Little Women
Winona Ryder (in an Oscar nominated role) and Academy Award winner Susan Sarandon (1995 Best Actress, Dead Man Walking) star in this "affectionate, superbly acted" (Los Angeles Times) family favorite. With her husband off at war, Marmee (Sarandon) is left alone to raise their four daughters, her LITTLE WOMEN. There is the spirited Jo (Ryder); conservative Meg (Trini Alvarado, Paulie); fragile Beth (Claire Danes, William Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet); and romantic Amy (played at different ages by Kristen Dunst, Wag the Dog and Samantha Mathis, Broken Arrow). As the years pass, the sisters share some of the most cherished and painful memories of self-discovery, as Marmee and Aunt March (Mary Wickes, The Man Who Came to Dinner) guide them through issues of independence, romance and virtue. Gabriel Byrne (End of Days), Eric Stoltz (TV's "Chicago Hope") and Christian Bale (The Portrait of a Lady) co-star in this "handcrafted valentine" (Newsweek) of a film.

Great movie I wonder what disease afterwards the sister beth came down with I kind of watched it in like two different day settings and not like full out. I know the first one was the forgot the name but was a high fever like flu today but back in that day they had no....but It was a blessing her mom had the skills to pull her through that. i remember reading in high school about it I just forget what they called that disease fever she got. I believed it was passed on by that family she was helping and feeding from touching that baby who may have given her it. But before she died I loved her statement a lot. Like I think she was never like the outspoken and brave one like the others but heading to death and heaven it showed she always were, but she never took to be and do so in any of her dreams. I mean she loved the piano and was talented with that so she didnt dream you know.....where Im going with that. Like all of them had talents even the mother! Especially, not being a single mother but raising them she was due to him being off in the war fighting like most fathers and uncles did back in the day. I forgot how young the youngest one was and when I didnt watch it all in one setting in one day the next day im like who is that and Im like duhhhh I completely forgot ha.... I love how Joe knew she liked the one guy from her childhood she didnt love him and was willing to say no to being asked to be wed to him. Thats was deep becasue I thought she did and that was going to happen. I also love what happened to him and the young sister and I thought negatively how now a-day movies turn out with jealousy and in this movie and time frame just showed how much positively things were back then with family and sibling in the family. Her sister who really liked him was not jealous that her sister married her childhood great best guy friend. I just thought that was awesome!!! I wasnt trying to think negatively but due to how movies are and how the world and family are now with jealousy thats why I was thinking that she was about to be mad and jealous of her own sister due to that. For the daughter who had the baby and sister I forgot her name ha having twins with no good meds back then she sure didnt seem too much in pain ha forreal. Ha her remarks told the story but not the pain. During slavery movies and very old movies it showed how much painful having a baby with no meds were and all of them I could just feel how bad it was with no pain and even with never having kids myself. Great movie and classic movies just make you want to dress more proper in life. I do now dress more moderately but I still like you know short shorts and a lil tiny belly showing but I think they look so much better in properness and just you know like idk hard to explain. I just let say would have rather been born then than now because these days you cant show a lil skin and not be targeted as a bad person or wanted sex or so forth. I understand the two show different messages but my type of style I do not even want sex nor attention. Esp as a virgin.
Perhaps we should state the obvious: like many films based off of classic stories, this is not a flawless execution of the media that inspired its creation. At the risk of being long-winded when tackling multiple themes at the same time a decision was made when making this film to include some information that is crucial to the overarching plot without giving much context as to why it is worth taking note of in the first place. The most obvious example of this is the pace in which romantic and intimate relationships manifest themselves over the course of this film; ‘Laurie’ appears to make haphazard and shallow decisions regarding the individuals he chooses to pursue a formal courtship with. Likewise, his interest in Jo (which is not reciprocated) is heavy handed and can easily be mistaken as Jo's primary reason for moving an incredibly long distance away from her family. Hold this thought, however, because I will be coming back to it.
If I was to be asked what my favorite thing about this movie is I would comment on the effort made to make this story more relatable to an audience that can't imagine having the same experiences as the characters portrayed. More specifically, this is done by metaphorically creating a bridge between issues and conflicts (and experiences) that are unique to characters in this time period and the one we are currently existing in. The formality of events and traditions that have since then been criticized as grossly conservative (IE: Going to dances with the expectation and intention of finding an intimate partner) paint a clearer picture of this stories’ context. Other points of contention and breaks from this tone as they are usually rather silly - like when one of the characters gets their hair burned off with a flat iron - work In making this story reach a wider variety of viewers.
On the topic of context, this is a bold criticism of sexist ideals that have ultimately kept women in traditionally subservient positions in society. This film cuts no corners in narrating a story that encourages women to think more of themselves and never sell themselves short. Characters the reinforce these aforementioned ideals are written in as casual villains or inconveniences and perhaps even more importantly: They are usually alone in the thoughts they are actively expressing and immediately challenged in whatever the most appropriate way is to do so; This is most often in the form of a snippy or sarcastic one-liner, and this maintains the sluggish and sometimes mundane tone that propels this story up to its conclusion.
I think considerably highly of the actors in This film, and their performances strike me as incredibly grounded. There are scenes here and there that draw some emotional investment, but for the most part the emotions and behaviors portrayed feel remarkably average when compared to other characters these actors are perhaps more well-known for. This adds a layer of authenticity to this film that may otherwise have been lost if it turned out to be defined by overzealous and equally self-deprecating qualities and dispositions.
In regards to my first point, the most important difference between this movie and Alcott’s novel is the totality of character development that is shown to happen over time as this story reaches its climax and plateaus to its end. The novel focuses primarily on changes that reflect the growth of Jo whereas this movie makes an ambitious attempt to show the growth of Jo and all of her sisters simultaneously. It goes without saying that in order to do this without becoming cumbersome that Armstrong must metaphorically “trim the fat” and be meticulous when showing what are merely snapshots of a character's life story. It is truly up to the opinion of the viewer whether this was a successful attempt or not at paying an equal amount of respect to a group of women in a world that would prefer they take up the least amount of space possible. Greene doesn't just rise to the occasion in this respect: she lifts it completely off of the group in a fundamentally significant way.
In conclusion, I have always been a bit of a sap for cheesy stories that make me love the characters as much as I love watching their life unfold. This film turned me into a puddle of mush and this opportunity is one I don't take for granted. if there is a woman in your life that you feel has not been appropriately honored over the course of their existence, then this film will affect and move you in a way that is simply unexpected and welcomed with open arms and kindred spirits:
I would recommend!
P.S. I totally recommend the TV MIni series of this novel that was made in 1995 and features Colin Firth. It is simply incredible and enchanting!
