All around the world, there are A LOT of movies with great and exceptional performances by children!

I put all genres here and most of the titles are movies with best child actresses and actors EVER: Shirley Temple, Dakota Fanning, Abigail Breslin, Pamela Franklin, Jodelle Ferland, AnnaSophia Robb, River Phoenix, Haley Joel Osment, Freddie Highmore, Brad Renfro, Lukas Haas, Macaulay Culkin etc.

My basic criteria for the list, except for the great acting, was that NOBODY hadn't more than 16 YEARS OLD when these movies were finished! I probably forgot several excellent performances by some young actors/actresses, so please give me your suggestions to make this list better.

I put the names of the child actors and/or actresses who were amazing in their roles, below every movie on the list.

P.S. Thanks to my friends Boris Tomić and Ivan Pavlović, who helped me with some movies listed here.
