ppl really be getting mad bc amy burned jo’s lil book of stories. i get that bc they were priceless and jo worked rlly hard on them but heres the thing. jo’s talent is writing, amy’s is painting / art, and beth’s is playing the piano. these are all materialistic things yk. what im trying to say is: jo knew she could re write any of that just like amy could re paint anything if her work had been burned. it’s not like amy went and burned up one of meg’s babies or anything

My fav things about Little Women (2019)
-one of the best goddamn movies to come out this year.
- Greta gerwig is a fucking visionary.
- I thought the timeline, though a bit complex, was easy to understand. I appreciated the past to have a bright, orange-yellow filter to it, and the present to have cooler tones to it. It made it easier to follow
- I love how Florence Pugh showed a notable change between young Amy and older Amy. You see her maturity grow.
- the shots were very well thought out. Each scene ended at just the right time, you didn’t feel as though there needed to be more or less.
- greta gerwig is a genius! She managed to follow the original story line extremely well, while putting her own twist on the screenplay.
- the costumes were absolutely stunning
- it was S O emotional (obviously the story is, but you can have a fantastic script and still not feel any connection depending on the actors).
- Jo March will forever be one of my favorite literary characters, ane will forever mean a lot to me. Saoirse Ronan managed to portray her perfectly. No complaints.
- there was many parallels through the movie. Example: when Beth was sick when she was younger and when she was older. Gerwig mimicked many of the shots and scenes from the earlier time and paralleled it to the later time and it made me weep like a little baby.
- screw you timothee chalamet during the scene where laurie confesses his love for Jo. It felt so personal
- I love a period piece and always will, but I love how Gerwig didn’t try too hard to modernize the language. They spoke as one would post civil war.
- in past renditions of little women, we don’t see the development of Amy and laurie’s relationship, so it’s a common dislike among audiences, but we see their growth and I can’t help but love it.
- the ending was beautiful and very close to breaking the 4th wall, with it’s nods to the idea of a romantic ending
- I’m going to need to see it again because I just want another chance to delve into this beautiful story.
- I really don’t think I have any complaints.
- every. sister. was. phenomenal. They clearly worked hard and developed who they were as a character. I did NOT feel like I was watching hermione granger talking to lady bird.
- beautiful shots, beautiful story, beautiful actors, beautiful words, beautiful everything.

with all the discourse going on, I just wanted to thank john williams for composing one of the most iconic and amazing movie themes of all time and for bringing star wars to life for the last 40 years. star wars would be nothing without you, thank you legend.
