Summary |
In her classic 1868 novel about love, family and becoming a woman, Louisa May Alcott told the dramas and adventures of Mrs March and her four "little women" - spirited Jo, beautiful Meg, fragile Beth and romantic Amy. In this 1994 film version directed by Gillian Armstrong, Winona Ryder and Susan Sarandon lead an extraordinary cast in what many critics called the most glorious and passionate adaptation of the timeless tale yet. |
