Little Women

     I introduced Little Women released in 2019. Its director is Greta Gerwig. The film is about the lives of the Merch sisters: Jo, Meg, Amy and Beth. It is seventh film adaption of the 1868 novel of the same name by Louisa Alcott. Saoirse Ronan plays Jo. Through especially Jo, the story goes on. This character is long for becoming an writer and behave like a boy.

      The film has three of good things. First, it tells us women have a right to decide their own future through four sisters. Second, from the fact that it is said Jo is Louisa Alcott and Jo married but Louisa didn’t, the film is made, respecting Jo and Louisa Alcott, because Jo in the film is expressed well as Louisa as well as Jo of the novel by showing Jo’s past and present. Third, not only women but also men can enjoy the film, because, from the viewpoint of Laurie, a neighbor of the Merchs, the film tells us how men are oppressed by the reason you are a man. Also, a bad thing about the film is that it is sometimes hard for audience to understand if some scenes are about past or present. Actually, when I watched it for the first time, I couldn’t understand it. 

     From these things above, I’ d give four stars to the film, because I believe it suits 2020 in spite of the old story. Therefore, Little Women is a wonderful movie which every generation can enjoy.
