Little Women is a 1933 film directed by George Cukor.It is one of many, many adaptations of Louisa May Alcott's School Study Media novel, Little Women. The time setting is The American Civil War and after. The story centers on the March family of Concord, Massachusetts. As the film opens, man of the house Mr. March is off fighting in the war, leaving his wife "Marmee" March to look after their four daughters. Their daughters are: Meg, the oldest, very responsible and a sort of backup mother to the others. Jo (Katharine Hepburn), headstrong, tomboyish, a would-be writer. Beth, the nicest, gentlest sister, beloved by all the others even as they snipe at each other. Amy (Joan Bennett), the youngest, and quite the opposite of Jo, as she is very feminine and something of a spoiled brat.The family tries to make ends meet while worrying about Mr. March off in the war. Their neighbor Mr. Laurence welcomes home his grandson Laurie, who soon falls for Jo. Jo finds herself having to resolve her feelings for Laurie and how they conflict with her hope for a career. Meanwhile, Beth falls ill.Max Steiner composed the music. | |

Right Behind Me | |
| Little Women (1933) / int_170128e9 | comment |
Right Behind Me: When Jo is looking at the picture of Laurie's grandfather, she tells Laurie that she likes his grandfather, even though he looks stern and ready to bark at them. Of course, Laurie's grandfather is right behind Jo when she says this, and chooses that moment to make his presence known. | |

Establishing Character Moment | |
| Little Women (1933) / int_7febc23b | comment |
Establishing Character Moment Meg’s goodbye to her charges, showing her maternal nature. Jo's Banister Slide at her aunt's house and her "Christopher Columbus!" oath establishes her as energetic and tomboyish. Amy gets in trouble for goofing off in class, then insults all of the other girls at their school. She is established as a snob. | |

Maiden Aunt | |
| Little Women (1933) / int_958f1f57 | comment |
Maiden Aunt: Aunt March (Edna May Oliver), fussy maiden aunt to the March sisters. She bosses Jo around but can be generous, like when she gives each of them $1 (not too bad for the 1860s) for Christmas. | |
