Miss Minoes is a 2001 Dutch family film written and directed by Vincent Bal and co-written and produced by Burny Bos, based on the 1970 Dutch children's novel Minoes by Annie M.G. Schmidt. The film stars Theo Maassen and Carice van Houten as the titular character.

Production

In an interview in 1998, Burny Bos announced that his next film would be an English-language adaptation of Schmidt's 1970 book Minoes, with filming taking place in Canada. However, this version of the film never materialized.

Principal photography took place from late 2000 to 5 March 2001 in Utrecht, Hilversum, Schiedam, Rotterdam, Alkmaar, Amersfoort and Amsterdam. During filming, Carice van Houten discovered she had a cat allergy and had to take allergy tablets during the shoot.
