I ...Have you read <i>Little Men</i> or <i>Jo's Boys</i> yet? I love Professor Bhaer, and I think it's because I've read <i>Little Men</i> about twice as many times as I've read <i>Little Women</i> and he's quite wonderful in it.<br /><br />I also love this movie, and I think I might try showing it to my kids around Christmas time.Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-264908870056091707.post-37700101456290142292013-10-19T08:49:38.612-04:002013-10-19T08:49:38.612-04:00This was a wonderful review, Maddie Rose! My siste... This was a wonderful review, Maddie Rose! My sisters and I have been watching this movie since we were all very young, so I kind of feel like I know it forwards and backwards. : ) I've never actually read the entire book (it's a bad habit I have, reading part of a book and then not finishing it when I realize I don't like it as much as I had hoped....) but what I did read of it I found a bit... sappy (for lack of a better word), and while I do sort of like the movie, it's not really one of my favorites. I've never been too terribly fond of Jo for some reason, and I agree with you that in the book she seemed way too over-the-top boyish and feisty, which can get really annoying. I also more or less share your sentiments concerning Laurie-- while I don't particularly like him, it just would have made so much more sense for him to marry Jo rather than Amy. It was as if he thought since he couldn't have Jo, Amy was the second-best he could do. I think the whole situation is just WEIRD. Also it did seem like Miss Alcott was trying to throw us for a loop by sticking the Professor in there at the last minute.<br /> But aside from all that, I absolutely LOVE the soundtrack! It's one of my favorites ever and I actually just bought it last month so now I can listen to it all the time. : )<br /> I thoroughly ejoyed this review!<br /><br /> ~EmmaEmma Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00215503772898813587noreply@blogger.com
