My mother is so mad about that scene at the beach, just from having seen it in the ads. "People didn't just go to the beach! It was really far back then!"
Numfar! Do the dance of joy.

but that was what Jo used the money she made in NY for. It wasn't a day trip, although the movie does kind of make it look that way.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I'm with Sophia in loving LMA and rereading her regularly. I can't wait to see the movie.

Because books.
I need to reread some of the others -- I fixated on Little Women at an early age. And I've never actually read Jo's Boys or Little Men, which is sort of criminal.

I love Jo's Boys! I mean, I am pretty vocal that Old Fashioned Girl is my favorite favorite, but Little Men and Jo's Boys are worth it! Although I think it is possible Jo's Boys involves a love story between an 18 year old and someone possibly underage... I would have to reread to figure out the ages, but a rough and tumble youth comes back to Jo's house and falls in love (mutually) with Amy and Laurie's daughter. It is also totally possible he is 16 and she is 14. It is interesting because Laurie and Amy are still pretty class conscious, so they really struggle with their daughter falling in. Love with an orphan with few prospects.

Ooh, is that from the book? If so, I will totally bust my mother. (I have never read it; she is a big fan.)

It's definitely in the book.

I thought the trip to the beach was when Beth was so sick, but I don't remember Amy going with them? Man, I need to get to this movie.

Saw both UNCUT GEMS and LITTLE WOMEN this weekend with my sister. Very different films but both excellent and very much in line with their respective directors previous work.
I am not a fan of LITTLE WOMEN in general but I love what Gerwig did with it. And, while it should be taken into consideration that I am currently minutes away from Concord, I was actually thrilled that we had to wait days to get tickets that didn't put us in the front row.
