Little Women - 💥💥💥💥

Director: Greta Gerwig
Writers: Greta Gerwig and Louisa May Scott
Release Date: 26th December 2019
Hot Rating: 💥💥💥💥

In her adaptation of Louisa May Scott's iconic novel Little Women, director Greta Gerwig surpasses her previous success to provide viewers with a film that radiates pure human emotion. Familiar Gerwig collaborators are equally brilliant in their performances, with Saorise Ronan excelling as Jo March, whilst Timothee Chalamet is a revelation as her friend, Laurie. These actors are the meer tip of what is a solid iceberg of acting talent, featuring superb supporting roles performances from Laura Dern as Maurie and Chris Cooper as Laurie's grandfather. Without a careful direction, such talent may have been lost in the midst of frocks and wigs, but Gerwig balances all aspects of the film, including Alexander Derplatz score and Jess Gonchor's luscious production design. It's a song that bookworms and cinephiles will have heard many a time, but this new adaptation delivers a well-tuned recital that is sure to consolidate its story's popularity.
