    • Trivia

    • Goofs
      When Amy discovers that Jo will be her teacher, she sulks twice. However, this is in keeping with Amy's character - if no one noticed her sulking the first time, she would most likely do it again.
    • Quotes

      Laurie: I have loved you since the moment I clapped eyes on you. What could be more reasonable than to marry you?

      Jo March: We'd kill each other.

      Laurie: Nonsense!

      Jo March: Neither of us can keep our temper-...

      Laurie: I can, unless provoked.

      Jo March: We're both stupidly stubborn, especially you. We'd only quarrel!

      Laurie: I wouldn't!

      Jo March: You can't even propose without quarreling.

    Best Version Out There

    Having seen all the versions, including the 2019 version, this is the best out of all of them. Much truer to the book, as are the characters. Totally charming, beautiful dialogue and music.
