Little Women (2019, Greta Gerwig)

The Stop Button Posted by on Apr 3, 2020

Little Women has two parallel timelines. There’s the present, starting in post-Civil War New York City with teacher and pulp writer Saoirse Ronan living in boarding house (where she also teaches). Then it flashes back to Ronan’s life seven years earlier, at home in rural Massachusetts; she’s the read more

Little Women (2019)

The Best Picture Project Posted by Alyson on Jan 14, 2020

My little boy asked me what Little Women was about; he’s often curious about the movies I go see. I explained to him simply that it’s about four sisters growing up together during the Civil War. They help each other and others through hard times and celebrate the happy times. They play, laugh, figh read more

Critica Retro Posted by Lê on Jul 20, 2019

As Quatro Irmãs (1933) / Little Women (1933) Cristóvão Colombo! Essa é a expressão usada pela heroína Jo March sempre que fica surpresa ou maravilhada. Eu também usei a expressão enquanto assistia à versão de 1933 de “As Quatro Irmãs”, uma história emocionante sobre vida read more

Little Women (1949)

4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Aug 11, 2018

In the recent days, I gained a new appreciation of June Allyson as a screen talent and in her own way she pulls off Jo March quite well though it’s needlessly difficult to begin comparing her with Katharine Hepburn or Winona Ryder. Meanwhile, Mervyn LeRoy was a capable director of many quality films read more

Little Women (1933)

4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Aug 10, 2018

I still remember visiting Louisa May Alcott’s home in Massachusetts and of course, my sister read her magnum opus innumerable times when we were younger but for some reason, maybe it was a fear of what the title suggested, I still never cracked it open during my childhood. But I’ve alwa read more

25 Days of Christmas: Little Women (1949)

Journeys in Classic Film Posted by on Dec 10, 2017

Originally published December 4th, 2012 I decided to watch all three film adaptations of Little Women as a subset of my 25 Days of Christmas.  I’ve seen them all separately, but this will be the first time I watch them in a small time-span allowing me to note similarities and differences in to read more

Little Women (1933)

Journeys in Classic Film Posted by on Dec 3, 2017

The last in my series of reviews on the three adaptations of Little Women is the 1933 George Cukor version.  This one is widely considered the de facto interpretation of Louisa May Alcott’s novel, and watching it after seeing the ’49 version I realized that the latter is simply a remake read more

25 Days of Christmas: Little Women (1994)

Journeys in Classic Film Posted by on Dec 3, 2015

Originally published December 15th, 2012 Part two of my three-part series of Little Women reviews discusses the 1994 version of Louisa May Alcott’s classic.  This is the Little Women I grew up with folks, and it’s probably the more star-studded of the three to modern audiences (which is read more
