Cedie also known as Cedie: Ang Munting Prinsipe (means Cedie: The Little Prince) is a 1996 Filipino family film loosely based on the popular anime Little Lord Fauntleroy which in turn based on the children's novel of the same name by English playwright and author Frances Hodgson Burnett. The film was directed by Romy Suzara who also directed the film adaptation of Princess Sarah. The film starred Tom Taus as Cedric Erol.
Plot
The story concerns an American boy named Cedie Erol, who at an early age finds that he is the sole heir to a British earldom and leaves New York City to take up residence in his ancestral castle, where, after some initial resistance, he is joined by his middle-class mother, the widow of the late heir. His grandfather, the Earl of Dorincourt, intends to teach the boy to become an aristocrat, but Cedie inadvertently teaches his grandfather compassion and social justice and the artless simplicity and motherly love of Dearest warms his heart.
