A few words about "Little Women"

In fact, I originally wanted to write a short review, but the number of words is a little too much, so let's put it here

When jo says "childhood is over", you feel her growth and the sense of loneliness that growth is destined to bring. Amy balances reason and emotion from beginning to end, and the complex and contradictory feeling of being shadowed by her sister is also very satisfying. Ren Gongqing, who doesn't have the shadow of "other people's children"? Beth's purity is also very moving, but I feel that the role of Meg is a little out of point, and the love between her and her husband is a bit inexplicable, and this kind of What is the help behind the choice? There seems to be no explanation in the film. Maybe she is tired of the social life of the upper class, but how can it be smooth sailing with her husband? How do you, and herself, define a lady as a lady? I haven't read the original book of "Little Women", so I wonder if it's more clearly explained in the novel, and this literary work is so well-known in the United States that the handling of the blank space is more ingenious? It may also be because of the space requirement, to solemnly portray both Jo and Amy, it is inevitable to cut down on other people's stories? Anyway, I just thought that this character was portrayed too flatly. Some people commented that Emma Watson was beaten by other actresses in the film. I don't think it's all to blame for Miss Hermione~
