I played Possum...

I just watched the movie again for perhaps the 5th time and came here specifically to see the name of the lovely and talented little girl who played Possum and to see if she's done other films. You were wonderful in a wonderful movie.

Gennie James - the most awesome Possum in the cotton blossoms.

I loved your line when Sally Field puts mashed potatoes on your plate, and some slip off onto your biscuit, and Possum says, "RIght on my biscuit!" and looks up and smiles. So cute!
