    Jo March has always been my favorite fictional character she is awkward, loveable, fiery, talented and passionate. The Jo March in this adaption was not that likeable she was awkward, arrogant, static and oddly cold. I feel that the relationships were not developed enough we didn't see enough of the sisters bond, their love and admiration for Marmee and how they opened their home and hearts to Laurie, as the heart of the story is about the sisters more focus was needed on this. Also from viewing this adaption I can't see any relationship or fondness between Laurie and Jo, the proposal seemed to come from nowhere.

    For me Beth's death was confusing due to the simultaneous flashback scenes and seemed to drag on for some time.

    As a standalone movie I feel I would have enjoyed it but the heart of the book was missing for me.

    This was my favourite film of the season, primarily because of the artistry of Greta Gerwig and the skill of the performers. Saoirse Ronan and Emma Watson, were brilliant as I expected them to be, but, Florence Pugh and Eliza Scanlen were new discoveries for me (and I have already begun to enthusiastically follow their filmography. Laura Dean brought a gravitas to the nurturing, generous Marmee that deepened the character. When I saw that Meryl Streep was bringing her legacy to a relatively small role, I knew there were great expectations of this production (I later found out that both she and Saoirse, announced to Greta Gerwig, pre-production, that they WERE going to play those roles. Greta Gerwig is a profoundly intelligent writer and filmmaker, and she attracts equally gifted people with whom to collaborate. This production is rich with insights into the characters that come Louisa May Alcott's own life and borrows from some of her other works. Those who follow me know that I chat with other movie goers as I leave a movie, and, of the 6 people I spoke to, 4 gave the film a straight up 10. Two women (who watched the film together) were confused because they missed the cues as to shifts in the time line, so here's the scoop - the movie begins in the middle of the book, with Jo in New York scrambling to be published. Only once, is a flashback labelled as such, but, the movie continually flips back and forth between the Jo's present and her past. As her present sparks themes from her childhood, we are transported back to those memories. Greta Gerwig is very deliberate in how she places her cuts, long before shooting begins, so don't miss her deliberate artistry. I've already gushed on too long, so I'll end by rating this film a 10 (perfect) out of 10. {Classic Americana Drama.
