Extraordinary drama, captures the universal through the particular. Addictive, moving, soul satisfying.

A big, heart-warming, pitch-perfect rendition of this much-loved classic based on Luisa May Alcott's novel, which manages to address today's feminist agenda without comprising historical authenticity. What a joy to watch the grace and vibrancy of the beautiful women who comprised the March family, including Laura Dern who lit up the screen along with her daughters. Soarse Ronin ruled the screen. Timothy Charlamont was charming. A pleasure to watch Chris Cooper grace the screen. The movie delivered a more than satisfying ending. Finally, it was one of the few films about a writer that made me feel I was observing a real writer. I loved it.
