Life-Size - Lindsay Lohan Fans Blog

Life-Size is a 2000 made-for-TV film that originally premiered on ABC and was directed by Mark Rosman. The 89-minute film tells the story of a comic fantasy starring Lindsay Lohan and Tyra Banks in a tale of a young girl's toy that is magically transformed into a truly living doll. While based on a fairly unreal premise, the television movie explores some very real issues facing children of the modern era and suggests through the plot that the ideal world is inherently flawed.

Plot
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
Unhappy and lonely after her mother's death, Casey (Lohan) attempts to resurrect her mother, but a minor mishap changes the results of her spell and brings an unwanted doll named Eve (Banks) to life instead. Eve is elated when she first encounters the smells and flavors of real life, but is shocked to realize that she's not the perfect role model she's always considered herself to be.


Casey initially despises Eve – she never wanted this doll in the first place and now she's ruined her chances of bringing her mother back to life. But as Eve grows, she brings out the best in Casey, encouraging her to renew old friendships and spurring personal growth and healing. Even Casey's father (Jere Burns) rises above his grief and builds a better relationship with his daughter as a result of his interaction with Eve.
