I think I underestimated the women of that era

In the nineteenth century, Joe's work consisted of reading for his aunt, working as a tutor, continuing to write at night, and then working as a teacher in London. Her life experience is much richer than mine. Not to mention the education she received, as well as her parents who are upright, educated and benevolent people, and the enlightenment her family environment brought her.

In those days, she seized the opportunity to read, study, make friends with a sincere heart, and later went to London to meet like-minded people and chat with various hotel guests. After experiencing material poverty, during the war when my father joined the army abroad, my sister became seriously ill and even died later. In order to cater to the market, I wrote detective novels, and after my sister left, I wrote "Little Women" based on my real experience. …

I have to say, she's been through a lot more than me. I also want to have more life stories.

    The 94 version was wrong, but it was surprisingly good. The soundtrack is beautiful, the scenery is beautiful, and the actors are beautiful. The director of this version is also a woman.

    The narration is smooth, the characters are vivid, and some adaptations are even higher than the original while restoring the original work. The romantic plot and the part that speaks for women should be added in the 1990s, adding a special sense of the times to this classic original work, so that it becomes more intimate. Maybe because the original author didn't want to find a partner for the heroine, he handled it a little hasty and sloppy, but the movie adds wonderful details to the story of Qiao and the professor. You can feel that the window of Qiao's soul was opened by the professor. The heart resonates deeply under the lead of Wen Zhe. And the story of Laurie & Amy also has a small seed of carriage dialogue, and it is more natural to come together later than the original. Maybe it's not 100% restored, or all the characters are perfect, but I really like this version.

Little Women quotes

  • Jo: Late at night my mind would come alive with voices and stories and friends as dear to me as any in the real world. I gave myself up to it, longing for transformation.

  • Jo: [as Jo and Laurie dance awkwardly at Belle Gardner's ball] I'm sorry! Meg always makes me take the gentleman's part at home! It's a shame you don't know the lady's part!
