Outline essential video
The flaws are easily forgiven in this beautiful version of Louisa May Alcott's novel. A stirring look at life in New England during the Civil War, Little Women is a triumph for all involved. We follow one family as they split into the world, ending up with the most independent, the outspoken Jo (Winona Ryder). This time around, the dramatics and conclusions fall into place a little too well, instead of finding life's little accidents along the way. Everyone now looks a bit too cute and oh, so nice. As the matron, Marmee, Susan Sarandon kicks the film into a modern tone, creating a movie alive with a great feminine sprit. Kirsten Dunst (Interview with the Vampire) has another showy role. The young ensemble cast cannot be faulted, with Ryder beginning the movie in a role akin to light comedy and crescendoing to a triumphant end worthy of an Oscar. --Doug Thomas

 | Solid Feb 29, 2008 |
| Okay, it's a bit schmaltzy, and steeped in our modern views--some of which Alcott shared, but couldn't print--but it's a reasonable interpretation of the book. I thought the casting was very good, and Susan Sarandon did a particularly fine job as Marmee. The most outstanding part of this production is that it succeeds in making John Brooke interesting, Professor Bhaer sexy, and the Professor and Jo's romance believable. Much as I enjoy the book, I think Alcott failed on those last points. | | |  | this is my new favorite movie Jan 27, 2008 |
I first got Little Women from the library and I loved it so much that I bought it several hours later after work.
I am a big fan of the book and I am glad that they stayed very close to it. The scenery and the score tie the movie together beautifully. I like how they stayed away from casting beauty queens and hunks but chose realistic people. This is a must see for anyone who likes the book, period pieces, or just good old-fashioned movies. Marmee can be a little preachy about the rights of woman but she was in the book to. All in all, it is very good entertainment. | | | | For Little Boys too! Jan 18, 2008 |
| Little Women has become my families favorite movie. My 2 sons 11 & 6, as well as my 3 year old daughter absolutely adore this movie. It is a story of generousity in times of hardship and shows the value of holding tight to your family. Jo definately steals the show with her unrequeted love/friendship with Lawri. | | | | easy transaction Jan 7, 2008 |
The transaction was seamless from ordering to delivery. The product arrived in good condition and well ahead of my expected timeline.
Thanks | | | | I love this version Jan 3, 2008 |
Little Women was my favorite book growing up and I have read it several times. I have also own both the Kathern Hepburn and the June Allison versions. I saw this movie in the theater and I just finished watching it again today, 1/3/08 and I still think it is the best film adaptation.
Over all, I think that this version has the best actors, the highest production values, and was beautifully portrayed. It was like they were really those people. True, there were some scenes that weren't in the book but over all it was a faithful adaptation.
Some of the things I especially liked was that the scene were Amy falls in the pond was included. This was a very dramatic event in the book, and was left out of the other 2 versions. I also enjoyed the inclusion of Pickwick papers. I thought all the actresses were close in appearance to the characters and often posed like the engravings of the book. Christian Bale was a very good Laurie. Kirsten Durst was amazing as Amy.
There were 4 things I really didn't like and wondered why they were included in this version. One, Susan Sarandon's portrayal of Marmie. Marmie was not a feminist. I'm guessing Armstrong felt Alcott was somewhat of a feminist in her own right and that's how she justified Sarandon's acting. Meg always wanted a silk dress and for some reason she objected to it in this version. Prof Bhaer did take Jo to the theater,but they had regular seats not ones backstage. Jo drinking and talking to men. This is a very small thing and they do this in all period movies but all the kissing that Jo and Prof Bhaer did while they were in New York- We know that didn't happen.
I don't think that there were ever be a better version, because of the quailty of the actors. | | | Write your own review about Little Women (Collector's Series)
