Doesn’t this look like a great movie? Judging by the trailer, it’s a fresh adaptation that actually appears to maintain the sensibilities of the original story! The director, Clare Niederpruem, said: “I grew up in Massachusetts so, naturally, Little Women has always been a part of my childhood. My mom passed her love of the classic down to me.”
