Little Woman Directed by Greta Gerwig

Based on the adored classic novel written by Louisa May Alcott, Little Women retells the story of Meg, Jo, Amy, and Beth March. Meg, beautiful and charming, is the eldest of the four followed by Jo, a talented, rather “boyish” writer and storyteller. Beth is a quiet young lady who is a gifted pianist. Amy, the youngest of the March sisters, is an aspiring artist and painter. With their father serving as a soldier in war, the household is left with not much money to rely on despite their generosity and kindness towards those in need. In a society where women are expected to marry, the girls embark on a journey to discover their own path in life. 

Little Women is a wonderfully adapted fictional story that is warm and uplifting. Each characters’ interests and ambitions reflect their personalities, which was delightful even from the start. You grow to love the story and await what direction it takes. In conclusion, I enjoyed this film and would recommend this watch to anyone who is looking for a narrative with romance, moral, and humor.
