This is an adaptation of the book(s) of the same name by Louisa Marie Alcott, written shortly after the American Civil War. It was a semi-autobiographical novel about her experiences growing up with her sisters and becoming a writer at a time when it was taboo for a woman to write anything but letters. There was, of course, a film adaptation done in 1994 starring Wynona Ryder, but this is a modern, alternative adaptation of the story with new actresses in the starring roles, including Saoirse Ronan (playing Jo, who was the character analog of Louisa), Emma Watson, Florence Pugh, Eliza Scanlen, Laura Dern (playing the matriarch of the family). The movie was written and directed by Greta Gerwig. She made the decision to start the movie with the women as adults, and then use parts from the first novel when they were girls growing up in New England as flashbacks. For those who are not familiar with the story, this method of telling it can make the movie hard to follow. That said, I do not think the movie deserves one star like some of the reviewers have given it, because the acting, the cinematography, and the overall story are all extremely good. For those who get the Blu-Ray, the movie looks and sounds great in high-definition. There are about an hour's worth of extras, give or take, including several behind-the-scenes featurettes and a feature on the Alcott house, which has been preserved and saved multiple times from being torn down. A decent amount of material for those who like going through the bonus features. While I think it would have been better to tell the story in a linear fashion, it is still a very good, and extremely well acted adaptation of the story. Definitely worth checking out.
