of official American Girl products.
