Non-animated film recommendations for a six year old

I feel like my daughter exclusively watches animated films (and TV shows) and I'd really like her to watch some 'real' films. Has anyone any recommendations that would work for a six year old?

A Dolphin’s tale is a really lovely film - based on a true story. Not animated and a good story. Really enjoyable

I forgot about Ella Enchanted.

Matilda should be on the curriculum, don’t know of a child that doesn’t love it!

My DD hates Matilda! In fact she hates Roald Dahl.

She currently loves the Secret Garden (with Maggie Smith). Theres a new version that should be out with Colin Firth but was delayed because of Covid.

DD also loves the new and old mary poppins, live action DIsneys (Beauty and beast, cinderella, dumbo and aladdin - Mulan is another one on hold due to Covid)

Both Nanny McPhees as well.

She loves musicals so we watch things like Singing in the Rain, calamity Jane, greatest showman etc. We watched the theatre version of Hairspray over the weekend which she loved.
