ironymaiden: Animation of woman in movie theater surrounded by laughing people (watching alone)
since the Bay is showing as many Oscar nominated films as it can, i finally took myself to see Little Women. i'd heard raves about it, but i'd also heard that there were some changes beyond breaking up the linear timeline of the book.

actual text conversation as i was walking home:
C: So. Are you angry?
Me: Yes

a sort of minor thing, and the thing that made me angry - spoilers for the adaptation and the public domain book )

and just, in general, i felt like Gerwig's agenda made an adaptation that didn't represent the substance or the spirit of the book. based on the critical response, it must be better if you don't know anything going in. i'd shelve this adaptation with Peter Jackson's The Hobbit.
