This is a film adapted from the novel "Little Women" of the same name, telling the story of four sisters who were born in the same family but have different personalities and destinies during the Civil War.
Dignified and gentle Meg who has an ordinary but happy marriage, Joe who loves literature and independence, Beth who is kind and gentle, and Amy who loves painting and an active life.
Although they have different personalities and fates, as family members, they support and love each other, which makes people feel warm.
I love Joe's independence, strength and perseverance, and in a society where men and women are unequal at that time, Joe shows independence and courage to pursue equality that is not inferior to men's.
Also love Beth's kindness and gentleness. She supports her family and loves her neighbors. Even if she got sick from being infected by someone else, she didn't complain. Instead, he treats the world more tenderly and still cares for his family warmly. I have to say that her death brought tears to everyone's eyes.
In short, both versions make people understand the plot of the famous novel Little Women, and also feel the power of Little Women that the author wants to convey.
But after watching the movie, I still want to read the complete novel, maybe this will give me a deeper understanding of every beautiful girl.
Back to filming, though. Actually both are pretty good. Especially in the old version, the timeline is clearer, making it easy to enter the plot. In the latest version, the narrative technique of interludes can really cause confusion for those who are not familiar with the plot. Besides, Joe didn't actually have sex with Laurie. But the latest version, as if Joe still has nostalgia, led Laurie to be suspected of becoming a "scumbag". The plot is a bit cliché, and it loses the flavor that it should have.
