To me Little Women is Greta Gerwig at her best, she has provided fantastic direction and has given us a fantastic adaptation of the novel. The performances are excellent no one gives a bad performance, with the stand outs being Saoirse Ronan, Timothee Chalamet and Florence Pugh who continues to give great performances in a breakout year. The costume and production design is fantastic and the score provided Alexandre Desplat is phenomenal. The emotional payoffs are fantastic, breaking your heart and then warming it at times.
There are a couple of flaws with the film however, such as: There are time jumps throughout the movie that took me roughly 20 minutes to figure out when there was a flashback or when we were in the present, and the film did feel a little too long at times.
Overall Little Women was an absolute delight to watch, due to its sensational performances, direction and technical applications. I did not expect to love this film as much as I did but i am glad that i did, and gives Greta Gerwig her best film yet.
