Good submitted by DL on July 17, 2019, 2:16pm Great acting.
Good submitted by TLW1998 on July 27, 2019, 12:06am Good acting. Great story.
Not the 2019 movie submitted by rickmktg on February 23, 2020, 3:24pm 2018 PBS
Pretty Good submitted by majean on August 17, 2020, 2:14pm I had read this was the most faithful adaptation of the novel, and I agree. That's probably because they had 3 episodes rather than a single film's length to work with. The last episode seemed rushed, though, like they suddenly realized they were running out of time and had to finish. Still 4/5 stars from me as an adaptation.
Little Women submitted by angie. on July 21, 2021, 7:49pm I would give this 3/5, the acting is great but the story is so boring. The book is so much better.
The best adaption? submitted by Julia13 on August 16, 2021, 7:39pm With the format of three television episodes instead of single feature film, this adaptation of Little Women is able to explore more facets of the original work than other adaptations before and after it. Excellent casting of the March sisters and Marmee add the necessary ingredients for an excellent portrayal of the book on screen.
lovely adaptation submitted by zaraz on July 1, 2023, 1:37am a lovely mini series adaptation that is very true to the book. different to the film adaptations (and probably the adaptation that stays the most true to the book if that’s what you’re looking for) but still very good in its own right! definitely worth watching if you’re a little women fan.
