Entertainment Reviews:
...Beguiling....LITTLE WOMEN brings alive the past so vividly but perceives it through a contemporary sensibility so acute that you have the feeling that you're watching life unfolding before you...
Los Angeles Times
Armstrong and her team so impeccably transported these characters from page to screen that the film, like the book, has become a familiar haven of warmth to be visited again and again.

...[A] glowing new adaptation....Accessibly, appealingly contemporary... -- Rating: A
Entertainment Weekly
The film is, in short, a joy to behold. But beyond the eye-candy, there is real substance in the screenwriting of Robin Swicord. It's her naturalistic approach to a story she clearly loves that brings this beautiful film to life.

The New York Review of Books
An outstanding version of Louisa May Alcott's perennial, one that surpasses even the best previous rendition, George Cukor's 1933 outing starring Katharine Hepburn.
Variety
...[The actresses create] the warmth and familiarity of a real family...
Chicago Sun-Times
Product Description:
The fourth screen adaptation of Louisa May Alcott's classic 1869 novel, LITTLE WOMEN, is given a realistic and rounded treatment by screenwriter Jo Swicord and Australian director Gillian Armstrong, whose perspective emphasizes a feminist tone. The story chronicles the lives of a mother and four daughters and their daily toils during the Civil War in the absence of their father, a Union army chaplain. Winona Ryder (in an Oscar-nominated performance) is vibrant as Jo, the least conventional of the sisters. Christian Bale captures the ebullience of their neighbor, Laurie, whose company Jo enjoys so much it seems inevitable that they will end up together. Kirsten Dunst (at age 12) gives a fiery performance as the younger Amy, proving even more willful than Jo; Claire Danes brings a mysterious otherworldliness to Beth. LITTLE WOMEN, touchingly rendered, has many subtle moments and an appropriately moving visual sense to accompany the narrative. Susan Sarandon and Gabriel Byrne also star in this well-crafted film.
