Description
A joyful and spirited adaptation of one of the best-loved novels of all time.
'Stylish, humorous and compassionate, this is a lovingly crafted adaptation of an American classic... re-establishes the book's evergreen credentials... a clean, crisp, faithfully episodic adaptation that successfully evokes both the love and the tensions between the four sisters'
'Anne-Marie Casey's adaptation is pacey and full of life, trimming lots of the story's fat and focusing on key characters and incidents so as to keep things moving in only two hours of action'
'A loving staging of the story... both wholesome and exhortatory... Casey bottles the story's magic, which sweeps us from the trials of the Civil War to the buzz of New York... charming'
'A classic, charming retelling of the novel that doesn't seek to do anything other than celebrate the story... full of gentle humour, humanity and emotion... a bit of traditional charm, great storytelling and the perfect family show'
'A boldly traditional adaptation... carefully crafted... thoughtful and multilayered'
'Heartbreaking... Anne-Marie Casey's script bounces along briskly, oscillating between quick-fire quips and moments of poignancy... as comforting and filling as Christmas dinner'
'Beautiful... makes us look again at Louisa May Alcott's radical rite of passage classic'
'A classic retelling of the beloved novel, celebrating the story in a manner which is true to the text... Anne-Marie Casey's adaptation hits all the big moments of the book... a well-presented, highly respectful interpretation of a classic tale... incredibly hard to resist'
Anne-Marie Casey is a screenwriter, novelist and playwright, whose novel An Englishwoman in New York was praised as a ‘sophisticated and beguiling tale... witty and wise... full of quotable one-liners and clever observations that manage not to obscure the considerable heart of the novel’ (Irish Independent).
