    Greta Gerwig said herself that it's very interesting that everyone chooses to hate Amy, but she's the only one who ever says what she really wants. Also, on the love triangle front, my opinion is that Laurie saw Jo's companionship and love because he had never experienced it before. He was too obsessed with Jo to even look at Amy for more than two seconds, and when Jo was gone, he finally saw Amy for her true self.

    I know everyone loved Amy's marriage speech but Jo's one in the attic about women's purpose being more than to fall in love but then she's so lonely really hit me hard when I sent to see this in cinema. It was so relatable especially in the modern sense. I think this version is a really good retelling but Winona is still the best Jo. She was perfect. I wish I could combine her and this movie.

    • @demontrash
      @demontrash  2 роки тому +50

      Jo's speech was also fantastic! I think each speech fit each sister perfectly Amy's speech was pragmatic vs. Jo being an idealist and perfectly shows the difference in their personalities.

      As someone who is aromantic (but sapphic sexual) and an artist/writer who values family and friendships above all else, Jo always hits me the hardest, because I see myself in her. I’ve never wanted love, and I honestly don’t feel lonely. but often times you see your friends and family with their partners and they have someone to bear the weight with, someone to rely on, it makes you feel like maybe something is broken, and it makes you feel alone. I also know what it is like to be consumed by something like art, the scene where Amy burns Jo’s writings is one of the most anger inducing scenes for me ever LOL.

    I grew up with the 1994 adaptation, so it will always be my favorite; however, I love so many parts of this film. I love Florence Pugh but I still think she was to old to play Amy as a kid, and the constant timeline back and forth was too much.
