Anna's a Good Sport

Oscar winner Anna Paquin likes acting, but she has a tiny complaint. "Not all roles for children have definite personalities," she says. "They're just there. I've been very lucky." Having played two of the saddest girls in moviedom--The Piano's Flora and the young Jane Eyre--Paquin, 14, keeps the melancholy theme going in her next film, Fly Away Home. She plays Amy, who moves in with her estranged inventor father after her mother dies in a car crash. She has to teach wild geese she finds to fly, or a wildlife officer will clip their wings. At least she gets to cuddle something soft.
