I started this movie with the thought that it might be too boring to watch. The composition of the opening scene is beautiful, the snow scene, Christmas, the dress, the actors are all beautiful.
In the opening chapter, Meg's hair was burned by Jo, and she said, "I will become an old maid that no one wants." It can be seen that the importance of women in social dances to appearance at that time. Later, Joe sold his hair for money. Women could sell the most important things at that time, and it could also highlight Joe's character.
The protagonist's family is very kind, the neighbors have nothing to eat, and they will aggrieved themselves to give bread, cream, oranges and the like to the poor. Beth also sneaked potatoes into the neighbors. It was also very anxious to see a neighbor's child with scarlet fever. The mind is very free, and the mother has always put family and education in an important position.
Joe and Laurie are more like children who lacked the company of the opposite sex. They are in harmony and happy, and naturally like each other. But Joe remained sane, which was inconsistent with her thoughts.
Joe came to New York and met the professor. The feeling of soul mate made the two hit it off, but because of the identity of the soul mate, Joe would also be dissatisfied with the content of some of the professor's behavior.
Joe and the professor's kiss at the opera is interrupted by prop thunder. When the two met in the finale, there was a sudden thunderstorm and heavy rain, and the two kissed again.
Although there will be conflicts between the sisters in the plot, Amy will throw Joe's manuscript into the fire because everyone will not take her to the opera. Joe is angry and Laurie goes skating without Amy. Amy is so anxious that he falls into the icy river. Joe immediately goes to save the two to clear up the past.
Sisters get angry with each other, but don't really want to see each other endangered. Laurie's rescue, Laurie's handsome appearance, and the significance of Laurie's existence as a heterosexual in Amy's entire childhood also made her like this brother silently.
Laurie's confession to Joe was rejected, and Amy met Laurie who was studying music in France and was pursued. Being pursued by someone she likes also minds her as Joe's replacement, and directly scolds Laurie for going back to a career worthy of respect.
Many details have not been shown in the movie, and the novel still needs to slowly understand the characters of some other people. Look too shallow.
I think this is a work that all women should read. Women's views on freedom, dignity, and career in that era. The heroine refused to wear silk clothes because those clothes were made by slaves. They were still women with no social status at that time, and they have always protected the status of black slaves.
