I love the part with the editor’s family, Greta Gerwig did a wonderful job adding in that little nod to the little girls who helped get the real Little Women published in the first place. The book would never have been published and exist in the world today if it hadn’t been for the three daughters of LMA’s publisher begging for the ending to the story after they got their hands on the original half-manuscript she submitted

Writing a book is always a collaborative effort, with publishers and others putting their two cents in. I am glad they did.

I always wondered if Jo being told to marry off her heroine was Louisa May Alcott's way of telling us that she was forced to marry off Jo.

Definitely was, Louisa originally wanted Jo to stay single as she had 0 intention to marry and Only wanted to focus on her career. I don’t know if this is true but I believe LMA wanted each of the March girls to represent the basic outcome for a woman’s life during those times. Would you marry for love? Would you marry for stability? Be unmarried. Or be unlucky and succumbed to the dreaded sickness?

I don't know.. Remember when Jo said she didn't want to fall into that trap of women are only for one thing? To sell her story, it would of been a scandal to leave the lady unmarried. Alcott's family were transcendentalists. They had views that many didn't believe in at the time. Jo and Bhaer had much in common and respect for each other. Their love would grow over time. Aunt March has a big house that could become a school. They seem to have joyful times, kinda like she had with her sisters. I think this slowly became love.

I love the way Amy bosses laurie around.

For those confused, the 1994 version allowed viewers to see the story through the eyes of the book. The 2019 version was so we could see through the eyes of Louisa May Alcott. Louisa May Alcott likely didn't want Jo to end up married but was forced to write it in anyway for the same reason that Jo is given by the publisher. This is why the scene leading up to and during Jo confessing to Friedrich is so dramatic and over the top, it's supposed to look silly and unrealistic, because it is. It's fiction. While Book Jo ends up married, the Real Jo is happily single and devotes herself to having a career. We get to see what Louisa May Alcott wanted for her beloved character. It's important for women and girls to understand that if you're genuinely happy and content being single then that's totally fine. Marriage and being in a relationship isn't for everyone. Your happiness is the most important thing, do what is best for you.

I have to say I kinda like this scene in the 1994 little women better. It feels more intimate and real than dramatic with everyone surrounding them in a busy train station having her rush off in a carriage. A quiet rainy road between trees with the only two souls being Jo and Frederick feels more them I think

The dramatic “movie like” quality of this scene is intentional by Gerwig because in reality LMA only wrote it for the fans (as noted by the editor in the scene).

I honestly disagree, I loved this scene because you see how close the sisters and the entire family are, even Laurie’s grandfather who isn’t technically related to any of them, but has still been a loved part of this family for so many years. They bolster Jo’s confidence and help her to see the truth she’s so blind to, and remind her that despite losing Beth, despite being older and more independent from one another, despite all their differences, they’ll still always have her back and want the best for her

I prefer the 1994 version in every way. I think this scene in the 1994 is so much more intimate and romantic as they both realize just how much they mean to each other.

Never seen this movie, but it looks very heartwarming. 💘

It was better with Jo chasing after him in the rain.

This scene is really funny hahahaha

I loved this movie, I watched it with my sister and my mama

....well, if you are about to be married, do it for a full heart at least....

I can't help but feel this scene is really phoney, like "here you go, here is the cheesy,easy to sell romantic scene you wanted.

Louisa May Alcott author of "Little Women" was inspiration at the dawn of the pro-feminist movement. Originally wanting to title her book "Little Vaginas" was considered too risque for turn of the century publishers which were primarily men.

In the book, Amy is kind of spoiled and self centered. Just like when she wasn't allowed to go to the theater, she tossed Jo's novel manuscript in the fire. There are a lot of instances where she threw tantrums just because she doesn't get her way. Still, if they want to portray a better image for Amy in the movie then that's okay, esp. if the viewers haven't read the book.

1994 version seems more serious, and better

2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slow to fulfill His promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.

Such a disappointing adaptation. Nothing redeeming about it.
