The First Wives Club (1996)

One of the Funniest Movies Ever Made

[10/10 · 5 April 2020]

Absolutely hilarious whether you have been a first wife, second wife or husband. Perfectly cast and acted. The writing is a riot. Every time I watch it, I laugh just as hard. A brilliant comedy.

Little Women (2019)

O.k. But Not Great

[5/10 · 11 March 2020]

If I had not seen the Winona Ryder version, this would have been o.k.. But there is no comparison. The dialogue is not in keeping with the 19th century and neither is the way some of the characters are interpreted. They remind me of 21st century women, not 19th century women. The locations chosen, along with the interior shots, were excellent. Costuming was also accurate. The bottom line is that it basically lacks charm, the acting was better in the Ryder version, and the movie was not chopped up like this one.

Little Women (1994)

Best Version Out There

[10/10 · 11 March 2020]

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.
