“It doesn’t seem like Christmas this year without any presents,” sighs Amy at the beginning of this holiday classic — a beloved screen version of Louisa May Alcott’s timeless literary tale, vividly realized by Australian Gillian Armstrong (MY BRILLIANT CAREER). With their father away with the Union Army, the March sisters of Concord, Massachusetts (Winona Ryder, Trini Alvarado, Claire Danes and Kirsten Dunst) and mother “Marmee” (Susan Sarandon) navigate life’s twisting road, through wartime deprivation, first love, heartbreak and burgeoning adulthood. With Gabriel Byrne, Christian Bale, Samantha Mathis and Eric Stoltz. Writing for the BBC, film critic Christian Blauvelt said, “LITTLE WOMEN makes the case that Christmas is a time to be savored, for the experiences you share, not the trinkets that fill your stocking.” DIR Gillian Armstrong; SCR Robin Swicord, from the novel by Louisa May Alcott; PROD Denise Di Novi.
