Let's have a fangirl freakout over Greta Gerwig's LITTLE WOMEN (Saoirse Ronan, Emma Watson, Florence Pugh, Laura Dern, Meryl Streep, Timothée Chalamet)

Perfect to re-watch this after The Shop Around the Corner.

rewatched tonight & introduced Mr Veg to the wonderful world of the Marchs

mr veg liked it a good deal! i knew he would because it is charming af

and I am so still deeply in love with it that i may watch it again tomorrow

also will go to cvs tomorrow to find a box hairdye similar to jo’s hair in the movie because i crave disappointment lol

chalamet is so 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

I have just watched this, wrapped in a blanket, it is a literal comfort blanket film for me. Saoirse’s eyes after Beth dies! The way Pugh throws the popcorn when the dad comes back! That heartbreaking scene where Laurie told Jo he married Amy!

Ah, it’s so great still. I think I will be watching this one for many years to come. And Chris Cooper is such a great Mar Laurence.

My only complaint is that Bob Odenkirk was a real weird choice for the dad. Chris Cooper was indeed great though.

I am rereading the book after many decades

my mental pictures for the characters are a mashup of the Gillian Jacobs & Greta Gerwig movies - this is how it breaks down in my imagination currently

Winona Ryder = Jo
wotsername Hermione = Meg
Claire Danes = Beth
Florence Pugh = Amy (but sometimes Kirsten Dunst ie when Jo cuts her hair & Amy gasps YOUR ONE BEAUTY I always hear in Dunst’s voice)
Susan Sarandon = Marmee
Odenkirk = Father
Timotheeeee = Teddy/Laurie
Cooper = Mr Laurence
Louis Garrel - Friedrich but only bc i am happier picturing him being hot instead of crusty

and the reason I think i picture Odenkirk is not his look but his voice? i hear Bob’s gravelly voice in the words of father. i think the casting does work but we just dont get many scenes w him unfortunately. if there was more of him, like the long scene in the book where he tells the girls what they mean to him & how theyve grown i think it would make more sense & it IS legit weird seeing him in the movie no argumenr

My only complaint is that Bob Odenkirk was a real weird choice for the dad. Chris Cooper was indeed great though.

oh i thought the reason for the bump here was the "lou alcott was a trans man" viral thread

"LOL it's Bob Odenkirk!" did take me out of the movie but it was such a rush that I wouldn't have had it any other way.

Do we have high hopes for the Barbie movie?

hate this thread, nice as it seems, made by a chronic internet charlatan

lol when jo reveals she cut off her hair and everyone gasps and amy says "your one beauty!"
