Kisasszonyok

A film legnagyobb erénye a kiváló szereposztás a fiatal, tehetséges színésznőkre, akik még nem annyira drágák, mint Scarlett Johansson, de csapatban legalább ugyanolyan csajos erőre képesek. Laura Dern és Meryl pedig generációsan szépen kiegészítik őket. Szó szerint öröm nézni, ahogy a lányok élvezik a szerepüket és az imádott "csajos" anyagot. Milyen boldogok, hogy részesei lehetnek. Gondolom, ez részben Greta Gerwig érdeme is, aki imádja a színészeket, és ilyen érzelmes sztorikhoz tehetsége is van. Féltem tőle, de annál inkább simogató volt. Tiszta filmes romantika, kitárt szívvel. A történet kronológiai ugrálása helyenként zavaró volt, de ez nem volt hatással az érzelmi élményre. A mellékszereplő Tracy Letts nagyszerű évet tudhat maga mögött, a könyvkiadó szerepével itt még valamit hozzátesz a ragyogó Henry Ford II. szerepéhez Az aszfalt királyai című filmben. (2020.02.02)

Fresh, playful, at times extremely conversational, but improvisationally well played. The casting is superb (Ronan, Watson, Pugh). It's hard to say how faithful it is to the source material, or rather to the original film, but it meets the contemporary demands of a historical conversational drama with family values and ingredients in the form of relationships and life turning points and decisions very well. Perhaps the only bigger problem is with the flashbacks, which the director puts there quite unsparingly. It takes a while to get your bearings. (2020.06.07)

Through the avalanche of girls chirping and shouting, Little Women shot for sincere deeds, plot twists, or surprised tears. I sensed that the sought-after adaptation might enchant me, but that it would be a versatile spectacle that would soften the hearts of even the most hardened is a surprise of the most pleasant kind. Moreover, the entire cast is perfectly cast, and I would love to see them in all the upcoming costume dramas. This is, after all, a mutual chemistry that comes along once in a generation.

I'll be honest, I was expecting a movie that might change my life. But even though I thought it was a nice flick and I liked the girls, it didn't happen. There is no need to debate the performances, they are so natural and convincing that I completely forgot about all the actresses' previous roles and for a while I just saw them as Little Women. Slightly less perfect, in my opinion, was the script. It made it difficult for me to orient myself in time, so I gave up after a while and instead of enjoying the story I just enjoyed watching the atmosphere, the costumes, and basically a female world where the male element intrudes a little less than we’re used to.

This story of four sisters coming of age in the mid-nineteenth century and figuring out what they want out of life is surprisingly relevant in the twenty-first century. In it, Greta Gerwig gives space to the actresses in particular, who certainly don't let her down, and she handles the touching and funny scenes with complete ease. An honest and entertaining modern adaptation of a literary classic. It's just a pity that it is perhaps unnecessarily cold and aloof in its first half. (2020.01.30)
