Amazon.com essential video
The flaws are easily forgiven in this beautiful version of Louisa May Alcott's novel. A stirring look at life in New England during the Civil War, Little Women is a triumph for all involved. We follow one family as they split into the world, ending up with the most independent, the outspoken Jo (Winona Ryder). This time around, the dramatics and conclusions fall into place a little too well, instead of finding life's little accidents along the way. Everyone now looks a bit too cute and oh, so nice. As the matron, Marmee, Susan Sarandon kicks the film into a modern tone, creating a movie alive with a great feminine sprit. Kirsten Dunst (Interview with the Vampire) has another showy role. The young ensemble cast cannot be faulted, with Ryder beginning the movie in a role akin to light comedy and crescendoing to a triumphant end worthy of an Oscar. --Doug Thomas

Leah Wall (Hanau, Germany)
This is a wonderful adaptation of a classic story. The acting is superb as well as the costuming. Heart-warming, this is the kind of movie I would love to share with my daughter.

5 out of 5 stars A modernized adaptation of the classic novel, yet a gem nonetheless!   December 15, 2008

If you're a purist, you'll probably scoff at this 1994 movie adaptation of the classic novel by Louisa May Alcott. It is not a faithful adaptation, and a rather modernized version. But having said that, I love this adaptation all the same because of the wonderful acting by the ensemble cast.

The movie tells the story of a New England family during the Civil War - there's Marmie [Susan Sarandon, my favorite Marmie of all the adaptations],Meg, Jo [Winona Ryder who actually really shines in this role], Beth [Claire Danes], and Amy. Dad is a Union Army Chaplain and away on the battleground and so the band of women fend for themselves. Their lack of material comforts is never seen as much of a problem [they portray a once-prosperous family fallen on hard times] and then there's next door neighbor Laurie [an utterly charming Christian Bale]who becomes infatuated with the strong-willed Jo.

The acting is this movie adaptation is perhaps one of the finest if taken as an ensemble performance - all the actors shine in their roles, especially Sarandon as Marmie, Ryder as Jo, Danes as the ethereal and fragile Beth, Bale as Laurie, and of course, Gabriel Byrne as Prof. Bhaer. The sets, costumes and cinematography are absolutely beautiful and so is the beguiling score.

I make it a point to watch the movie adaptations of Little Women once a year - these movies just make me feel good and happy, especially during the holidays. Highly recommended to fans of Little Women and period dramas.

Carrol Greenwood

I mistakenly rated this a 5 star before realizing this is the version I returned,did not want, and ordered the one with the cast of the original I saw, starring Margaret O'Brien, June Allyson, Liz Taylor, etc., which in my memory rated a 5. I am waiting for time to view it when I will not be interrupted by caregiving for an ill family member. Thank you.

I think it's a very well done movie, with great actors..I love the period and how they captured their lives in such a true spirit.
