Yesterday, thousands of preadolescent girls (and their mothers) lined up at the American Girl Store on 49th Street and Fifth Avenue for the chance to co-star with Abigail Breslin in the upcoming American Girl movie, Kit Kittredge: An American Girl Mystery. The line stretched completely around the block and then some. Vulture stopped by to ask these budding young stars why they're perfect for the roles, what they know about the movie's Depression-era setting, and how they picked out their clothes — and we asked them to perform their audition scene for us, too.
